“Immunotoxins are chimeric proteins with a cytotoxic protein linked to a cell-targeting moiety such as a cytokine or monoclonal antibody. Immunotoxins offer means for selective targeting and elimination of cancer cells over-expressing specific cell surface receptors. After binding to target cells, these proteins are internalized by receptor -mediated endocytosis and cell death is induced by the toxin moiety.”
