Retro-inverso carbohydrate mimetic peptides with annexin1-binding selectivity, are stable in vivo, and target tumor vasculature.

Previous research suggests that carbohydrate mimetic peptide IF7 (IFLLWQR) has an excellent targeting property to annexin1 (Anxa1), a specific marker on the tumor endothelium. However, IF7 is susceptible to proteolysis and has a poor stability in vivo. We prepared a D-amino acid, reverse sequence pe...
