Construction of Red Fluorescent Dual Targeting Mechanically Interlocked Molecules for Live Cancer Cell Specific Lysosomal Staining and Multicolor Cellular Imaging

We have designed and synthesized red fluorescent mechanically interlocked molecules with dual targeting functionality for live cancer cell specific active targeting followed by selective internalization and imaging of malignant lysosomes along with real-time tracking, 3D, and multicolor cellular imaging applications.
