Abstract

Owing to the ability of CPPs to transport across cellular membrane, they can employ as an appropriate carrier for various cargos include nucleic acid, proteins, SiRNA, therapeutic agents, nanoparticles and so on. In this review, we describe the classifications of CPPs, their uptake mechanisms as well as biomedical applications of the CPPs.
