Abstract:Aptamers, a kind of short single-stranded oligonucleic acids (DNA or RNA) or peptide molecules that can fold into secondary or tertiary structures, are well recognized as a potential tool for binding target molecules due to its high specificity and affinity. As tumor targeted ligands, aptamers have certain superiorities compared with antibodies, such as low immunogenicity, high binding specificity and so on. By the means of systematic evolution of ligands with exponential enrichment (SELEX) approach, selected … Show more
