Description

6-Bromo-2-naphthyl b-D-glucuronide is a fluorogenic substrate for phosphatases and acid phosphatases. The activity of 6-bromo-2-naphthyl b-D-glucuronide is detected by the release of 6,6'-dibromofluorescein (6,6'-DBF) from the compound. Microarray profiling was used to evaluate gene expression profiles in human blood vessels following incubation with 6,6'-DBF. Gene expression profiles were also obtained from parotid tissue cells following incubation with 6,6'-DBF. This method has been shown to be an effective method for detecting cellular responses to endothelial cell injury in tissues that are not readily accessible for histological examination.
