Nanoscale drug delivery systems that are both multifunctional and targeted have been developed using proteins as a basis, thanks to their attractive biomacromolecule properties. A novel nanocarrier, aptamer (AS1411)-conjugated β-lactoglobulin/poly-l-lysine (BLG/Ap/PL) nanoparticles, was in this study. To unique formulation, the as-prepared nanocarrier blends distinctive features of an chemotherapeutic targeting agent with those protein nanocarriers. By loading cabazitaxel (CTX) onto nanocarriers, therapeutic potential BLG/Ap/PL could be demonstrated. The CTX-loaded (CTX@BLG/Ap/PL) showed regulated release profile acidic milieu, which improve efficacy cancer cells high encapsulation up 93%. However, compared free CTX, CTX@BLG/Ap/PL killed colorectal HCT116 higher at 24 48 h. Further investigation confirms apoptosis by acridine orange ethidium bromide (AO/EB), DAPI staining morphological changes, chromatin condensation, membrane blebbing treated cell through flow cytometry displayed percentages apoptosis. Cell cycle analysis revealed induced sub-G1 G2/M phase (apoptosis) Annexin V/propidium iodide (PI) confirmed induces cells. Overall, study proved had several advantages over drugs promise solution clinical problems associated antitumor systems.

Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most common lethal gynecologic cause of death in women worldwide, with a high mortality rate and increasing incidence. Despite advancements treatment, OC patients still die from their disease due to late-stage diagnosis, lack effective diagnostic methods, relapses. Aptamers, synthetic, short single-stranded oligonucleotides, have emerged as promising anticancer therapeutics. Their ability selectively bind target molecules, including cancer-related proteins receptors, has revolutionized drug discovery biomarker identification. Aptamers offer unique insights into molecular pathways involved development progression. Moreover, they show immense potential delivery systems, enabling targeted therapeutic agents cells while minimizing off-target effects reducing systemic toxicity. In context OC, integration aptamers non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) presents an opportunity for precise efficient gene targeting. Additionally, conjugation nanoparticles allows accurate ncRNAs specific cells, tissues, or organs. this review, we will summarize use challenges associated alone aptamer–ncRNA conjugates, nanoparticles, multivalent aptamer-based therapeutics treatment OC.
