The interaction of human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) and heregulin (HRG) is involved in resistance to human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted cancer treatment, such as therapies using anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody. Therefore, inhibition of the HER3/HRG interaction is potentially valuable therapeutic target for cancer treatment. In this study, we used in vitro selection, also known as systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) against the extracellular domain of human HER3, and discovered a novel RNA aptamer. Pull-down and bio-layer interferometry assays showed that RNA aptamer discovered specifically bound to HER3 with a dissociation constant (K) of 700 nM. Pull-down assays using chemiluminescence detection also revealed that the HER3-binding RNA aptamer inhibited interactions between HER3 and human HRG. These results indicated that the novel HER3-binding RNA aptamer has potential to be used as basic tool in a range of applications involving HER3/HRG interactions, including research, therapeutic, and diagnostic applications.
