Antiproliferative Effects of the Aptamer d(GGGT)4 and Its Analogues with an Abasic-Site Mimic Loop on Different Cancer Cells

Antonella Virgilio et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the antiproliferative potential of T30923 and the contribution of its loop residues in six different human cancer cell lines. The results show that T30923 and its variants exhibit interesting cytotoxic activity against cancer cells, especially in MDA-MB-231 cells.

G-quadruplex-based aptamers targeting human thrombin: Discovery, chemical modifications and antithrombotic effects

Claudia Riccardi et al.

Summary: Research on DNA aptamers targeting thrombin began in 1992, with TBA being the most well-characterized aptamer. However, unmodified aptamers exhibit limited pharmacokinetic properties, leading to the exploration of chemical modifications to improve their biological performance.

Exploring New Potential Anticancer Activities of the G-Quadruplexes Formed by [(GTG2T(G3T)3] and Its Derivatives with an Abasic Site Replacing Single Thymidine

Antonella Virgilio et al.

Summary: This study investigates the antiproliferative potential of T30175 analogues by replacing thymidines with abasic sites, revealing that the original aptamer exhibits the strongest anticancer activity. The research suggests that the characteristic folding and the presence of all thymidines are crucial for the antiproliferative properties of G-quadruplexes.

Recognition Interface of the Thrombin Binding Aptamer Requires Antiparallel Topology of the Quadruplex Core

Julia Svetlova et al.

Summary: Recent advances in G-quadruplex studies have shown their important role in key biological processes, with highly specific interactions between GQ structures and cellular proteins. It is now accepted that GQ loop elements play a major role in protein recognition, but the extent to which the GQ core contributes to maintaining the recognition interface remains unclear. Core guanines not only support a particular type of GQ architecture, but also set structural parameters that make GQ protein recognition sensitive to quadruplex topology.
