Abstract
A wide variety of conjugates containing RIPs, of either chemical or recombinant type, have been made and tested against dangerous cells in vitro and in animal models. Many of these pre-clinical studies will be reviewed here dividing them on the basis of the target cell and the surface molecule specifically recognized.
