DAF-2 DA

DAF-2 diacetate is a more cell-permeable version of DAF-2, a sensitive fluorescent indicator for the detection and bioimaging of nitric oxide (NO). Upon entry into cells, DAF-2 diacetate is hydrolyzed to the less cell-permeable DAF-2 by cellular esterases, thus preventing loss of signal due to leakage of DAF-2 diacetate from cells. In the presence of oxygen, DAF-2 reacts with NO to yield the highly fluorescent triazolofluorescein. The intracellular fluorescence (generated by DAF-2 diacetate) can be readily monitored using the standard FITC filter set. DAF-2 diacetate can be utilized in cells which produce small amounts of NO, such as endothelial cells, as well as in cells which generate large amounts of NO, such as macrophages.

Polarization of hMDMs induces changes in gene expression and cell surface marker expression. M2 hMDMs had significantly lower intracellular nitric oxide in comparison with M0 hMDMs, paralleling gene expression changes. Intracellular NO production was measured using the NO reactive dye DAF-2 DA.
