Abstract

An emissive terbium complex has been conjugated to a C₁₂ chain, Lys-Arg₇, Arg₇, a tetraguanidinium cation and human serum albumin; two-photon excitation at 720 nm facilitated microscopy studies revealing cell localisation profiles with the oligo-guanidinium conjugate localising in mitochondria but causing apoptotic cell death (IC₅₀12 μM), the C₁₂-amide complex giving rise to necrotic cell death in skin fibroblasts (IC₅₀ 8 μM) and the peptide conjugates and the methyl ester generating punctuate cytosolic intracellular distributions.
