Specific 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 کاملPreparation of sensitive and specific oligonucleotide probes tailed using terminal transferase and dITP.
An oligonucleotide probe tailed with deoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate or deoxythymine-5'-triphosphate is detectable with high sensitivity, but has a major drawback--the tail co-hybridizes specifically to complementary sequences. This can be a problem when screening cDNA clones that contain poly(dA) sequences. While it is possible to mask the cDNA tail with unlabeled poly(dA) or poly(A) oligonucle...
متن کاملSensitive and specific detection of microRNAs by northern blot analysis using LNA-modified oligonucleotide probes.
We describe here a new method for highly efficient detection of microRNAs by northern blot analysis using LNA (locked nucleic acid)-modified oligonucleotides. In order to exploit the improved hybridization properties of LNA with their target RNA molecules, we designed several LNA-modified oligonucleotide probes for detection of different microRNAs in animals and plants. By modifying DNA oligonu...
متن کاملSequence specific sensitivity of oligonucleotide probes
Gene expression analysis by means of high-density-oligonucleotide-array chips is based on the sequence specific binding of mRNA to oligonucleotide probes and its measurement using fluorescence labels. The sensitivity of a probe to detect a certain amount of target mRNA considerably varies among the about 400.000 probes, which are covalently attached to a typical Affymetrix chip. We present a mo...
متن کاملSimple and sensitive aptamer-based colorimetric sensing of protein using unmodified gold nanoparticle probes.
We describe herein simple and sensitive aptamer-based colorimetric sensing of protein (alpha-thrombin in this work) using unmodified gold nanoparticle probes.
