Cathepsin B degradable star-shaped peptidic macromolecules for delivery of 2-methoxyestradiol.

abstract：:The development of cancer and fibrotic diseases has been shown to be highly dependent on disregulation of cap-dependent translation. Binding protein eIF4E to N(7)-methylated guanosine capped mRNA has been found to be the rate-limiting step governing translation initiation, and therefore represents an attractive target...
