Computational design of anti-cancer peptides tailored to target specific tumor markers

Abstract Anti-cancer peptides (ACPs) are short peptides known for their ability to inhibit tumor cell proliferation, migration, and the formation of tumor blood vessels. In this study, we designed ACPs to target receptors often overexpressed in cancer using a systematic in silico approach. Three tar...
