CTHRSSVVC Peptide as a Possible Early Molecular Imaging Target for Atherosclerosis

CTHRSSVVC Peptide as a Possible Early Molecular Imaging Target for Atherosclerosis

The purpose of our work was to select phages displaying peptides capable of binding to vascular markers present in human atheroma, and validate their capacity to target the vascular markers in vitro and in low-density lipoprotein receptor knockout (LDLr−/−) mouse model of atherosclerosis. By peptide...
