摘要: The purpose of our work was to select phages displaying peptides capable binding vascular markers present in human atheroma, and validate their capacity target the vitro low-density lipoprotein receptor knockout (LDLr−/−) mouse model atherosclerosis. By peptide fingerprinting on atherosclerotic tissues, we selected isolated four different sequences, which bind lesions share significant similarity known proteins with prominent roles CTHRSSVVC-phage displayed strongest reactivity carotid (p 95% yield as determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), plaque specimens. results supported hypothesis that CTHRSSVVC has a remarkable sequence for development theranostics approaches treatment atherosclerosis other diseases.
