Multi-modal imaging for uptake of peptide ligand specific for CD44 by hepatocellular carcinoma
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is rising steadily in incidence, and more effective methods are needed for early cancer detection and image-guided surgery. Methods: We used a structural model to optimize the peptide sequence. Specific binding was validated in vitro with knockdown, competi...
