Application
Zinquin has been used to detect intracellular zinc.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Zinquin is a membrane-permeant fluorophore. It is used to detect zinc in cells by UV fluorescence. Zinquin ethyl ester can be used to monitor the change in intracellular concentrations of Zn2+ in thymocytes and hepatocytes. The ester is excited at 368nm and emits at 490nm.

The epithelium lining the airways is a physical barrier as well as a regulator of physiological and pathological events in the respiratory system. Damage to the epithelium by oxidants released from inflammatory cells is a critical factor in the pathogenesis
The supplementation of zinc increased the apoptosis of airway smooth muscle cells by increasing p38 phosphorylation.
