AptaTeam

Słowa kluczowe	mass spectrometry aptamers biomarkers proteomics
Opis zakresu działań	The AptaTeam research team studies are based on identification of short DNA and RNA sequences exhibiting a specific spatial structure, which allows for selectively binding "antigen" molecules. Previous research has focused on developing a proteomic strategy for identifying aptamer-binding proteins in various cell models, including cancer disease.

Obszary badawcze	The AptaTeam participates in studies based on identification of aptamer sequences that specifically recognize cancer cells, based on interactions occurring in nature (POB 5). Aptamer sequences will be used to develop a diagnostic test that can be performed in a hospital laboratory (not requiring advanced equipment or a specialized analyst). Implementation of a simple and modern test would allow for quick and effective predictive testing among patients with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer, and the use of individualized therapies that increase the chances of survival.
Współpraca	AptaTeam cooperates with the world-class laboratory of Professor Günter Mayer (LIMES Institute of Bonn University, Center of Aptamer Research and Development)
