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.

Anti-VEGF DNA-based aptamers in cancer therapeutics and diagnostics

Claudia Riccardi et al.

Summary: The VEGF family and its receptors are crucial in pathological angiogenesis and cancer progression, leading to the development of potential treatments for malignant tumors. Various VEGF inhibitors, including small molecules, antibodies, and nucleic acid-based aptamers, have been evaluated for clinical use, showing promising therapeutic potential in anticancer strategies. Efforts to optimize these aptamers by increasing target affinity and exploring structural analogues of lead compounds have been made, highlighting their significance in highly selective biosensor construction and therapeutic applications.

Thermodynamic Stability of G-Quadruplexes: Impact of Sequence and Environment

Jagannath Jana et al.

Summary: G-quadruplexes have gained increasing attention for their presence in vivo and potential biological functions, as well as their utility in technological applications. While research has revealed their structural diversity, understanding of G-quadruplex stabilities in relation to sequence and environmental factors is still developing, posing challenges in predicting the most stable folds for a given sequence and environment.

Aptamers in biomedicine: Selection strategies and recent advances

Geanina Stefan et al.

Summary: Aptamers have emerged as bio-mimetic molecular recognition elements in biomedicine, with various applications in diagnostics, drug delivery, therapeutics, and pharmaceutical analysis. Despite their advantages, there are challenges to be addressed, such as poor specificity and sensitivity, questionable clinical use, low drug loading, in vivo stability, and toxicity. Further technological advances and research are needed to fully realize the potential of aptamers in the biomedical field.

Nanoparticle-Guided Brain Drug Delivery: Expanding the Therapeutic Approach to Neurodegenerative Diseases

Claudia Riccardi et al.

Summary: Neurodegenerative diseases are a group of aging-related disorders characterized by progressive impairment of motor and/or cognitive functions. Diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's are classified as protein misfolding diseases and currently lack effective treatment options. Nanotechnology offers promise in delivering therapeutic solutions for these diseases by crossing the blood-brain barrier to release active molecules in the brain.
