Double-activation of mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening via calcium overload and reactive oxygen species for cancer therapy
Background: Calcium ions (Ca2+) participates in various intracellular signal cascades and especially plays a key role in pathways relevant to cancer cells. Mitochondrial metabolism stimulated by calcium overload can trigger the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP), which...
