“…Besides the discovery of various tumor penetrating peptides, targeting membrane bound integrin receptors (IRs) of several subtypes expressed on tumor-associated cells, especially on vascular endothelial cells is a well-known strategy for treating cancer (Ruoslahti, 2017;Weis & Cheresh, 2011). In contrast to the use of RGD peptide as a well-established ligand to nonselectively target IR of multiple subtypes on vascular endothelial cells Arabinda Chaudhuri et al critically emphasized the importance of an extra lysine (K) to RGD-peptide (as RGDK or RGDGWK) hooked to the liposomal nanodelivery systems, which could indeed target α5β1, a subtype that is the highly expressed subtype of IR in tumorassociated cells (Barui et al, 2014(Barui et al, , 2016Majumder et al, 2014;Mondal, Barui, Saha, et al, 2013;Pramanik et al, 2008;Samanta et al, 2010;Vangala et al, 2020). This concept was also extended for single walled nanotube (SWNT)-based delivery systems for targeting tumor cells (Das et al, 2017).…”
