Self-Assembling Peptides as Potential Carriers for the Delivery of the Hydrophobic Anticancer Agent Ellipticine

Self-assembling peptides have emerged as new nanobiomaterials in the areas of nanoscience and biomedical engineering. In this category are self-assembling, ionic-complementary peptides, which contain a repeating charge distribution and alternating hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues in the amino ac...
