Abstract

Mitochondrial enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO-A) is known to be overexpressed in prostate cancer (PCa) cells. Herein, we have developed a two-photon probe (PCP-1) for selectively targeting and imaging the MAO-A in PCa. Supported by enzymatic docking and in vitro experiments, PCP-1 showed efficiency to visualize MAO-A overexpressing cells and inhibit their growth and metastasis potential.
