Detection of nucleoside derivatives has paramount importance because they are the essential biomolecular units for all life. Herein, we report a host-guest approach by using a fluorescent tetraphenylethene-based octacationic cage as host and 8-hydroxypyrene-1, 3, 6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt (HPTS) as guest and fluorescent indicator to form non-fluorescent 1:1:1 host-(endo-exo)guest complex in water. This new host-(endo-exo)guest complex can be successfully used for detecting nucleosides (e.g., ATP and GTP), DNA (e.g., sm-DNA), and antibiotics (e.g., Penicillin G) with off-on fluorescence response via a competitive host-guest exchange with HPTS as exo-guest in water. Furthermore, this on-off-on fluorescent host-guest complex is also used for cell imaging based on ATP concentration in HeLa cells. Therefore, this study not only provides insight into the construction of a supramolecular probe with on-off-on fluorescence via host-guest complexation and exchange in solution, but also realizes a universal method for detecting and monitoring biomolecules.
