Abstract
The integrity of mitochondrial function is fundamental to cell life, therefore, the detection and understanding of changes taking place in the organelle may allow faster diagnosis. It turns out that Raman spectroscopy is able to detect changes related to mitochondrial dysfunction much faster by tracking changes in redox state of cytochrome. Our research was focused on selecting the appropriate conditions for the use of MitoBADY (2220 cm-1), both in living and fixed endothelial cells. Interestingly, in our research we were able to observe, Raman signature of life band (1604 cm-1) which also characterizes the functioning of mitochondria. The relationship between the 1604 cm-1 and 2220 cm-1 bands also suggests that the reporter can also be an indicator of mitochondrial activity.
