In Vitro Selection of Cancer Cell-Specific Molecular Recognition Elements from Amino Acid Libraries
نویسندگان
چکیده
Differential cell systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) is an in vitro selection method for obtaining molecular recognition elements (MREs) that specifically bind to individual cell types with high affinity. MREs are selected from initial large libraries of different nucleic or amino acids. This review outlines the construction of peptide and antibody fragment libraries as well as their different host types. Common methods of selection are also reviewed. Additionally, examples of cancer cell MREs are discussed, as well as their potential applications.

In-vitro assessment of the antiproliferative and apoptotic potential of the ethyl acetate extract of Peltophorum africanum on different cancer cell lines
We evaluated the in vitro antiproliferative and apoptotic potential of the ethyl acetate extract (EAE) of Peltophorum africanum, a member of the family Fabaceae (Sond) in order to validate its pharmacological use. Antiproliferation of human breast (MCF-7), colon (HT-29) and cervical (HeLa) cancer cell lines by EAE was investigated using the Cell Titer-Blue viability assay and the mechanism of a...

متن کاملNucleic acid aptamers-from selection in vitro to applications in vivo.
Aptamers are nucleic acid ligands which are isolated from combinatorial oligonucleotide libraries by in vitro selection. They exhibit highly complex and sophisticated molecular recognition properties and are capable of binding tightly and specifically to targets ranging from small molecules to complex multimeric structures. Besides their promising application as molecular sensors, many aptamers...
متن کاملMolecular biomimetics: utilizing nature's molecular ways in practical engineering.
In nature, proteins are the machinery that accomplish many functions through their specific recognition and interactions in biological systems from single-celled to multicellular organisms. Biomolecule-material interaction is accomplished via molecular specificity, leading to the formation of controlled structures and functions at all scales of dimensional hierarchy. Through evolution, molecula...
