Strategies for developing long-lasting therapeutic nucleic acid aptamer targeting circulating protein: The present and the future
Aptamers are short, single-stranded DNA or RNA oligonucleotide sequences that can bind specific targets. The molecular weight of aptamers (<20 kDa) is lower than the renal filtration threshold (30∼50 kDa), resulting in very short half-lives in vivo, which limit their druggability. The develop...
