Bioactivity | TP-TRFS is a highly selective and the first two-photon fluorescent probe of thioredoxin reductase (TrxR)[1]. |
Invitro | TP-TRFS (10 μM) exhibits weak fluorescence (Φ = 0.57%, absolute quantum yield), and after TP-TRFS (10 μM)) is incubated with TCEP (1 mM), a dramatic fluorescence increment at 490 nm is observed (Φ= 22.31%, absolute quantum yield) and the fluorescence intensity of the test system increased by B40-fold within 3 h[1]. |
In Vivo | TP-TRFS has the ability to visualize the TrxR activity in vivo, and also provides a mechanistic link between stroke and the loss of TrxR function, which may open up a new therapeutic window of stroke via the regulation of TrxR function[1]. |
