Among them, 3'-phosphoglycolate (3'-PG) termini are particularly problematic, as they obstruct DNA repair and contribute to genome instability. Several indirect detection strategies have provided valuable insights into 3'-PG lesions; however, the lack of a method for direct and specific labeling of 3'-PG termini continues to limit detailed analyses of their distribution and repair in biological systems. We report a novel chemical labeling method that enables the selective conjugation of biotin to the 3'-PG terminus of synthetic oligonucleotides. The method involves carbodiimide-mediated activation of the 3'-PG carboxyl group using EDC·HCl (1-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride) and NHS (N-hydroxysuccinimide), followed by coupling with Biotin-PEG<sub>11</sub>-Amine to form a stable amide bond. This reaction proceeds specifically at the 3'-PG terminus without modifying 3'-phosphate ends. Under the conditions used, the labeling efficiency was approximately 50%.

Flow cytometric analysis was used to investigate the effect of miR-182 knockdown on cell cycle arrest. In comparison to untreated control MDA-MB-231 cells with MDA-MB-231 cells treated with anti-miR-182, there was a significant increase in the cisplatin-induced early apoptosis phase (<i>p</i> = 0.023). Also, inhibition of miR-182 significantly increased the cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase in MDA-MB-231 cells (<i>p</i> = 0.031). Our results revealed that miR-182 inhibition may play a role in the overcoming of cisplatin resistance by inducing apoptosis and, cell cycle arrest in TNBC.</p>","PeriodicalId":19343,"journal":{"name":"Nucleosides, Nucleotides & Nucleic Acids","volume":" ","pages":"35-49"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142966203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
