Bioactivity iRGD peptide is a 9-amino acid cyclic peptide, triggers tissue penetration of drugs by first binding to av integrins, then proteolytically cleaved in the tumor to produce CRGDK/R to interact with neuropilin-1, and has tumor-targeting and tumor-penetrating properties.
Invitro iRGD peptide-mediated tumor penetration occurs in three steps: binding to αv-integrins on tumor vasculature or tumor cells, exposure by proteolysis of a C-terminal motif that binds to neuropilin-1 (NRP-1) and cell internalization. iRGD peptide inserted in the ICOVIR15K fiber C terminus enhances binding and internalization only in MCF7 cells, which express NRP-1 and integrins. iRGD insertion does not impair virus infection and replication[1]. iRGD peptide alone has no obvious effect on gastric cancer cells, and when combined with 5-FU, iRGD peptide (0.3 μmol/mL) enhances the chemotherapy efficacy of 5-FU on gastric cancer cells through NRP1[2].
