Mechanisms 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 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 کاملBinding and Uptake of RGD-Containing Ligands to Cellular avb3 Integrins
The cyclic peptide, cRGDf[N(me)]V, binds to the avb3 integrin and can disrupt binding of the integrin to its natural ligands in the extracellular matrix. In this work, the ability of a water-soluble, fluorescently labeled variant of the RGD-containing peptide (cRGDfK-488) to bind to integrins on human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) and subsequently undergo endocytosis was characte...
متن کاملOptimization of RGD-Containing Cyclic Peptides against αvβ3 Integrin.
We have previously reported the use of one-bead-one-compound (OBOC) combinatorial technology to develop a disulfide cyclic, Arg-Gly-Asp-containing octapeptide LXW7 (cGRGDdvc), that targets αvβ3 integrin with high affinity and specificity. αvβ3 integrin is known to be overexpressed in many cancers and in tumor vasculature, and it has been established as a cancer therapeutic target. To further op...
متن کاملMulticomponent Synthesis of Dihydropyridinone Containing Cyclic RGD Peptides
Inhibition of binding of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins fibrinogen and vitronectin to the IIbβ3 and vβ3 integrins, respectively, is of great pharmaceutical interest. Both receptors recognize the RGD tripeptide sequence, which is present in these natural ligands. The development of antagonists for these integrins is therefore often based on this tripeptide unit and several cyclic RGD pept...
