High-affinity peptide ligand LXY30 for targeting α3β1 integrin in non-small cell lung cancer

Abstract Background α3β1 integrin is a promising cancer biomarker and drug target. We previously identified a 9-amino-acid cyclic peptide LXY30 for detecting α3β1 integrin on the surface of live tumor cells. This study was undertaken to characterize LXY30 in the detection, cellular function, imaging...
