ABSTRACT:
Improved transporter compositions effective for detecting or killing cells in acidic areas of tumors are described. Each composition includes a transporter peptide which at pH 7.2 and above is poly-anionic and so repels from cells in normal tissues, but at lower pH in hypoxic areas of tumors the transporter peptide converts to a non-ionic lipophilic form which transports across membranes of cells. Each composition also includes a cargo component which can be pulled across cell membranes by the transporter peptide and which is effective for detecting or killing cells into which the transporter composition has entered.
