PEPTIDE-MEDIATED PROTEIN TRANSDUCTION INTO CELLS THE HEMATOPOIETIC LINEAGE

摘要

A pharmaceutical composition comprises a therapeutic peptide or protein, a transport moiety capable of transporting said first peptide or protein into a hematopoietic cell differentiated from a common myeloid progenitor, and a linker between said first protein and said transport moiety, said linker susceptible to cleavage by an intracellular enzyme in the cell. A cell or collection of cells, e.g., platelets, containing such a composition is useful in methods for treating infection, inflammation, vascular injuries or any disorders involving or mediated by cells of the hematopoietic lineage. Methods of making such compostions are also disclosed.
