Oncolytic peptides DTT-205 and DTT-304 induce complete regression and protective immune response in experimental murine colorectal cancer
Fleten, Karianne Giller; Eksteen, Johannes J.; Mauseth, Brynjar; Camilio, Ketil André; Vasskog, Terje; Sveinbjørnsson, Baldur; Rekdal, Øystein; Mælandsmo, Gunhild Mari; Flatmark, Kjersti (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-24)Oncolytic peptides represent a novel, promising cancer treatment strategy with activity in a broad spectrum of cancer entities, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Cancer cells are killed by immunogenic cell death, causing long-lasting anticancer immune responses, a feature of particular interest in non-immunogenic CRC. Oncolytic peptides DTT-205 and DTT-304 were administered by intratumoral injection ... -
Selective intracellular delivery of thiolated cargo to tumor and neovasculature cells using histidine-rich peptides as vectors
Eksteen, Jacobus Johannes; Ausbacher, Dominik; Vasskog, Terje; Rekdal, Øystein; Svendsen, John Sigurd Mjøen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-06)Short histidine-rich peptides could serve as novel activatable vectors for delivering cytotoxic payloads to tumor and neovasculature cells. This explorative study reports preliminary results showing that zinc ions, which are found in elevated levels at neovasculature sites, can trigger the intracellular delivery of a short antimicrobial peptide when conjugated to a histidine-rich peptide through a ...
