Therapeutic Oligonucleotides for Neurodegenerative Diseases: Aptamer Strategies and Clay Nanoparticle-Based Delivery.
Review in Chemical record (New York, N.Y.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Aptamers have emerged as promising therapeutic oligonucleotides (TOs) due to their structural adaptability, high binding affinity, and remarkable specificity toward diverse biological targets. Among them, G-quadruplex-forming aptamers stand out for their unique secondary structures and distinct chemical properties. Their potential in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's lies in their ability to inhibit protein aggregation and modulate pathogenic pathways. However, their application is hindered by enzymatic degradation and limited membrane permeability. To overcome these issues, chemical modifications, such as backbone and sugar alterations, and nanomaterial-based delivery strategies have been developed. Notably, clay nanoparticles, such as halloysite nanotubes and montmorillonite, have gained attention as effective carriers for TOs, enhancing their structural stability and bioavailability. This review discusses recent advancements in aptamer-based TOs, with a focus on G-quadruplex-forming oligonucleotides, their therapeutic potential in neurodegenerative diseases, and innovative nanocarrier systems that can improve their stability and targeted delivery. Finally, it highlights current challenges and future directions in the chemical design and formulation of aptamer-based therapeutics for targeted applications.
