Abstract
A silicon rhodamine (SiR)-based imaging probe was developed to monitor mitochondrial inner membrane viscosity in real-time.
- Mitochondrial autophagy is crucial for maintaining cellular health and quality control of mitochondria.
- Real-time visualization of mitochondrial inner membrane viscosity is important for understanding mitophagy.
- The new imaging probe allows for reliable observation of mitophagic processes.
- This approach offers new insights into how mitochondria are remodeled during autophagy.
