Microfluidic chip system for the selection and enrichment of cell binding aptamers

Abstract: Aptamers are promising cell targeting ligands for several applications such as for the diagnosis, therapy, and drug delivery. Especially, in the field of regenerative medicine, stem cell specific aptamers have an enormous potential. Using the combinatorial chemistry process SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential enrichment), aptamers are selected from a huge oligonucleotide library consisting of approximately 10 15 different oligonucleotides. Here, we developed a microfluidic chip system that ca… Show more

“…Using this strategy, they successfully identified a high-affinity aptamer that was a subset of specific interactions with distinct epitopes on malaria-parasite infected red blood cells. In order to improve efficiency and selectivity, some groups have developed techniques such as the volume dilution challenge microfluidic SELEX (VDC-MSELEX) [ 20 ], dielectrophoresis and electrophoresis SELEX [ 21 ], SELEX assisted by graphene oxide (GO) [ 22 ], surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based SELEX methods [ 23 , 24 ]. SPR-based SELEX methods have attracted attention in recent years because selection and evaluation can be performed simultaneously without labeling the sensor.…”

“…Microfluidic affinity selection has been performed, in conjunction with off-chip amplification, against targets retained using silica capillary walls [24], microbeads [2532] or sol-gels [3335], or against cells in solution [36, 37], to increase selection stringency [2529, 36, 37], create more favorable biomolecular environments [3335], or allow simultaneous positive and negative selections [38]. Moreover, microchips have been developed in an attempt to integrate the overall SELEX process using pneumatically based flow control for isolation of aptamers against viruses [39], cells [28, 40, 41] and proteins [3032, 42, 43].…”

“…Since the first demonstration in 1990, 1,2 microfluidic chip electrophoresis (MCE), as a highly integrated and automated portable device, has been developed rapidly with important applications in many areas such as life science, biology, medicine, food, and environmental monitoring, [3][4][5][6][7] where entire chemical and bio-analyses in miniaturized volumes are performed with high sensitivities and efficencies. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Organic materials such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) have been used to fabricate MCE.…”
