Zusammenfassung:Provided herein are biomolecule conjugates, and methods of use thereof, wherein the conjugate comprises a cytokine, typically an immunopotentiating cytokine, and a peptide comprising or consisting of the sequence CSGRRSSKC (SEQ ID NO:1). Biomolecule conjugates of the invention find application, inter alia, in the treatment of turnouts, atherosclerosis and fibrosis, and the degradation of ECM associated therewith. Also provided herein are uses of a peptide comprising or consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, optionally linked to a delectable agent and/or a carrier, in the detection and/or localisation of tumour, atherosclerotic and fibrotic tissue.
