Development of an ENPP1 Fluorescence Probe for Inhibitor Screening, Cellular Imaging, and Prognostic Assessment of Malignant Breast Cancer

Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is involved in bone metabolism and insulin resistance, hydrolyzes 2',3'-cGAMP (a STING ligand that promotes innate immunity), and is associated with cancer stemness in breast cancers and glioblastoma. Therefore, ENPP1 is considered a candidate therapeutic target and/or biomarker for early diagnosis of malignant tumors. In this study, we...
