Targeted drug delivery via the folate receptor

Folate receptor-targeted anti-cancer agent delivery

Targeted drug delivery via the transferrin receptor-mediated endocytosis pathway.

The membrane transferrin receptor-mediated endocytosis or internalization of the complex of transferrin bound iron and the transferrin receptor is the major route of cellular iron uptake. This efficient cellular uptake pathway has been exploited for the site-specific delivery not only of anticancer drugs and proteins, but also of therapeutic genes into proliferating malignant cells that overexp...
