Liposomes targeting the cancer cell-exposed receptor, claudin-4, for pancreatic cancer chemotherapy

Abstract Background Claudin-4 (CLDN4), a tight junction protein, is overexpressed in several types of cancer, and is considered a biomarker for cancer-targeted treatment. CLDN4 is not exposed in normal cells, but becomes accessible in cancer cells, in which tight junctions are weakened. Notably, sur...
