Using the knowledge that rabies virus can spread into the brain neurons, scientists mimic its delivery system. A short, 29 amino acid peptide chain is derived from the rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG). The RVG binds to the acetylcholine receptor on the neurons and the endothelium cells of the blood-brain barrier. Through this interaction, transvascular delivery is enabled.
