Schematic representation of nanoparticles functionalization with RVG29 peptide (not drawn to scale). DSPE-PEG-MAL is a 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphoethanolamine (DSPE) associated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and terminal maleimide groups (MAL). The maleimide groups can react with thiol groups, thereby forming thioether bonds. Adopted by Pinheiro et al. (2020) [96].
