Microscopic Photosensitization: A New Tool to Investigate the Role of Mitochondria in Cell Death

Active involvement of mitochondria in cell death has been well-documented, but local apoptotic signaling between subsets of mitochondria has been poorly explored to date. Using mitochondrially localized CMXRos as a photosensitizer coupled to laser irradiation by confocal laser scanning microscopy, w...
