Mitochondrial NIR imaging probe mitigating oxidative damage by targeting HDAC6

Abstract

Despite the apparent copious fluorescent probes targeting mitochondria, the development of low cytotoxic probes is still needed for improving validation of mitochondrial function assessment. Herein, we report a novel cyanine-based NIR fluorescent probe, T2, which selectively targets mitochondria with significantly low toxicity by modulating the intracellular redox status. Additionally, T2 inhibits oxidative stress-induced cell death in cortical neurons. This study provides new insight into developing low-toxic mitochondrial imaging agents by regulating redox homeostasis.
