Ligands of the Mitochondrial 18 kDa Translocator Protein Attenuate Apoptosis of Human Glioblastoma Cells Exposed to Erucylphosphohomocholine

Background: We have previously shown that the anti-neoplastic agent erucylphosphohomocholine (ErPC3) requires the mitochondrial 18 kDa Translocator protein (TSPO), formerly known as the peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PBR), to induce cell death via the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.
