Exploring mitochondrial phototoxicity: Mechanisms, measurement, and mitigation
Phototoxicity, induced by light exposure, presents a major challenge in fluorescence microscopy, particularly when studying mitochondria. These organelles are sensitive to damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during imaging. This review discusses the basic principles of phototoxicity, focusing primarily on the effects of phototoxicity on mitochondrial function and structure. It also explores strategies to mitigate damage, including optimized imaging techniques and specialized probes, and considers cases where phototoxicity is utilized for therapeutic purposes. The need for advanced imaging methods to balance damage prevention and mitochondrial research is emphasized.
期刊介绍:
Biochimie publishes original research articles, short communications, review articles, graphical reviews, mini-reviews, and hypotheses in the broad areas of biology, including biochemistry, enzymology, molecular and cell biology, metabolic regulation, genetics, immunology, microbiology, structural biology, genomics, proteomics, and molecular mechanisms of disease. Biochimie publishes exclusively in English.
Articles are subject to peer review, and must satisfy the requirements of originality, high scientific integrity and general interest to a broad range of readers. Submissions that are judged to be of sound scientific and technical quality but do not fully satisfy the requirements for publication in Biochimie may benefit from a transfer service to a more suitable journal within the same subject area.
