Aptamer: A Novel Therapeutic Oligonucleotide
The aptamer is an oligonucleotide which is a short version of biological nucleic acids (such as DNA and RNA) with defined sequence of nucleotides. Based on the complexity of molecule, the aptamers lies in-between protein molecules and small chemical molecules. Aptamers have high specificity and affinity towards target proteins. They are screened from random sequences of oligonucleotides based o...
متن کاملAptamer-based Targeted Delivery of miRNA let-7d to Gastric Cancer Cells as a Novel Anti-Tumor Therapeutic Agent
miRNAs as one of the potential therapeutic agents have been recently considered for cancer treatment. AS1411 (aptNCL) is a DNA aptamer specifically binding to nucleolin protein on the cancer cell surface with antiproliferative effect. The aim of the study was to develop a conjugate consisted of aptNCL (as targeted delivery of therapeutic agent) and miRNA let-7d (as a tumor suppressor) using two...

متن کاملSpecific and Sensitive Tumor Imaging Using Biostable Oligonucleotide Aptamer Probes
Although several imaging modalities are widely used for tumor imaging, none are tumor type-specific. Different types of cancer exhibit differential therapeutic responses, thus necessitating development of an imaging modality able to detect various tumor types with high specificity. To illustrate this point, CD30-specific oligonucleotide aptamer in vivo imaging probes were conjugated to the near...
متن کاملOligonucleotide Functionalised Microbeads: Indispensable Tools for High-Throughput Aptamer Selection.
The functionalisation of microbeads with oligonucleotides has become an indispensable technique for high-throughput aptamer selection in SELEX protocols. In addition to simplifying the separation of binding and non-binding aptamer candidates, microbeads have facilitated the integration of other technologies such as emulsion PCR (ePCR) and Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) to high-throu...
