Reversing protonation of weakly basic drugs greatly enhances intracellular diffusion and decreases lysosomal sequestration

For drugs to be active they have to reach their targets. Within cells this requires crossing the cell membrane, and then free diffusion, distribution, and availability. Here, we explored the in-cell diffusion rates and distribution of a series of small molecular fluorescent drugs, in comparison to p...
