Provided are aptamers able to bind to ligands associated with cancer cells. The ligands may particularly be associated with brain cancers, such as gliomas. The aptamers may be used therapeutically for the prevention and/or treatment of such cancers. Aptamers may be associated with anti-cancer agents, or with detection moieties. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment employing such aptamers.

The present invention is directed to a dietary supplement comprising palatinose or a derivative thereof. The dietary supplement may be a nutritional product, a sports performance product, a weight loss product or a meal replacement product. The present invention is also directed to a method of increasing the absorption of a compound into the bloodstream, cells and tissue comprising administering palatinose, or a derivative thereof, in combination with the compound. The present invention also relates to a diluent for parenteral compounds. The diluent comprises palatinose or a derivative thereof. Another aspect of the present invention is directed to a method of decreasing the recovery time to pre-performance levels of total adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels in a mammal comprising administering palatinose or a derivative thereof, to the mammal. The present invention is further directed to a method of supplying a compound to a diabetic patient, burn victim patient or trauma victim patient. The method comprises administering palatinose, or a derivative thereof, in combination with the compound.
