Abstract
Histamine is a biogenic amine with fundamental roles in circulatory and immune systems. We report a fluorescent small molecule (Histamine Blue) for imaging intracellular histamine in live basophils and macrophages. Histamine Blue is a fluorescent mesoionic acid fluoride that turns on upon reaction with histamine. The selective response of Histamine Blue enabled the visualization of intracellular histamine under different physiological conditions.
