A nucleolin-targeted multimodal nanoparticle imaging probe for tracking cancer cells using an aptamer.
UNLABELLED The recent advances in molecular imaging techniques, using cancer-targeting nanoparticle probes, provide noninvasive tracking information on cancer cells in living subjects. Here, we report a multimodal cancer-targeted imaging system capable of concurrent fluorescence imaging, radionuclide imaging, and MRI in vivo. METHODS A cobalt-ferrite nanoparticle surrounded by fluorescent rho...
متن کاملTargeted nanoparticle-aptamer bioconjugates for cancer chemotherapy in vivo.
Targeted uptake of therapeutic nanoparticles in a cell-, tissue-, or disease-specific manner represents a potentially powerful technology. Using prostate cancer as a model, we report docetaxel (Dtxl)-encapsulated nanoparticles formulated with biocompatible and biodegradable poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLGA-b-PEG) copolymer and surface functionalized with the A...
متن کاملIn Silico Activity of AS1411 Aptamer Against Nucleolin of Cancer Cells
Background: It has been expected that AS1411 aptamer could work against the cancer cells. Although the general information is available, there is still lack of details for the purpose. Therefore, activity of AS1411 aptamer against the nucleolin (NCL) target of cancer cells has been investigated in current work at the molecular scale. In addition, the same features have been also investigated fo...
متن کاملAS1411 Aptamer Conjugated Gold Nanoclusters as a Targeted Radiosensitizer for Megavoltage Radiation Therapy of 4T1 Breast Cancer Cells
Introduction: In the present study, AS1411 aptamer conjugated gold nanoclusters (GNCs) have been introduced as a targeted radiosensitizer for enhancing megavoltage radiation therapy efficacy. RT has identified as an effective therapeutic modality for many different types of solid tumors. However, equal radiation beams absorption by tumor and surrounding healthy tissues is still...
متن کاملChimeric nucleolin aptamer with survivin DNAzyme for cancer cell targeted delivery.
A chimeric aptamer-DNAzyme conjugate was generated for the first time using a nucleolin aptamer (NCL-APT) and survivin Dz (Sur_Dz) and exhibited the targeted killing of cancer cells. This proof of concept of using an aptamer for the delivery of DNAzyme can be applied to other cancer types to target survivin in cancer cells in a specific manner.
