Figure Lengend Snippet: Synthesis and biological validation of a DHE-derived photoaffinity probe. ( A ) Schematic representation of the ABPP (Activity-Based Protein Profiling) workflow. The process includes cell lysis, probe incubation, UV-induced cross-linking, click chemistry-mediated biotinylation, and streptavidin-based enrichment followed by LC-MS/MS or SDS-PAGE analysis. ( B ) Synthetic route of the DHE-Probe. Reaction conditions: (a) diazirine–alkyne linker, (b) K 2 CO 3 , DMF, 65 °C, 16 h. The final probe includes a photo-cross-linker and an alkyne handle for target capturing. ( C , D ) Comparison of the anti-proliferative effects of DMSO, DHE, and DHE-Probe (40 μM) in T24 ( C ) and 5637 ( D ) bladder cancer cells. Cell viability was measured 24 h post-treatment. Data are presented as Mean ± SD ( n = 3). **** p < 0.0001 vs. DMSO group ( t -test or one-way ANOVA).
Article Snippet: Cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA), including the T24 cell line (ATCC Cat. No. HTB-4) and the 5637 cell line (ATCC Cat. No. HTB-9), and were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (100 U/mL; Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).
