Therapeutic aptamers: developmental potential as anticancer drugs
Aptamers, composed of single-stranded DNA or RNA oligonucleotides that interact with target molecules through a specific three-dimensional structure, are selected from pools of combinatorial oligonucleotide libraries. With their high specificity and affinity for target proteins, ease of synthesis and modification, and low immunogenicity and toxicity, aptamers are considered to be attractive mol...
متن کاملDNA Intercalators and Using Them as Anticancer Drugs
Many anticancer drugs in clinical use interact with DNA through intercalation, which is process that starts with the transfer of the intercalating molecule from an aqueous environment to the hydrophobic space between two adjacent DNA base pairs. In general, intercalatig agents are two types: monofunctional and bifunctional. Monofunctional intercalators contain one intercalating unit and Bifunct...

متن کاملBeta-lactams and their potential use as novel anticancer chemotherapeutics drugs.
The discovery of natural and synthetic antibiotics is one of the most important medical breakthroughs in human history. Many diseases, such as bacterial meningitis, pneumonia, and septicemia, are now curable with the use of antibiotics. Antibiotics are efficacious, generally well tolerated in patients, and have a low toxicity level. It is for these reasons antibiotics remain an attractive targe...
متن کاملDiscovery of ‘click’ 1,2,3-triazolium salts as potential anticancer drugs
BACKGROUND In order to increase the effectiveness of cancer treatment, new compounds with potential anticancer activities are synthesized and screened. Here we present the screening of a new class of compounds, 1-(2-picolyl)-, 4-(2-picolyl)-, 1-(2-pyridyl)-, and 4-(2-pyridyl)-3-methyl-1,2,3-triazolium salts and 'parent' 1,2,3-triazole precursors. METHODS Cytotoxic activity of new compounds wa...
