Application

Phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate hydrate has been used as a tau aggregation inhibitor (TAI) to study its effects on Tau secretion in neuroblastoma cells. It has also been used as an anionic phthalocyanine to study its effects on telomere G-quadruplex stabilization.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Inhibitor of protein aggregation, including α-synuclein, and the formation of protease-resistant prion protein.

Fluorescein, and derivatives of fluorescein, are often used as fluorescent probes and sensors. In systems where pH is a variable, protonation/deprotonation of the molecule can influence the pertinent photophysics. Fluorination of the xanthene moiety can alter the molecule's pKa such

The chemiluminescence (CL) signal immediately appeared when a hydrogen peroxide solution was injected into an iron-phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acid (Fe-PTS) aqueous solution. Moreover, the CL intensity of Fe-PTS decreased by adding l-tyrosine. Based on these results, the determination of trace amounts

Inhibition of telomerase activity through stabilizing telomere G-quadruplex with small chemical ligands is emerging as a novel strategy for cancer therapy. For the large number of ligands that have been reported to inhibit telomerase activity, it is difficult to validate

Tauopathies are characterized by cerebral accumulation of Tau protein aggregates that appear to spread throughout the brain via a cell-to-cell transmission process that includes secretion and uptake of pathological Tau, followed by templated misfolding of normal Tau in recipient cells.
