Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a significant contributor to the global mortality rate, and a single biomarker cannot meet the specificity required for CRC screening. To this end, we developed a multiplexed, pump-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) microfluidic chip (LoC-SERS) using a one-step recognition release mechanism; the aptamer-functionalized novel Au nanocrown array (AuNCA) was used as the detection element embedded in the detection zone of the platform for rapid and specific detection of protein markers in multiple samples simultaneously. Here, the corresponding aptamer specifically captured the protein marker, causing the complementary strand of the aptamer carrying the Raman signal molecule to be shed, reducing the SERS signal. Based on this platform, sensitive and specific detection of the target can be accomplished within 15 min with detection limits of 0.031 pg/mL (hnRNP A1) and 0.057 pg/mL (S100P). Meanwhile, the platform was consistent with ELISA results when used to test clinical. By substituting different aptamers, this platform can provide a new solution for the rapid and sensitive detection of protein markers, which has promising applications in future disease detection.

Abstract
As an important biomarker for diagnostics and therapeutics of various diseases, the low-cost, quantitative detection method of microRNAs (miRNAs) has recently caught broad attention. However, their small size and low abundance still derive challenges to quantification detection. In this study, we developed an ultrasensitive and multiplexed surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor for quantifying miRNAs without standard. We introduced the mass transport limitation (MTL) strategy for the absolute quantification of miRNAs. We first explore the mechanism of DNA capture and the condition for triggering MTL on the SPR biosensor. We demonstrated that probes of 22-25 nt in length with fewer influences of the secondary structure provide better triggering of MTL. For proof of concept studies, let-7a, miR-155 and miR-21 were selected as candidate targets. Based on the structure and kinetics analysis, we demonstrate the best capture probe efficiency, and this biosensor's limit of detection (LOD) is 500 fM without any signal amplification. Furthermore, our biosensor achieves multiplex detection, which could detect three targets simultaneously. The quantitative results of miRNA indicated the great prospects of our biosensor in nucleic acid-related early diagnosis and biosensing.

Simultaneous detection method for two cardiac disease protein biomarkers on a single chip modified with mixed aptamers using surface plasmon resonance. Talanta 2024; 267:125232.

Abstract
A simultaneous detection method for two cardiac disease protein biomarkers present in serum samples on a single planar gold chip using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is described. The detection of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), which are known as acute myocardial infarction (AMI) biomarkers, with predetermined clinically relevant concentrations was performed using mixed aptamers specific to each protein tethered on a single gold surface. After the binding of NT-proBNP and/or TNF-α to the mixed aptamers, an antibody specific to each target protein was injected to form a surface sandwich complex to improve selectivity. In order to adjust the dynamic ranges in the known clinically relevant concentration significantly different for NT-proBNP (0.13-0.24 nM) and TNF-α (0.5-3 pM), the surface density ratios of the corresponding pair of aptamer and antibody were first systematically determined, which were the 1:1 mixed aptamer chip with 40 nM anti-NT-proBNP and 100 nM anti-TNF-α. This allowed to establish the distinct dynamic ranges of 0.05-0.5 nM for NT-proBNP and 0.1-5 pM for TNF-α in a buffer, along with detection and quantification limits of 0.03 and 0.19 nM for NT-proBNP and 0.06 and 0.21 pM for TNF-α, respectively. The changes in refractive unit (RU) values observed when exposing both proteins at different concentrations alongside the corresponding fixed concentration of antibodies onto the 1:1 mixed aptamer chip were then correlated to the sum of RU values measured when using the injection of individual protein for evaluating each protein concentration. With a complete characterization of the simultaneous quantification of two protein concentrations in the buffer, the mixed aptamer chip was finally employed for direct measurements of NT-proBNP and TNF-α concentrations in undiluted serum samples from healthy controls and AMI patients. The results of simultaneous SPR measurements for the two proteins in the serum samples were further compared to the individual protein concentration results using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 120:155047. [PMID: 37690230 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.155047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) is responsible for several recent outbreaks of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease in the Asia-Pacific region, and there are currently no vaccines or specific treatments available. We have previously identified two tannins, chebulagic acid (CHLA) and punicalagin (PUG), as efficient entry inhibitors against multiple viruses known to engage cell surface glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Interestingly, these two phytochemicals could also block enterovirus infection by directly inactivating CVA16 virions, which were recently reported to utilize GAGs to mediate its entry. PURPOSE The aim of this study is to evaluate the involvement of GAGs in the anti-CVA16 activities of CHLA and PUG. METHODS To explore a potential mechanistic link, the role of GAGs in promoting CVA16 entry was first confirmed by treating human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells with soluble heparin or GAG lyases including heparinase and chondroitinase. We then performed a combination treatment of CHLA or PUG with the GAG interaction inhibitors to assess whether CHLA's and PUG's anti-CVA16 activities were related to GAG competition. Molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) were conducted to analyze the interactions between CHLA, PUG, and CVA16 capsid. Lastly, CRISPR/Cas9 knockout (KO) of the Exostosin glycosyltransferase 1 (EXT1) gene, which encodes a transmembrane glycosyltransferase involved in heparan sulfate biosynthesis, was used to validate the importance of GAGs in CHLA's and PUG's antiviral effects. RESULTS Intriguingly, combining GAG inhibition via heparin/GAG lyases treatments with CHLA and PUG revealed that their inhibitory activities against CVA16 infection were overlapping. Further molecular docking analysis indicated that the predicted binding sites of CHLA and PUG on the CVA16 capsid are in proximity to the putative residues recognized for GAG interaction, thus pointing to potential interference with the CVA16-GAG association. SPR analysis also confirmed the direct binding of CHLA and PUG to CVA16 capsid. Finally, RD cells with EXT1 KO decreased CHLA's and PUG's antiviral effect on CVA16 infection. CONCLUSION Altogether, our results suggest that CHLA and PUG bind to CVA16 capsid and prevent the virus' interaction with heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate for its entry. This study provides mechanistic insight into the antiviral activity of CHLA and PUG against CVA16, which may be helpful for the development of antiviral strategies against the enterovirus.

Abstract
Precise and early screening of colorectal cancer (CRC) is one crucial yet challenging task for its treatment, and the analysis of multi-targets of CRC in a single assay with high accuracy is essential for pathological research and clinical diagnosis. Here, a CRC-related biomarker pair, microRNA-211 (miRNA-211) and H2S, was detected by constructing a three-dimensional (3D) ordered DNA network. First, trace amount of miRNA-211 could initiate a hybridization chain reaction-based amplification process. A highly ordered 3D DNA network was formed based on the organized assembly of DNA-cube frameworks that were constructed by DNA origamis and Ag nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulated inside. In the presence of the H2S, Ag NPs within the network can be etched to generate Ag2S quantum dots, which could be better visualized in fluorescence in situ cell imaging. Using the 3D DNA ordered network as the sensing platform, it can acquire dual analysis of biomolecule (miRNA-211) and inorganic gas (H2S) in vitro, overcoming the limitations of single type of biomarker detection in a single assay. This assay achieved a wide linearity range of H2S from 0.05 to 10 μM, and exhibited a low limit of detection of 4.78 nM. This strategy allows us to acquire the spatial distributions of H2S and miRNA expression levels in living CRC cells simultaneously, providing a highly sensitive and selective tool for early screening and monitoring of CRC.

Biorecognition Engineering Technologies for Cancer Diagnosis: A Systematic Literature Review of Non-Conventional and Plausible Sensor Development Methods. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14081867. [PMID: 35454775 PMCID: PMC9030888 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14081867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2022] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Approximately 70% of patients with cancer are diagnosed at late stages of the disease in developing countries. This is partly owed to the restricted access to cost-effective and accurate diagnostic tools in healthcare systems. Biosensor diagnostic tools based on conventional antibodies have been a valuable option for creating accessible detection systems for cancer. However, antibodies have certain limitations related to cost, stability, and applicability. The latter promoted the research and development of alternative approaches to generating molecules and molecule-based scaffolds with similar biorecognition properties to antibodies (non-conventional technologies). This review aimed to present and analyze the current trends of three of these emerging non-conventional technologies for biorecognition engineering in cancer diagnostics, named: molecularly imprinted polymers, recombinant antibodies, and antibody mimetic molecules. These non-conventional technologies are promising, relevant, and more accessible alternatives to conventional antibodies in developing cancer biosensors and worthy of being acknowledged by the scientific community, especially for their use in point-of-care cancer diagnostics in developing countries. Abstract Cancer is the second cause of mortality worldwide. Early diagnosis of this multifactorial disease is challenging, especially in populations with limited access to healthcare services. A vast repertoire of cancer biomarkers has been studied to facilitate early diagnosis; particularly, the use of antibodies against these biomarkers has been of interest to detect them through biorecognition. However, there are certain limitations to this approach. Emerging biorecognition engineering technologies are alternative methods to generate molecules and molecule-based scaffolds with similar properties to those presented by antibodies. Molecularly imprinted polymers, recombinant antibodies, and antibody mimetic molecules are three novel technologies commonly used in scientific studies. This review aimed to present the fundamentals of these technologies and address questions about how they are implemented for cancer detection in recent scientific studies. A systematic analysis of the scientific peer-reviewed literature regarding the use of these technologies on cancer detection was carried out starting from the year 2000 up to 2021 to answer these questions. In total, 131 scientific articles indexed in the Web of Science from the last three years were included in this analysis. The results showed that antibody mimetic molecules technology was the biorecognition technology with the highest number of reports. The most studied cancer types were: multiple, breast, leukemia, colorectal, and lung. Electrochemical and optical detection methods were the most frequently used. Finally, the most analyzed biomarkers and cancer entities in the studies were carcinoembryonic antigen, MCF-7 cells, and exosomes. These technologies are emerging tools with adequate performance for developing biosensors useful in cancer detection, which can be used to improve cancer diagnosis in developing countries.

Abstract
Blood analysis is an established approach to monitor various diseases, ranging from heart defects and diabetes to cancer. Among various tumor markers in the blood, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have received increasing attention due to the fact that they originate directly from the tumors. Capturing and detecting CTCs represents a promising approach in cancer diagnostics and clinical management of cancers. CTCs in blood progress to self-seeding a tumour or initiating a new lesion mass. Cytosensors are biosensors intended to identify CTCs in a blood sample of cancer patients and provide information about the cancer status. Herein, we firstly discuss different detection methods of state-of-the-art optical cytosensors, including colorimetry, fluorescence, surface plasmon resonance, photoelectrochemistry and electrochemiluminescence. Then we review the significant advances made in implementing biorecognition elements and nanomaterials for the detection of cancer cells. Despite great progress in optical cytosensors, and their integration with smartphones, they have still only been explored to prototype stages. Much more effort is needed to fulfil their potential in modern cancer diagnostics and in monitoring the state of disease for cancer patients.

Abstract
Since the invention of the first biosensors 70 years ago, they have turned into valuable and versatile tools for various applications, ranging from disease diagnosis to environmental monitoring. Traditionally, antibodies have been employed as the capture probes in most biosensors, owing to their innate ability to bind their target with high affinity and specificity, and are still considered as the gold standard. Yet, the resulting immunosensors often suffer from considerable limitations, which are mainly ascribed to the antibody size, conjugation chemistry, stability, and costs. Over the past decade, aptamers have emerged as promising alternative capture probes presenting some advantages over existing constraints of immunosensors, as well as new biosensing concepts. Herein, we review the employment of antibodies and aptamers as capture probes in biosensing platforms, addressing the main aspects of biosensor design and mechanism. We also aim to compare both capture probe classes from theoretical and experimental perspectives. Yet, we highlight that such comparisons are not straightforward, and these two families of capture probes should not be necessarily perceived as competing but rather as complementary. We, thus, elaborate on their combined use in hybrid biosensing schemes benefiting from the advantages of each biorecognition element.

Enhanced Plasmonic Biosensor Utilizing Paired Antibody and Label-Free Fe 3O 4 Nanoparticles for Highly Sensitive and Selective Detection of Parkinson's α-Synuclein in Serum. BIOSENSORS-BASEL 2021; 11:bios11100402.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an acute and progressive neurodegenerative disorder, and diagnosis of the disease at its earliest stage is of paramount importance to improve the life expectancy of patients. α-Synuclein (α-syn) is a potential biomarker for the early diagnosis of PD, and there is a great need to develop a biosensing platform that precisely detects α-syn in human body fluids. Herein, we developed a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor based on the label-free iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) and paired antibody for the highly sensitive and selective detection of α-syn in serum samples. The sensitivity of the SPR platform is enhanced significantly by directly depositing Fe3O4 NPs on the Au surface at a high density to increase the decay length of the evanescent field on the Au film. Moreover, the utilization of rabbit-type monoclonal antibody (α-syn-RmAb) immobilized on Au films allows the SPR platform to have a high affinity-selectivity binding performance compared to mouse-type monoclonal antibodies as a common bioreceptor for capturing α-syn molecules. As a result, the current platform has a detection limit of 5.6 fg/mL, which is 20,000-fold lower than that of commercial ELISA. The improved sensor chip can also be easily regenerated to repeat the α-syn measurement with the same sensitivity. Furthermore, the SPR sensor was applied to the direct analysis of α-syn in serum samples. By using a format of paired α-syn-RmAb, the SPR sensor provides a recovery rate in the range from 94.5% to 104.3% to detect the α-syn in diluted serum samples precisely. This work demonstrates a highly sensitive and selective quantification approach to detect α-syn in human biofluids and paves the way for the future development in the early diagnosis of PD.

Abstract
A fluorescent paper strip immunoassay in conjunction with carbon nanodots@silica (CND@SiO2) as a label was developed for the quantitative measurements of human serum amyloid A1 (hSAA1) in serum at clinically significant concentrations for lung cancer diagnosis. Monodispersed CND@SiO2 was prepared by cohydrolysis between silane-crosslinked carbon nanodots and silica precursors via the Ströber method and further attached covalently to anti-hSAA1 (14F8) monoclonal antibody [anti-hSAA1(14F8)] specific to the hSAA1 target. The hSAA1 concentrations were then determined by quantifying the blue fluorescence intensity upon 365 nm excitation of the captured hSAA1 with anti-hSAA1(14F8)-CND@SiO2 conjugates in the test line on a paper strip where anti-hSAA1 (10G1) monoclonal antibody was physisorbed. The developed fluorescent paper strip with CND@SiO2 can detect hSAA1 at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 5 nM (R2 = 0.995), with a limit of detection of 0.258 nM in 10 mM phosphate buffer pH 7.4 containing human serum albumin. The performance of recovery (90.98-109.17%) and repeatability (coefficients of variation < 8.46%) obtained was also acceptable for quantitative determinations. The platform was employed for direct determination of hSAA1 concentrations in undiluted serum samples from lung cancer patients (relative standard deviation (RSD) < 7.46%) and healthy humans (RSD < 3.96%). The results were compared with those obtained using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay alongside liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry measurements.

Abstract
Biosensor technology is considered to be a great alternative in analytical techniques over the conventional methods. Among many recently developed techniques and devices, aptasensors are interesting because of their high specificity, selectivity and sensitivity. Combining aptamer as a biological recognition element with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as probe, are becoming more general owing to their beneficial properties, including low cost and ability to analyze specific targets on-site and using naked eye. Hydrogen bonds, nucleic acid hybridization, aptamer-target and antigen-antibody binding, Raman signature, enzyme inhibition, and enzyme-mimicking activity are main different sensing strategies exploited in AuNPs-based optical aptasensors. In this review article, we discussed the recent advances in optical aptasensors with a special emphasis on the catalytic activity property of AuNPs.

ANAL SCI 2020; 36:1561-1563. [PMID: 32863331 DOI: 10.2116/analsci.20n018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/17/2020] [Indexed: 08/09/2023]
Abstract
A molecularly imprinted polymer-modified potentiometric histamine (HIS) sensor was prepared and used for quantitative determination of HIS in bovine serum. The calibration curve using the potential responses measured in 1 × 10-3 mol L-1 phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) showed good linearity in the HIS concentration range of 3 × 10-4 to 1 × 10-2 mol L-1 (r = 0.92), with a detection limit of 1.6 × 10-4 mol L-1. In bovine serum samples, the HIS sensor showed good recovery values of 91 - 104%. Therefore, this HIS sensor successfully determined the HIS concentration in bovine serum samples.
