Comparative Evaluation of Engineered Polypeptide Scaffolds in HER2-Targeting Magnetic Nanocarrier Delivery

Targeted drug delivery is one of the most intriguing and challenging issues in modern biomedicine. For active targeting, full-size IgG molecules (150 kDa) are usually used. Recent studies have revealed that small artificial polypeptide scaffolds such as DARPins (14 kDa) and affibodies (8 kDa) are much more promising tools for drug delivery due to their small size, artificial nature, low immunogenicity, and many other properties. However, there...
