Cellular Reprogramming Using Protein and Cell-Penetrating Peptides
Recently, stem cells have been suggested as invaluable tools for cell therapy because of their self-renewal and multilineage differentiation potential. Thus, scientists have developed a variety of methods to generate pluripotent stem cells, from nuclear transfer technology to direct reprogramming using defined factors, or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Considering the ethical issues an...
متن کاملEnhanced cellular uptake of lactosomes using cell-penetrating peptides
Polymeric micelles that are composed of synthetic polymers are generally size controllable and can be easily modified for various applications. Lactosomes (A3B-type) are biodegradable polymeric micelles composed of an amphipathic polymer, including three poly(sarcosine) blocks and a poly(l-lactic acid) block. Lactosomes accumulate in tumors in vivo through the enhanced permeability and retentio...
متن کاملMechanisms of Cellular Uptake of Cell-Penetrating Peptides
Recently, much attention has been given to the problem of drug delivery through the cell-membrane in order to treat and manage several diseases. The discovery of cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) represents a major breakthrough for the transport of large-cargo molecules that may be useful in clinical applications. CPPs are rich in basic amino acids such as arginine and lysine and are able to tra...
متن کاملCellular delivery of noncovalently-associated macromolecules by cell-penetrating peptides.
Cellular and nuclear delivery of biomolecules is limited by low membrane permeability. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) can be covalently linked to cargos to improve cellular internalization. Our work indicates that arginine-rich CPPs are also able to interact with a variety of cargos, including DNA, RNA, proteins and nanomaterials, in a noncovalent manner and subsequently effect their delivery...
متن کاملCellular Internalization of Quantum Dots Mediated by Cell-Penetrating Peptides
Nanomaterials have been utilized in biomedical applications for many years because of their unique properties such as quantum confinement, surface plasmon resonance, and superparamagnetism. These applications are expected to advance diagnosis and therapeutics. Fluorescent nanomaterials, such as quantum dots (QDs), were exalted in biological imaging and tracking, and trended to replace protein-b...
