Abstract
Intracellular delivery of biological cargos, which would yield new research tools and novel therapeutics, remains an active area of research. A convenient and potentially general approach involves the conjugation of a cell-penetrating peptide to a cargo of interest. However, linear CPPs lack sufficient cytosolic entry efficiency and metabolic stability, while previous backbone cyclized CPPs have several drawbacks including the necessity for chemical synthesis and posttranslational conjugation to peptide/protein cargos and epimerization during cyclization. We report here a new class of bismuth cyclized CPPs with excellent cytosolic entry efficiencies, proteolytic stability, and potential compatibility with genetic encoding and recombinant production.
期刊介绍：
Molecular Pharmaceutics publishes the results of original research that contributes significantly to the molecular mechanistic understanding of drug delivery and drug delivery systems. The journal encourages contributions describing research at the interface of drug discovery and drug development.
Scientific areas within the scope of the journal include physical and pharmaceutical chemistry, biochemistry and biophysics, molecular and cellular biology, and polymer and materials science as they relate to drug and drug delivery system efficacy. Mechanistic Drug Delivery and Drug Targeting research on modulating activity and efficacy of a drug or drug product is within the scope of Molecular Pharmaceutics. Theoretical and experimental peer-reviewed research articles, communications, reviews, and perspectives are welcomed.
