Provided are compositions that include targeting peptides and methods for using the same to treat and/or prevent various diseases, disorders, and/or conditions. In some embodiments, the compositions and methods relate to liposomal compositions that include a liposome, the surface of which is conjugated to a peptide having an amino acid sequence as set forth in any of SEQ ID NOS: 3-38, optionally wherein the liposome encapsulates a therapeutic agent or a detectable agent. In some embodiments, the peptide has an amino acid sequence that is one of SEQ ID NOs: 14, 19, 20, 27, and 28. Also provided are methods treating or preventing fibrosis, for decreasing the incidence of a disease, disorder, or condition associated with chronic pancreatitis (CP), for targeting active agents to targets, including but not limited to collagen III-expressing cells and extracellular matrix, and for decreasing incidence of side effects associated with apigenin treatment.
