Targeted delivery of therapeutics is an attractive strategy for vascular diseases. Recently, variable domains of heavy-chain-only antibodies (VHHs) have gained momentum as targeting ligands to achieve this. Targeting ligands need adequate conjugation to the preferred delivery platform. When choosing...
