Alpha v integrins as receptors for tumor targeting by circulating ligands

Nature Biotechnology

Abstract

Phage displaying an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)-containing peptide with a high affinity for alpha v integrins homed to tumors when injected intravenously into tumor-bearing mice. A substantially higher amount of alpha v-directed RGD phage than control phage was recovered from malignant melanomas and breast carcinoma. Antibodies detected the alpha v-directed RGD phage in tumor blood vessels, but not in several normal tissues. These results show that the alpha v integrins present in tumor blood vessels can bind circulating ligands and that RGD peptides selective for these integrins may be suitable tools in tumor targeting for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Bacteriophage: Phage Therapy

Phage therapy uses bacterial viruses (bacteriophages) to treat bacterial infections and is widely being recognized as an alternative to antibiotics. Here is the latest research.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
