Methods of utilizing compounds of general formulas I and II as modulators and affinity labels of the MPTP complex are elucidated. Furthermore, methods for modulating the activity of the MPTP complex, methods for determining the presence of a component of the MPTP complex, and methods for identifying an active agent that modulates the activity of the MPTP complex, specifically methods for identifying an active agent that modulates the activity of the MPTP complex by interacting with the VDAC1 component are identified. Moreover, novel compounds of general formulas I and II are disclosed.
