TSPO Ligand-Linker Conjugates 1, comprising a translocator protein (TSPO) ligand and a linker, is instrumental in synthesizing mitochondria-targeting autophagy-targeting chimera (AUTAC). This compound binds TSPO on the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), facilitating the degradation of malfunctioning mitochondria and proteins through mitophagy, thereby enhancing mitochondrial function. It holds potential applications in research related to mitochondrial dysfunction, encompassing neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and diabetes [1].
