A hypothetical mechanism capable to reflect the features of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore channel

Advances in Redox Research
Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) channel plays a central role in cell death because it mediates the effect of a sudden large opening of the inner mitochondrial membrane.
