An RNA Alternative to Human Transferrin: A New Tool for Targeting Human Cells

An RNA Alternative to Human Transferrin: A New Tool for Targeting Human Cells

The transferrin receptor, CD71, is an attractive target for drug development because of its high expression on a number of cancer cell lines and the blood brain barrier. To generate serum-stabilized aptamers that recognize the human transferrin receptor, we have modified the traditional aptamer sele...
