CYP2J2 as an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-expressed vital cytochrome P450 isoform participates in the metabolism of endogenous polyunsaturated fatty acids. Its abnormal expression and function are closely related to the progress of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Herein, an ER-targeting near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe ER-BnXPI was developed for monitoring CYP2J2 activity, which possessed a high selectivity and sensitivity toward CYP2J2 among various CYP450 isoforms and exhibited excellent subcellular localization for ER. Then, the CYP2J2 variation behavior under the ER stress model was imaged by ER-BnXPI in living cells and successfully used for the in vivo imaging in different tumors that well distinguished tumor tissues from para-cancerous tissues. All these findings fully demonstrated that ER-BnXPI could be used as a promising tool for exploring the physiological function of CYP2J2 and provided some novel approach for the diagnosis and therapy of CYP2J2-related vascular inflammation and cancer.
