The first off-on probe, Mito-TRFS, for imaging the mitochondrial thioredoxin reductase (TrxR2) in live cells was reported. In a cellular model of Parkinson's disease (PD), Mito-TRFS staining discloses a drastic decline of the TrxR2 activity, providing a mechanistic link of TrxR2 dysfunction to the etiology of PD.
