Liver injury is a serious threat to human health, and γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) is proven to be one of the clinical biomarkers of liver injury. The conventional detection method of GGT activity in serum suffers from the complex operation, expensive equipment, and incapability of dynamically monitoring in biological samples. Herein, in consideration of the excellent characteristics of fluorescent probes, such as simple operation, high sensitivity, low cost, and good biocompatibility, a novel fluorescence detection method for GGT based on the combination of probe Rho-GGT and glutamic acid 5-hydrazide (glutamlhydrine) was designed. This method was applied to liver injury model mice to construct the relationship between the fluorescence signal, GGT activity, and the occurrence or development stage of liver injury. The fluorescence detection method combined with clinical indexes could more accurately characterize the situation of liver fibrosis, and evaluate the efficacy of liver fibrosis drugs, which could help provide important information for accurate diagnosis and early treatment of liver injury. The successful implementation of this project would promote the accurate in situ detection of GGT in liver injury, which was expected to guide pre-clinical diagnosis and clinical practice.
