Aptamers 101: aptamer discovery and in vitro applications in biosensors and separations
Aptamers are single-stranded nucleic acids that bind and recognize targets much like antibodies. Recently, aptamers have garnered increased interest due to their unique properties, including inexpensive production, simple chemical modification, and long ...

Recent Progress in Aptamer Discoveries and Modifications for Therapeutic Applications.
Aptamers are oligonucleotide sequences with a length of about 25-80 bases which have abilities to bind to specific target molecules that rival those of monoclonal antibodies. They are attracting great attention in diverse clinical translations on account

Aptamer Blocking Strategy Inhibits SARS‐CoV‐2 Virus Infection
The COVID‐19 pandemic caused by SARS‐CoV‐2 is threating global health. Inhibiting interaction of the receptor‐binding domain of SARS‐CoV‐2 S protein (SRBD) and human ACE2 receptor is a promising treatment strategy.

Advances in aptamer screening and aptasensors’ detection of heavy metal ions
Heavy metal pollution has become more and more serious with industrial development and resource exploitation. Because heavy metal ions are difficult to be biodegraded, they accumulate in the human body and cause serious threat to human health.

Aptamer and aptamer pharmaceuticals [PDF]
Recently, molecule-based targeted therapy has achieved remarkable success in clinical, and opened up a new era particulraly in the field of cancer therapy. Monoclonal antibodies and small molecule inhibitors are two pillars of this field. Additionally, a single-strand nucleic acid molecule called “chemical antibody” has also attracted increasing ...

Aptamer-assisted tumor localization of bacteria for enhanced biotherapy
Despite bacterial-mediated biotherapies have been widely explored for treating different types of cancer, their implementation has been restricted by low treatment efficacy, due largely to the absence of tumor-specific accumulation following ...
