Glycosylated Cell‐Penetrating Peptides (GCPPs) [PDF]
AbstractThe cell membrane regulates the exchange of molecules and information with the external environment. However, this control barrier hinders the delivery of exogenous bioactive molecules that can be applied to correct cellular malfunctions. Therefore, the traffic of macromolecules across the cell membrane represents a great challenge for the ...

Potent antitumor effects of cell-penetrating peptides targeting STAT3 axis
To date, there are no inhibitors that directly and specifically target activated STAT3 and c-Myc in the clinic. Although peptide-based inhibitors can selectively block activated targets, their clinical usage is limited because of low cell penetration and/

Uptake of cell‐penetrating peptides in yeasts [PDF]
The uptake of different cell‐penetrating peptides (CPPs) in two yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans, was studied using fluorescence HPLC‐analyses of cell content. Comparison of the ability of penetratin, pVEC and (KFF)3K to traverse the yeast cell envelope shows that the cellular uptake of the peptides varies widely.

Functionalization of osmium arene anticancer complexes with (poly)arginine : effect on cellular uptake, internalization, and cytotoxicity [PDF]
Attaching peptides to metallodrugs may result in improved biological properties of the complexes. The potential use of cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) as cell delivery vectors is attractive, since directed cell uptake of (metallo)drugs remains a major ...
