Abstrakt: One of the bottlenecks to bringing new therapies to the clinic has been a lack of vectors for delivering novel therapeutics in a targeted manner. Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) have received a lot of attention and have been the subject of numerous developments since their identification nearly three decades ago. Known for their transduction abilities, they have generally been considered inert vectors. In this review, we present a schema for their classification, highlight what is known about their mechanism of transduction, and outline the existing literature as well as our own experience, vis a vis the intrinsic anti-inflammatory properties that certain CPPs exhibit. Given the inflammatory responses associated with viral vectors, CPPs represent a viable alternative to such vectors; furthermore, the anti-inflammatory properties of CPPs, mostly through inhibition of the NF-κB pathway, are encouraging. Much more work in relevant animal models, toxicity studies in large animal models, and ultimately human trials are needed before their potential is fully realized.
