  6. 9. Internalization mechanisms of cell-penetrating peptides : Structure-activity relationships, cellular distribution and membrane toxicity studies

    Author : Mats Hansen; Ülo Langel; Mark Lindsay; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell-penetrating peptides; mechanisms; toxicity; structure-activity relationship; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi;

    Abstract : Transport of substances with pharmaceutical potential over the plasma membrane has been pushed a great step forward with the discovery of short cationic polypeptides, known as cell-penetrating peptides (CPP). Since then, the internalization mechanism and cargo delivery properties of CPPs has been extensively studied. READ MORE

  7. 10. Cell-penetrating peptides for oligonucleotide delivery : Design and uptake mechanisms

    Author : Staffan Lindberg; Ülo Langel; Arwyn Jones; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell-penetrating peptides; gene therapy; scavenger receptors; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : The use of oligonucleotides for gene therapy has the potential to efficiently treat a plethora of diseases with minimal side effects. However, the use of oligonucleotides is hampered by the properties of these molecules, which make it essentially impossible for them to permeate the cellular membrane. READ MORE
