Surface engineering of macrophages with nucleic acid aptamers for the capture of circulating tumor cells

In order to enhance the interactions between macrophages and cancer cells, thiol-terminated nucleic acid aptamers were immobilized on methacryloyl-functionalised carbohydrates of macrophages. The adhesion of cancer cells on the surface modified macrophages was significantly accelerated.
