RNA Aptamer Binds Heparin-Binding Epidermal Growth Factor-Like Growth Factor with High Affinity and Specificity and Neutralizes Its Activity
Background: Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is a member of the EGF family and is involved in various diseases including cancers. Aptamers are synthetic oligonucleotides (RNA or DNA) that fold into unique three-dimensional structures and specifically bind to their...
