Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Our aim was to devise targeted drug delivery systems using genetically modified cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) capsids by fusion expression with tumorhoming peptide F3 for efficient delivery of therapeutic substances into tumor cells. The RNA-binding domain at the N terminus (amino acid residues 1–25) of CCMV capsid protein (CP) was selectively deleted, and F3 was inserted for the expression in Pichia pastoris. After chromatographic purification, F3-CCMV capsids were obtained via selfassembly of the F3-CP fusion protein and then analyzed by transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering analysis, which revealed spherical nanoparticles (NPs) ca. 18 nm in diameter with regular monodispersity. Near-infrared fluorescent dye IR780 iodide, which has been applied for cancer imaging, photodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy, was encapsulated in F3-CCMV NPs. The resultant F3-CCMV-IR780 NPs showed excellent molecular targeting to nucleolin receptor overexpressed on the surface of MCF-7 tumor cells. Furthermore, the in vitro cellular uptake and cell viability assay proved a photothermal effect by a single dose of near-infrared laser irradiation. The present system may offer a programmable nanoscaffoldbased drug delivery system vehicle for fabrication of promising therapeutic substances for cancer therapy.
