Abstract
The present invention relates to amylin peptide-carrying nanoparticles, particularly for use in medicine, and includes methods for treatment of disorders, e.g., of blood glucose regulation. Nanoparticle composition comprise a nanoparticle comprising a core comprising a metal and/or a semiconductor; and a corona comprising a plurality of ligands covalently linked to the core, wherein said ligands comprise glutathione; and at least one amylin peptide that is non-covalently bound to the corona.
