Cell-Penetrating Peptides—Mechanisms of Cellular Uptake and Generation of Delivery Systems

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2010
The successful clinical application of nucleic acid-based therapeutic strategies has been limited by the poor delivery efficiency achieved by existing vectors. The development of alternative delivery systems for improved biological activity is, therefore,

Uptake of cell‐penetrating peptides in yeasts [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2005
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.

Potent antitumor effects of cell-penetrating peptides targeting STAT3 axis

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
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/

Regression/eradication of gliomas in mice by a systemically-deliverable ATF5 dominant-negative peptide. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Malignant gliomas have poor prognosis and urgently require new therapies. Activating Transcription Factor 5 (ATF5) is highly expressed in gliomas, and interference with its expression/function precipitates targeted glioma cell apoptosis in vitro and in ...

Applications of Cell-Penetrating Peptides for Tumor Targeting and Future Cancer Therapies

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2012
Cell-penetrating peptides provide a highly promising strategy for intracellular drug delivery. One relevant clinical application of cell-penetrating peptides is cancer therapeutics. Peptide based delivery could increase the uptake of drugs in tumor cells

Characterisation of cell‐penetrating peptide‐mediated peptide delivery [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2005
Cell‐penetrating peptides such as antennapedia, TAT, transportan and polyarginine have been extensively employed for in vitro and in vivo delivery of biologically active peptides. However, little is known of the relative efficacy, toxicity and uptake mechanism of individual protein transduction domain–peptide conjugates, factors that will be critical

Non-metabolic membrane tubulation and permeability induced by bioactive peptides. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
BACKGROUND:Basic cell-penetrating peptides are potential vectors for therapeutic molecules and display antimicrobial activity. The peptide-membrane contact is the first step of the sequential processes leading to peptide internalization and cell activity.
