While epidermal growth factor (EGF) shows promise in addressing the clinical manifestations of intestinal ulcerative diseases by activating the EGF receptor (EGFR)-mediated cell signaling, its clinical application is hampered by poor protein hydrolytic stability, low thermostability, and difficulty in modification. The development of a novel EGFR agonist for ulcerative colitis remains an urgent need, necessitating innovative solutions to overcome the limitations of current therapies via recombinant EGF protein. Herein, we introduce a novel DNA agonist for EGFR, Dimer-YL, which employs a bivalent aptamer to induce stable receptor dimerization, thereby activating the EGFR signaling and related cell behaviors. Dimer-YL has been demonstrated to recapitulate the EGF-promoted cellular behaviors, including proliferation and migration, as well as repair the damage of intercellular tight junctions. Furthermore, our findings demonstrate the potent therapeutic function of Dimer-YL in alleviating DSS-induced ulcerative colitis in vivo. Together, the present work has revealed Dimer-YL as an innovative DNA molecule for effective EGFR activation, offering promise for the development of EGFR-agonistic agents for therapeutic purposes.
