Development of aptamer therapeutics.

Current Opinion in Pharmacology

Abstract

The field of aptamer research is growing rapidly, with ∼230 papers using the word 'aptamer' published from January to June 2010. These reports cover many different applications ranging from tools to study protein function to potential diagnostic and therapeutic agents. In this review we will focus on the processes involved in isolating and developing aptamers as therapeutic compounds, using specific examples including the first aptamer therapeutic approved for use in humans (Pegaptanib or Macugen). We will also mention a few of the growing number of aptamer therapeutics in various stages of preclinical and clinical trial.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease with approximately 20,000 cases per year in the United States. AML also accounts for 15-20% of all childhood acute leukemias, while it is responsible for more than half of the leukemic deaths in these patients. Here is the latest research on this disease.
