Peptide-based Drug Delivery

Peptide-based drug delivery involves using small chains of amino acids (peptides) to transport medications directly to specific cells or tissues in the body. Peptides can be designed to recognize and bind to target cells, helping drugs reach the right location more effectively. This targeted approach improves treatment efficiency and reduces side effects. Because peptides are naturally occurring and customizable, they are a promising tool for developing safer, more precise therapies for various diseases, including cancer and infections.
