selection of aptamers for amyloid &beta;-protein, the causative agent of alzheimer&#39;s disease

アルツハイマー病（AD）は1、その発症前診断が困難なレンダリング狡猾なコースを持つプログレッシブ、年齢依存性、神経変性疾患である。明確なADの診断は、このように、ADの発症前、早期診断が効果的な治療法2,3の開発と管理のための非常に重要である確立する、唯一の事後分析を実現しています。 アミロイドβ-蛋白質は（Aβ）ADの病因の中心です。水溶性、オリゴマーAβアセンブリはAD 4,5におけるシナプス機能障害とニューロンの損失の基礎となる神経毒性に影響を及ぼすと考えられている。可溶性Aβアセンブリの様々な形態が記載されている、しかし、それらの相互関係と、ADの病因および病因に関連性は複雑で、ウェル6理解されていない。症状が現れる前に、特定の分子認識ツールでは、Aβアセンブリ間の関係を解明し、疾患の過程で早期にこれらのアセンブリの検出と特徴付けを促進することができる。分子認識は、一般的に抗体に依存しています。しかし、分子認識ツールの代替クラス、アプタマーは、抗体7,8の相対重要な利点を提供しています。指数関数的濃縮（SELEX）9,10によるリガンドの系統進化：アプタマーは、 試験管内の選択によって生成されたオリゴヌクレオチドである。 SELEXは、ダーウィンの進化論に似て、可能にする、という反復的なプロセスであり、選択、増幅、濃縮、およびプロパティの永続化、など、熱心な、特定の、リガンド結合（アプタマー）または触媒活性（リボザイムとDNAzymes）。 現代のバイオテクノロジーと医学11のツールとしてのアプタマーの出現にもかかわらず、彼らはアミロイドの分野で十分に活用されています。いくつかのRNAまたはssDNAのアプタマーは、プリオン蛋白質（プリオン）12月16日の様々な形態に対して選択されています。組換えウシのPrPに対して生成されたRNAアプタマーは、アミロイド線維の18を形成する完全長のPrPの水溶性、オリゴマー、β-シートが豊富な立体配座の変異型、ウシのPrP -β17を認識することが示された。アプタマーは、線維のβ2 -ミクログロブリン（β2 m）の単量体といくつかの形式を使用して生成されたβ2メートルフィブリル19に加えて、特定の他のアミロイドタンパク質の線維を結合することが見出された。 Ylera ら 。固定化単量体のAβ4020に対して選択されたRNAアプタマーを説明した。不意に、これらのアプタマーは、線維Aβ40をバインド。完全に、これらのデータはいくつかの重要な問題を提起する。なぜ単量体のタンパク質に対して選択されたアプタマーは、それらのポリマー形態を認識するのですか？アミロイド生成性タンパク質の単量体及び/またはオリゴマーの形態に対するアプタマーが得られるか？これらの質問に対処するために、我々は、光誘起架橋無修正のタンパク質（PICUP）22,23を使用して生成された共有結合で安定化オリゴマーAβ4021のアプタマーを選択することを試みた。前回の調査結果17,19,20と同様に、これらのアプタマーは、おそらく構造aptatope 21潜在的に共通のアミロイドを認識Aβおよび他のいくつかのアミロイド蛋白質の線維と反応した。ここで、我々は、これらのアプタマー21の製造に使用されるSELEX方法論を提示する。
