The identification of single strand DNA aptamers which specifically bind to platelets using cell-SELEX technique [PDF]
Aptamers are oligonucleotides that can be easily synthesized and bind to their targets with high affinity and specificity. Several aptamers specific to soluble factors of coagulation cascade have been produced, however, aptamers specific to platelet cell

Aptamers and aptamer targeted delivery [PDF]
When aptamers first emerged almost two decades ago, most were RNA species that bound and tagged or inhibited simple target ligands. Very soon after, the 'selectionologists' developing aptamer technology quickly realized more potential for the aptamer.

Aptamers are short nucleic acid sequences capable of specific, high-affinity molecular binding. They are isolated via SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment), an evolutionary process that involves iterative rounds of selection and amplification before sequencing and aptamer characterization.

The aptamer database is designed to contain comprehensive sequence information on aptamers and unnatural ribozymes that have been generated by in vitro selection methods. Such data are not normally collected in 'natural' sequence databases, such as GenBank.

Aptamers: Potential Diagnostic and Therapeutic Agents for Blood Diseases
Aptamers are RNA/DNA oligonucleotide molecules that specifically bind to a targeted complementary molecule. As potential recognition elements with promising diagnostic and therapeutic applications, aptamers, such as monoclonal antibodies, could provide ...

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 ...

A grafting strategy for the design of improved G-quadruplex aptamers and high-activity DNAzymes. [PDF]
Nucleic acid aptamers are generally obtained by in vitro selection. Some have G-rich consensus sequences with ability to fold into the four-stranded structures known as G-quadruplexes.
