Cell-penetrating peptides and oligonucleotides: Design, uptake and therapeutic applications
Regulation of biological processes through the use of genetic elements is a central part of biological research and also holds great promise for future therapeutic applications. Oligonucleotides comprise a class of versatile biomolecules capable of modulating gene regulation. Gene therapy, the concept of introducing genetic elements in order to treat disease, presents a promising therapeutic st...
متن کاملCell-penetrating peptides, electroporation and drug delivery.
Certain short polycations, such as trans-activating transcriptional activator and oligoarginine, rapidly pass through the plasma membranes of mammalian cells by a mechanism called transduction, as well as by endocytosis and macropinocytosis. These cell-penetrating peptides can carry with them cargos of 30 amino acids, more than the nominal limit of 500 Da and enough to be therapeutic. An analys...
متن کاملCell-penetrating peptides and their therapeutic applications
The process of introducing drugs into cells has always proved a major challenge for research scientists and for the pharmaceutical industry. The cell membrane is selectively permeable and supports no generic mechanism for their uptake. A drug must be either highly lipophilic or very small to stand a chance of cellular internalization. These restrictions mean that the repertoire of possible drug...
متن کاملIntracellular Delivery of Proteins with Cell-Penetrating Peptides for Therapeutic Uses in Human Disease
Protein therapy exhibits several advantages over small molecule drugs and is increasingly being developed for the treatment of disorders ranging from single enzyme deficiencies to cancer. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), a group of small peptides capable of promoting transport of molecular cargo across the plasma membrane, have become important tools in promoting the cellular uptake of exogeno...
متن کاملCell penetrating and transytosing peptides: powerful strategies for oral insulin delivery
Insulin is essential for type 1 and advanced type 2 diabetes to maintain blood glucose levels and increase the patient’s longevity. Frequent subcutaneous insulin injections are usually associated with pain, local tissue necrosis, infection and nerve damage. Recently, a number of new delivery methods such as oral insulin delivery have been developed to overcome these limitations and increase pa...
