Tumor-penetrating therapy for β5 integrin-rich pancreas cancer
The iRGD tumor-penetrating peptide can achieve tumor specific drug delivery but whether and how it can penetrate into desmoplastic tumors is unknown. Here, the authors show that β5 integrin expression on tumor cells, mediated by CAFs-derived TGF-β, is required for iRGD penetration into the desmoplas...
