DiD is a lipophilic fluorescent probe.{47764} It is rapidly incorporated into phospholipid cell membranes and has been used to label the plasma membrane and endocytic organelles in bovine aorta endothelial cells and rat hippocampal slices.{47764,47765,47766} DiD has also been used to assess proliferation in prostate cancer cell lines by flow cytometry, where high DiD-expressing cell populations are associated with lower proliferation.{47764} DiD is not cytotoxic and can be detected in subcutaneously implanted PC3 cells in vivo after three weeks. It displays absorption/emission maxima of 650/670 nm, respectively.{47767}
