Simultaneous differentiation and visualization of mitochondrial biothiols dynamics are significant for understanding cell metabolism and their related diseases. Herein, a multisitebinding fluorescent probe(MCP) was developed for simultaneous sensing of mitochondrial Cys, GSH and Hcy from three fluorescence channels for the first time. This novel probe exhibited rapid fluorescence turn-on, good water-solubility, high selectivity and large spectral separation for discriminating Cys, GSH and Hcy with 131-, 96-, 748-fold fluorescence increasement at 471, 520, 567 nm through different excitation wavelengths, respectively. Importantly, this probe was successfully applied to simultaneous monitoring of mitochondrial Cys, GSH, and Hcy in live cells and zebrafish from three fluorescence channels,promoting the understanding of the functions of Hcy, Cys and GSH.展开更多
