Enzymatic activatable self-assembled peptide nanowire for targeted therapy and fluorescence imaging of tumors

Abstract

We developed novel activatable probe using self-assembled peptide nanowires with low affinity and toxicity to tumor cells in the absence of matrix metalloproteinase that showed activated high affinity and toxicity and provided a highly selective and efficient platform for targeted therapy and tumor imaging.
