Title: Molecular Trojan horses for blood-brain barrier drug delivery. Author: Pardridge WM. Journal: Discov Med; 2006 Aug; 6(34):139-43. PubMed ID: 17234133. Abstract: Molecular Trojan horses are genetically engineered proteins that cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) via endogenous receptor-mediated transport processes. Molecular Trojan horses provide a brain drug targeting technology that allows for the non-invasive delivery of large molecule therapeutics to the human brain. The development of BBB drug targeting technology is an arcane area of discovery medicine that suffers from chronic under-development.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
