Thus, TSPO has become an extremely attractive subcellular biomark for the early detection of disease states overexpressing this protein and for the selective delivery to mitochondria of drugs and probes. Moreover, the effort in the design and synthesis of new, more specific and effective TSPO ligands proves to be very valuable. All these topics have been addressed in the special issue UR - http://www.mdpi.com/books/pdfview/book/555 UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/61226 ER -
