Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Biological Activity]
Gly-Pro-Leu-Gly-Ile-Ala-Gly-Gln(GPLGIAGQ), an MMP2 cleavable polypeptide, has been used as a stimulus-sensitive linker in both liposomes and micellar nanocarriers for MMP2-triggered tumor targeting studies. GPLGIAGQ can be used to synthesize unique MMP2-targeted photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy (PDT). | [in vitro]
GPLGIAGQ is used to trigger PEG deshielding of liposomal carriers, resulting in enhanced cellular internalization. |
