  • Publication number: 20220372484
    Abstract: The present invention is related to FPR2 receptor agonist aptamers and uses thereof. The present invention is related to a nucleic acid aptamer that is able to specifically bind to the FPR2 receptor and activate said FPR2 receptor, comprising a nucleotide sequence with a sequence identity of at least 70% with the sequence SEQ ID NO. 1, SEQ ID NO. 2 or SEQ ID NO. 3.

  • Publication number: 20220042018
    Abstract: The present invention is based on the identification, by the inventors, of a series of new aptamers containing a minimum common motif and binding specifically, at the intracellular level, to protein kinases MNK1, more specifically to MNK1a and MNK1b, respectively, particularly with a higher affinity for MNK1b than for MNK1a. Said binding between the aptamer and the protein MNK1, as illustrated in the examples of the present invention, provides an effective therapy in the treatment of cancer, more specifically in the treatment of breast cancer, even more specifically in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer. Therefore, these molecules are useful for the production of new pharmaceutical compositions for oncological treatment.

  • Publication number: 20200270310
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the fields of medicine and cancer treatment. The invention more specifically relates to the use of a compound capable of decreasing or inhibiting, in vitro or ex vivo, the expression and/or activity of MAFG and thus increasing ROS-production and chemotherapy sensitivity, specifically in cancer cells resistant to platinum-based therapy. The present disclosure further relates to uses of such compounds, in particular to prepare a pharmaceutical composition to allow or improve the efficiency of a therapy of cancer in a subject in need thereof. The compound of the invention can indeed be advantageously used, in combination with at least one chemotherapeutic dmg, for treating cancer, for preventing cancer metastasis, increasing overall survival and/or for preventing cancer recurrence in a subject.
