In vivo imaging of MMP‐13 activity using a specific polymer‐FRET peptide conjugate detects early osteoarthritis and inhibitor efficacy
Imaging early molecular changes in osteoarthritic (OA) joints is instrumental for the development of disease‐modifying drugs. To this end, a fluorescent resonance energy transfer‐based peptide probe that is cleavable by matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP‐13) has been developed. This protease degrades...
