A peptide for targeted, systemic delivery of imaging and therapeutic compounds into acute brain injuries
Accurate treatment of traumatic brain injuries, a leading cause of neurological disability and death in young people, is hampered by poor accumulation of drugs in the brain. Here, the authors describe a tetrapeptide that can efficiently target brain injuries and deliver therapeutic or diagnostic pay...
