Abstract
Proteolytic chimeras constructed from various bioactive modules can degrade either cytoplasmic or extracellular proteins, but their pharmacology faces challenges. Now, a protein degradation platform built with engineered platelets enables the targeted depletion of intracellular and extracellular proteins at hemorrhagic sites, addressing several limitations associated with proteolytic chimeras.
