Abstract

One aspect of the disclosure relates to a cargo delivery system comprising an autophagy targeting ligand and a target-binding ligand. In one aspect of the disclosure, by comprising an autophagy targeting ligand, cargo, which is a target-binding ligand that specifically binds to a target, is delivered to the p62 protein and autophagy is activated, so that depending on the type of target-binding ligand used, a target to be degraded can be selectively and directly removed. Accordingly, the cargo delivery system according to an aspect of the disclosure may be used in pharmaceutical compositions or food compositions for preventing, alimerating, and treating various diseases.

Claims (181)

1. A cargo delivery system, comprising

an autophagy targeting ligand; and

a target-binding ligand, which is cargo, carried by the autophagy targeting ligand,

wherein the autophagy targeting ligand is connected to the target-binding ligand by a linker,

wherein the autophagy targeting ligand connected to the target-binding ligand by a linker is selected from the group consisting of compounds shown in the following table:
