Dimeric Lectin Chimeras as Novel Candidates for Gb3-Mediated Transcytotic Drug Delivery through Cellular Barriers

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
Receptor-mediated transcytosis is an elegant and promising strategy for drug delivery across biological barriers. Here, we describe a novel ligand–receptor pair based on a dimeric, engineered derivative of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa lectin LecA, here ...
