Small-molecule drugs play an important role in the treatment of various diseases. The screening of enzyme inhibitors is one of the most important means in developing therapeutic drugs. Herein, we demonstrate a liquid crystal (LC)-based screening assay assisted with enzyme catalysis-induced aptamer release for screening xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitors. The oxidation of xanthine by XOD prevents the specific binding of xanthine and its aptamer, which induces a bright image of LCs. However, when XOD is inhibited,
