Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biomaterials, and in particular to an alpha-thrombin cyclic NU nucleic acid aptamer, a preparation method, an antidote and applications. Background Art

[0002] Aptamers, as a new type of biorecognition molecule, are composed of short-chain DNA or RNA, have a unique three-dimensional folded structure, and can bind to various target molecules with high affinity and specificity. Their application range covers a wide range of fields from simple metal ions, organic dyes, amino acids, peptides, enzymes, proteins, whole cells to complex organisms (such as bacteria and viruses). Compared with traditional antibodies, aptamers show significant advantages, including smaller size, lower immunogenicity, stability over a wide range of pH and temperature, and the ability to be easily synthesized and chemically modified. These advantages together lay the foundation for the widespread application of aptamers in many fields such as biomedicine, diagnostics and biotechnology.

[0003] Especially in the field of biomedicine, targeting the key target of α-thrombin, thrombin aptamers obtained by in vitro SELEX technology screening, such as NU172, have become a hot topic of research. These aptamers not only show the ability to bind thrombin with high affinity, but also stabilize the G-quadruplex region to a certain extent and improve the resistance to enzymatic hydrolysis through their unique double-stranded structure. However, the exposed terminal bases in the double-stranded region of the thrombin aptamer will still be quickly recognized by nucleases, which limits its half-life in the physiological environment and cannot meet the long-term anticoagulation requirements in vivo.

[0004] In order to overcome this challenge, the scientific research community has explored and reported a variety of strategies to extend the in vivo half-life of aptamers. For example, chemical modification of the aptamer skeleton, design of multivalent aptamer structure, and covalent terminal connection of aptamers by introducing exogenous molecules, etc. Although these strategies have improved the in vivo stability of aptamers to a certain extent, they are also accompanied by problems such as high cost, complex preparation process, unsatisfactory yield, and easy introduction of exogenous compound residues, which limit their widespread promotion in practical applications. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, one of the purposes of the present invention is to provide an α-thrombin cyclic NU nucleic acid aptamer, a preparation method and an application thereof, so as to solve the problem that the linear α-thrombin nucleic acid aptamer NU172 is easily hydrolyzed by nucleases, resulting in a short blood half-life and poor thermal stability.
