Delivering cargoes into cancer cells using DNA aptamers targeting internalized surface portals.
Many evolving treatments for cancer patients are based on the targeted delivery of therapeutic cargoes to and into cancer cells. The advent of monoclonal antibodies and the use of peptide hormones, growth factors and cytokines have historically provided a spectrum of ligands needed to selectively target tumor-associated antigens on cancer cells. However, issues linked to the size, cost and immu...
متن کاملDNA Aptamers as Molecular Probes for Colorectal Cancer Study
BACKGROUND Understanding the molecular features of specific tumors can increase our knowledge about the mechanism(s) underlying disease development and progression. This is particularly significant for colorectal cancer, which is a heterogeneous complex of diseases developed in a sequential manner through a multistep carcinogenic process. As such, it is likely that tumors with similar character...

متن کاملDevelopment of RNA aptamers as molecular probes for HER2+ breast cancer study using cell-SELEX
Objective(s): Development of molecules that specifically recognize cancer cells is one of the major areas in cancer research. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is specifically expressed on the surface of breast cancer cells. HER2 is associated with an aggressive phenotype and poor prognosis. In this study we aimed to isolate RNA aptamers that specifically bind to HER2 overexpressi...
