| Targets |
Mitochondrial thioredoxin reductase (TrxR2) is the primary molecular target. The probe is designed to selectively detect TrxR2 activity within the mitochondria of living cells.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In TE buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl and 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.4) at 37 °C, mito-TRFS (10 μM) exhibits its maximum absorption at approximately 375 nm[1]. In TE buffer (φ=0.34), mito-TRFS exhibits strong emission at approximately 480 nm when excited at 375 nm, but weak emission at 438 nm[1].
Mito-TRFS is the first off-on probe for imaging the mitochondrial thioredoxin reductase (TrxR2) in living cells. The probe is turned on in the presence of active TrxR2, producing a fluorescent signal that correlates with enzyme activity. |
| ln Vivo |
There is no specific in vivo activity data available for this compound. However, as a fluorescent probe for enzyme activity, similar compounds are typically used for real-time imaging of TrxR2 activity in live cells and animal models.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A standard protocol involves incubating Mito-TRFS (e.g., 5 uM) with isolated mitochondria or purified TrxR2 enzyme and its substrate (NADPH) in a buffer solution (e.g., PBS, pH 7.4) at room temperature. The increase in fluorescence intensity over time is measured using a fluorescence spectrophotometer.

| Cell Assay |
Immunofluorescence[1].
Cell Types: HeLa cells. Tested Concentrations: 1 μM. Incubation Duration: 2 h . Experimental Results: Mito-TRFS is localized predominantly in the mitochondria of live cells. A general protocol involves seeding cells in a confocal dish and incubating with Mito-TRFS (e.g., 1-10 uM) for 20-30 minutes at 37degC. After washing, live-cell imaging is performed using a confocal microscope. Mitochondrial co-localization can be confirmed using a commercial mitochondrial tracker. |
| Animal Protocol |
A typical protocol for in vivo imaging involves intravenous or intraperitoneal injection of an optimized concentration of Mito-TRFS into a live animal model. After a suitable circulation time (e.g., 30 minutes to 2 hours), the animal is placed under an in vivo imaging system to monitor TrxR2 activity-induced fluorescence.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
General PK properties for small molecule probes are not applicable, as these compounds are typically used for acute imaging. However, formulation can be in PBS or saline with co-solvents like DMSO for in vivo use.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
General toxicity for imaging probes is considered low. For Mito-TRFS, no specific toxicity studies are reported. In similar experiments, incubation with up to 10 uM for 24 hours in cell models shows good biocompatibility and no significant cytotoxicity.
