Biostable ssDNA Aptamers Specific for Hodgkin Lymphoma
As a "chemical antibody", oligonucleotide aptamers can specifically bind to their target molecules. However, clinical potential of aptamers in disease diagnosis is not yet fully explored. Using a tumor cell-based selection protocol, we developed single-stranded DNA aptamers for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) tumor cells. The aptamers specifically bound to HL cells with a high affinity, reaching maximal ...
متن کاملssDNA aptamers that selectively bind oxytetracycline.
Single stranded DNA aptamers that bind with high affinity and specificity to the oxytetracycline (OTC) were identified by selection from an oligonucleotide library of 10(15) molecules. The binding affinities of four aptamers were in nanomolar range. The aptamers were highly selective in that, lack of -OH group at 5-position in tetracycline and -H group in place of -OH at 6-position in doxycycli...
متن کاملIn vitro selection and identification of ssDNA aptamers recognizing the Ras protein.
The aim of this study was to develop high-affinity single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) aptamers that can selectively recognize the protein Ras and can be used as preventive and therapeutic agents for restenosis occurring after coronary surgery or angioplasty. For this purpose, we used the systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) technique, also known as in vitro selection. Usin...
متن کاملIdentification of Factors Associated with Biofilm Formation Ability in the Clinical Isolates of Helicobacter pylori
Background: A few reports confirm the ability of Helicobacter pylori to form biofilm. However, conclusive data do not exist concerning the factors that favor this ability.Objectives: Evaluation of the factors associated with the biofilm formation ability of H. pylori including bacterial, physical and chemical, and environmental factors was the research’s aim.Materials and Methods: H...
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Candida Species in Clinical Isolates
Candida exists as a normal flora on skin and mucosa. The prevalence of Candida-induced infections specially mucosal and vaginal infections have been raised in the world in last decade due to increase in predisposing factors. C.albicans is the major etiological agent of candidiasis, but infections due to other species have been increasing. The aim of this study was to determine Candida species b...
