Abstract
Compositions for use in characterization, diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy of cancer cells are provided. The compositions comprise peptides and variants thereof which were isolated based on their ability to selectively bind glioma cells.
Claims13
A synthetic peptide consisting of the amino acid sequence ELRGDSLP (SEQ ID NO:12), wherein said synthetic peptide exhibits preferential binding to RG2 glioma cells when compared to its binding to astrocytes.
A synthetic peptide consisting of the amino acid sequence DSTKSGNM (SEQ ID NO:28), wherein said synthetic peptide exhibits preferential binding to RG2 glioma cells when compared to its binding to astrocytes.
A synthetic peptide consisting of the amino acid sequence DYDMTKNT (SEQ ID NO:39), wherein said synthetic peptide exhibits preferential binding to RG2 glioma cells when compared to its binding to astrocytes.
A synthetic peptide containing the motif V(D/G)LP(E/T)H (SEQ ID NO:8), wherein said synthetic peptide is eight amino acids in lenght and exhibits binding to RG2 glioma cells.
A synthetic peptide containing the amino acid sequence DLTK (SEQ ID NO:52), wherein said synthetic peptide is eight amino acids in lenght and exhibits preferential binding to glioma cells when compared to its binding to astrocytes.
A synthetic peptide containing the amino acid sequence DMTK (SEQ ID NO:52), wherein said synthetic peptide is eight amino acids in lenght and exhibits preferential binding to glioma cells when compared to its binding to astrocytes.
