DNA- and RNA-aptamers binding the soluble interleukin-6-receptor
The invention concerns DNA- and RNA-aptamers with high affinity and specificity for the human soluble IL-6-receptor with no or very low immunogenicity. These aptamers are very promising substances to treat or prevent diseases involving the IL-6-receptor, such as inflammation, cancer or infections. Furthermore, they can be easily and cost-efficiently produced and stored.
