Syn-RA16 had a high binding affinity (Kd ~ 24.75 nM), akin to the previously documented RA16 aptamer, and displayed dose-dependent suppression of cell viability, with IC50 values around 118.4 nM
In addition, samples from age (1 year)- and sex-matched autoantibody-negative UFMs ( n =194, 91 female, 103 male) were analysed
Cell pellets were mounted on ethanol washed CaF 2 window and air-dried as per the procedure mentioned previously
Statistical Analysis The results of photoinactivation were expressed as mean standard error of the means (SEM)
