Description
Summary:Both targeting and penetrating ability are the key characteristics for tissue probing and precise delivery. To construct an efficient nano probing and delivery system toward human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive cancer, we established a nano liposomal system functionalized with a newly screened HER2 targeting peptide (HP2, YDLKEPEH) and the cell-penetrating peptide TAT simultaneously. Compared with the monofunctionalized liposomal probes, the dual-functional ones demonstrated a synergetic effect in cell uptake, drug delivery, and in vivo imaging. The improved efficacy of the synergetic system provides a prospective strategy for cancer diagnosis and therapy.
