Recent Advances in SELEX Technology and Aptamer Applications in Biomedicine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
Aptamers are short DNA/RNA oligonucleotides capable of binding to target molecules with high affinity and specificity. The process of selecting an aptamer is called Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment (SELEX).

Microenvironment‐Guided Evolution of ssDNA‐SWCNT Probes for Selective Recognition of Aggressive Prostate Cancer Phenotypes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Random ssDNA–SWCNT(single strand DNA‐single walled carbon nanotube) library is functionally screened and evolved using high‐throughput 3D prostate tumor spheroids via iterative positive and negative selection, enabling the identification of NIR‐II fluorescent ssDNA‐SWCNT nanoprobe specific for prostate cancer.

Intelligent Thermo‐Self‐Limited Magnetothermia with Heat‐Triggered TERT Silencing for Precision Synergetic Cancer Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) mRNA induces DNA self‐assembly in cancer cells, boosting the nanoplatform's magnetothermal properties. This magnetothermia then activates the Hsp70 promoter, initiating siRNA synthesis to silence the TERT gene, enhancing cancer treatment.

Oligonucleotide Functionalised Microbeads: Indispensable Tools for High-Throughput Aptamer Selection

open access: yesMolecules, 2015
The functionalisation of microbeads with oligonucleotides has become an indispensable technique for high-throughput aptamer selection in SELEX protocols.

Label‐Free and Immobilization‐Free Protein‐Binding Assays by Ultraviolet Transient Absorption Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A femtosecond UV pump–probe microscope resolves binding‐induced changes in protein excited‐state dynamics and converts these intrinsic contrasts into an equilibrium affinity readout. By probing tryptophan responses directly in solution, the approach enables quantitative determination of dissociation constants without labeling or immobilization ...

Oligonucleotide Aptamers: New Tools for Targeted Cancer Therapy

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2014
Aptamers are a class of small nucleic acid ligands that are composed of RNA or single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides and have high specificity and affinity for their targets.

Aptamers and Cancer

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Cancer Biology, 2016
Oligonucleotides Aptamers are single strands of DNA and RNA with the length of 20-100 nucleotides or peptides and unique three dimensional structure that is affected by nucleotide sequence. The structure exclusively influences aptamers’ bindings with its target molecule.

Aptamer-Functionalized Exosomes: Elucidating the Cellular Uptake Mechanism and the Potential for Cancer-Targeted Chemotherapy.

open access: yesAnalytical Chemistry, 2019
Exosomes (Exos) are nanoscale natural vehicles for transporting biomolecules to facilitate cell-to-cell communication, indicating a high potential of them for delivering therapeutics/diagnostics. To improve their delivery capacity, a simple, noninvasive,

Glutamine Deprivation Triggers Tribbles Homolog 3 Dependent G‐Quadruplex Resolution to Maintain DNA Repair and Tumor Survival

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Glutamine deprivation triggers transient DNA damage yet activates adaptive repair in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. We identify TRIB3 as a stress‐induced nuclear scaffold that associates with DDX5 and G‐quadruplex DNA atBRCA1 andRAD51AP1 promoters. TRIB3 loss increases G4 accumulation, suppresses HR gene transcription, elevates γ‐H2A.X, and sensitizes
