## Abstract Prostate tumor cells overβexpress a prostateβspecific membrane antigen (PSMA) that can be used as a marker to select these cells from highly heterogeneous clinical samples, even when found in low abundance. Antibodies and aptamers have been developed that specifically bind to PSMA. In t
## Abstract RNA and DNA aptamers developed by systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) have turned into important tools in diagnostics, research, and therapeutics. Unlike antibodies, highβaffinity and specific aptamers identified through an __in vitro__ selection process ca
