The transferrin receptor and the targeted delivery of therapeutic agents against cancer

TL;DR: The present article discusses the strategies used to target the TfR for the delivery of therapeutic agents into cancer cells and provides a summary of the vast types of anti-cancer drugs that have been delivered intocancer cells employing a variety of receptor binding molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

The transferrin receptor part I: Biology and targeting with cytotoxic antibodies for the treatment of cancer.

TL;DR: Improvements in the basic physiology of the transferrin receptor including structure, function, and expression are summarized and the efficacy of targeting the TfR using cytotoxic antibodies that inhibit cell growth and/or induce apoptosis in targeted malignant cells is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The transferrin receptor part II: targeted delivery of therapeutic agents into cancer cells.

TL;DR: The transferrin receptor, a cell membrane-associated glycoprotein involved in iron homeostasis and cell growth, has been explored as a target to deliver therapeutic agents into tumor cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibody-cytokine fusion proteins for the therapy of cancer.

TL;DR: In animals bearing tumors, antibody-cytokine fusion proteins are able to target the tumor and to elicit a significant anti-tumor response that in some cases results in a complete elimination of the tumor.
Journal ArticleDOI

AllergoOncology: the role of IgE-mediated allergy in cancer

TL;DR: It could be demonstrated that IgE antibodies specific to overexpressed tumor antigens have been superior to any other immunoglobulin class with respect to antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and phagocytosis (ADCP) reactions.
