  1. 1. Vectorization of oligonucleotides with cell-penetrating peptides : Characterization of uptake mechanisms and cytotoxicity

    Author : Samir EL Andaloussi; Ülo Langel; Alain Prochiantz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; CPP; endocytosis; splice correction; siRNA; PNA; cargo delivery; M918; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi;

    Abstract : The hydrophobic plasma membrane constitutes an indispensable barrier for cells in living animals. Albeit being pivotal for the maintenance of cells, the inability to cross the plasma membrane is still one of the major obstacles to overcome in order to progress current drug development. READ MORE

  2. 2. Cell-penetrating peptides as delivery vectors for oligonucleotides and proteins : Studies on applications and toxicity

    Author : Peter Järver; Ülo Langel; Gilles Divita; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have for a little bit more than a decade been employed as delivery vectors for a wide range of cargoes, ranging from gold particles to entire plasmids. Although CPP are well studied and utilized in numerous publications, our knowledge about CPP mediated transport is still poor. READ MORE

  3. 3. Cell-penetrating peptides : Uptake, stability and biological activity

    Author : Tina Holm; Ülo Langel; Roland Brock; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Neurochemistry and Neurotoxicology; neurokemi och neurotoxikologi;

    Abstract : Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have emerged as a group of remarkable delivery vectors for various hydrophilic macromolecules, otherwise excluded from cells due to the protective plasma membrane. Unbiased conclusions regarding e.g. READ MORE

  4. 4. Cell-penetrating peptides in protein mimicry and oligonucleotide delivery : Applications and mechanisms

    Author : Henrik Johansson; Ülo Langel; Michael Gait; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; peptide; oligonucleotide; cell-penetrating peptide; PNA; splicing; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi;

    Abstract : The plasma membrane functions as a barrier, restricting entry of hydrophilic pharmaceutical agents. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are capable of transporting bioactive cargos into the cell and have consequently been extensively investigated for their mechanism of entry and capability to deliver various cargos spanning from peptides to plasmids.
