Receptor-mediated gene delivery using the Fab fragments of anti-epidermal growth factor receptor antibodies: improved immunogene approach.

abstract：:Doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1) is a cancer stem cell marker for the colorectal cancer (CRC). It plays critical roles in the oncogenesis, progression, and metastasis of CRC. DCLK1 can be an intriguing therapeutic target for CRC treatment. However, the molecular mechanism of how DCLK1 functions is unclear currently....
