Macrocyclic G-Quadruplex Ligands

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2010
G-quadruplex stabilizing compounds have recently received increased interest due to their potential application as anticancer therapeutics. A significant number of structurally diverse G-quadruplex ligands have been developed. Some of the most potent and selective ligands currently known are macrocyclic structures which have been modeled after the ...

A Sensitive Aptasensor Based on a Hemin/G-Quadruplex-Assisted Signal Amplification Strategy for Electrochemical Detection of Gastric Cancer Exosomes.

Small, 2019
Emerging evidence indicates that exosomes derived from gastric cancer cells enhance tumor migration and invasion through the modulation of the tumor microenvironment. However, it remains a major problem to detect cancer-specific exosomes due to technical

G-quadruplex, Friend or Foe: The Role of the G-quartet in Anticancer Strategies.

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2020
The clinical applicability of G-quadruplexes (G4s) as anticancer drugs is currently being evaluated. Several G4 ligands and aptamers are undergoing clinical trials following the notable examples of quarfloxin and AS1411, respectively.

Hunting G-quadruplexes

Biochimie, 2008
Whilst DNA spends much of its time in the double-stranded form, frequently in storage, wrapped around histones and packaged as chromatin, it can also form other complex structures, which may play a role in natural regulation and gene control. These alternative structures therefore also present an interesting novel series of targets for artificial ...

UV Melting of G‐Quadruplexes

Current Protocols in Nucleic Acid Chemistry, 2009
AbstractAbsorbance versus temperature curves can provide information on the thermal stability of DNA or RNA quadruplexes. Quadruplex denaturation or renaturation can be followed by recording absorbance at 295 nm rather than 260 nm, the wavelength used to monitor duplex denaturation. This unit describes the use of absorbance versus temperature curves to
