The abnormal expression of sialic acids (SAs) on cells and tissues is closely related to various pathophysiological states. Here we applied phenylboronic acid (PBA) functionalized graphitic carbon nitride fluorescent quantum dots (PCQDs) with sizes from 3 to 5 nm in efficient and selective labeling SAs on the surface of living cells and tissues. With abundant PBA in their structure, the water soluble PCQDs showed the relative SA level on the cell surface via selectively and efficiently staining different cell lines in 30 min and revealed that M1 macrophages may express more SAs on their surfaces compared with M0 and M2. The distinct demarcation of cancerous and para-noncancerous areas on cancer tissue sections was showed by PCQDs staining. PCQDs with their high selectivity, stable photoluminescence, low cost, and nontoxicity can be an ideal SA fluorescent probe for living cells and tissues. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
