Official abstract text for this publication.
In some embodiments, aptamers that specifically bind pancreatic cancer cells are provided. Such aptamers may include an RNA molecule that specifically binds a pancreatic cancer cell surface protein. In certain embodiments, the RNA molecule that is used as an aptamer may include a nucleotide sequence of GAAUGCCC (SEQ ID NO: 8). In other embodiments, the RNA molecule may include a nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, or SEQ ID NO:6. In certain embodiments, the aptamer may be conjugated to one or more therapeutic agents (e.g., an shRNA molecule, an siRNA molecule, an mRNA molecule, or an miRNA molecule), one or more diagnostic agents, or a combination thereof. The aptamers and their conjugates may be used to deliver therapeutic agents to a pancreatic cancer cell, and/or in methods for treating or diagnosing pancreatic cancer.
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A pancreatic cancer cell aptamer comprising an RNA molecule that specifically binds a pancreatic cancer cell surface protein, wherein the RNA molecule comprises the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, or SEQ ID NO:6. 2. The pancreatic cancer cell aptamer of claim 1 , wherein the aptamer is conjugated to one or more therapeutic agents. 3. The pancreatic cancer cell apt…
