  • Publication number: 20030236205
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a hybridization signal amplification method (HSAM) that can be used to form nanostructures for use in drug delivery and diagnostics and may comprise molecules aimed at a specific target cell of interest. The nanostuctures may be used to treat infectious diseases and physiological disorders such as proliferative, genetic, neurological or metabolic disorders. The nanostructures of the invention comprise nucleic acid molecules having affinity pairs incorporated into their structure. These affinity pairs are formed from ligand and ligand binding moieties that bind to nucleic acid molecules. This bound entity is a complex, web-like structure that serves as a matrix or framework for delivery of therapeutic or diagnostic agents. Since the nanostructures of the invention are comprised of biocompatible and biodegradable materials, such as nucleic acid molecules and proteins, they provide a safe and easily degradable delivery system.
