Mitochondria as a Key Intracellular Target of Thallium Toxicity

• Highlights the differences between the toxic effect of thallium and the action of other heavy metals on cells and mitochondria
• Explains why the toxicity of thallium in experiments in vivo is higher than that of bivalent heavy metals
• Discusses the applied in vitro model when searching for new inhibitors of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore
