"In conclusion, we report a protease-resistant peptide with the capacity to transport cargos of distinct sizes and types across the BBB, one of the most restrictive barriers in the human body.
This potential BBB shuttle brings with it the possibility to fulfil an unmet clinical need, namely the treatment of CNS disorders."
