Hai Xu, Cui Xia Chen, Jing Hua, Peng Zhou, Ping Zeng, Chang Hai Cao, Jian Ren Lu
Biomaterials, 34, 2731-2737 (2013)
Following our recent report of attractive antibacterial properties of a designed amphiphilic peptide, A9K, we have investigated its antitumor activities by examining the modes of its action against different mammalian cell types. The peptide strongly inhibited […]
