Peptibodies: Bridging the gap between peptides and antibodies.

Peptides are a very critical class of pharmaceutical compounds that can control several signaling pathways and thereby affect many physiological and biochemical processes. Previous research suggests that both peptides and antibodies may serve as potent tools for research, diagnostics, vaccination, and therapeutics across diverse domains. The distinct attributes of peptides, like their profound tissue penetration, efficient cellular internalization, reduced immunogenicity, and adaptability to chemical modification, underscore their significance in biomedical applications.
