Understanding disease-related processes at the molecular level is of great importance for the prevention and treatment of diseases. However, due to the lack of effective analytical tools, it is challenging to gain insight into the relationships between a specific bioactive molecule and the associated disease. Herein, a rapid turn-on resorufin-based fluorescent probe platform utilizing the HClO-specific oxidative cleavage of the amide was constructed, allowing the visualization of HClO in vitro and in vivo. These probes could quickly respond to HClO (< 50 s) with high selectivity and sensitivity (12-153 nM). The probe REClO-6 had the fastest response (30 s) and the highest sensitivity (12 nM), and was successfully used for the imaging of endogenous and exogenous HClO in cells and zebrafish. Notably, it was also successfully applied to the imaging of HClO in mouse arthritis and solid tumors. This study provided a rapid imaging analysis tool, which would be used to investigate the relationship between HClO and the disease-related physiological processes.
