New Insights in the Design of Bioactive Peptides and Chelating Agents for Imaging and Therapy in Oncology
Many synthetic peptides have been developed for diagnosis and therapy of human cancers based on their ability to target specific receptors on cancer cell surface or to penetrate the cell membrane. Chemical modifications of amino acid chains have significantly improved the biological activity, the st...
