The compositions of the present disclosure provide novel fluorogenic probes for use in the specific imaging and detection of mycobacteria species, and in particular β-lactam- antibiotic resistant. Specificity for mycobacteria is conferred on these probes by incorporating a moiety that specifically targets the unique trapping mechanism of the DprE1 found in in mycobacteria. Accordingly, only Mycobacteria species that express both a β- lactamase and DprE1 enable both the activation of the caged fluorescent probe, and the affixing of the released fluorescent probes to the bacteria cells through the functioning reduction-covalent binding mechanism. Advantageously, such a probe is able, at its most sensitive, to allow single mycobacterium detection.
The present disclosure is in relation to the field of nanotechnology and cancer therapeutics. In particular, the present disclosure relates to fluorescent platinum based compounds. The disclosure further relates to synthesis of said fluorescent platinum based compounds, nanoparticles and compositions comprising said fluorescent platinum based compounds/nanoparticles. The disclosure also relates to methods of managing cancer by the fluorescence changes between aforesaid platinum based compounds and corresponding free ligands, nanoparticles and compositions.

Disclosed are new small molecules having a 4-methylpyrrrolo[l,2-a]pyrimidine- 8-carboxamide core structure and the uses thereof for modulating glucocerebrosidase activity. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the small molecules which may be administered in methods of treating diseases or disorders associated with glucocerebrosidase activity, including neurological diseases and disorders such as Gaucher's disease and Parkinson's disease. The small molecules may contain a fluorophore or may be conjugated to a fluorophore in order to prepare a fluorescent probe for use in high throughput screening methods to identify new modulators of glucocerebrosidase activity via fluorescence polarization.
