Abstract
Biodetection for non-invasive diagnostics of fluids, especially urine, remains a challenge to scientists due to low target concentrations. And biological complexes of the detection target may contain contaminants that also interfere with any assay. Dengue non-structural 1 protein (Dengue NS1) is an important biomarker for dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Here, we developed an Au-decorated nanowire platform and applied it with a sandwich fluorophore-linked immunosorbent well plate assay (FLISA) to detect Dengue NS1 in urine. For the platform, we fabricated zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires to provide a high surface area and then coated them with gold nanoparticles (ZnO/Au nanowires) to simply modify the Dengue NS1 antibody and enhance the fluorescence intensity. Our platform employs a sandwich FLISA that exhibits high sensitivity, specifically detecting Dengue NS1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.35 pg/mL. This LOD was 4500-fold lower than the LOD of a commercially available kit for Dengue NS1 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. We believe that our ZnO/Au nanowire platform has the potential to revolutionize the field of non-invasive diagnostics for dengue.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) contain a subset of proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids that maintain the characteristics of the parent cell. Immunotherapy using EVs has become a focus of research due to their unique features and bioinspired applications in cancer treatment. Unlike conventional immunotherapy using tumor fragments, EVs can be easily obtained from bodily fluids without invasive actions. We previously fabricated nanowire devices that were specialized for EV collection, but they were not suitable for cell culturing. In this study, we fabricated a ZnO/Al2O3 core-shell nanowire platform that could collect more than 60% of the EVs from the cell supernatant. Additionally, we could continue to culture dendritic cells (DCs) on the platform as an artificial lymph node to investigate cell maturation into antigen-presenting cells. Finally, using this platform, we reproduced a series of on-site immune processes that are among the pivotal immune functions of DCs and include such processes as antigen uptake, antigen presentation, and endocytosis of cancer-derived EVs. This platform provides a new ex vivo tool for EV-DC-mediated immunotherapies.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by all cell types are involved in the cell-to-cell transfer of regulatory factors that influence cell and tissue phenotypes in normal and diseased tissues. EVs are thus a rich source of biomarker targets for assays that analyze blood and urinary EVs for disease diagnosis. Sensitive biomarker detection in EVs derived from specific cell populations is a key major hurdle when analyzing complex biological samples, but innovative approaches surveyed in this Perspective can streamline EV isolation and enhance the sensitivity of EV detection procedures required for clinical application of EV-based diagnostics and therapeutics, including nanotechnology and microfluidics, to achieve EV characterizations. Finally, this Perspective also outlines opportunities and challenges remaining for clinical translation of EV-based assays.

Glioblastoma biomarkers in urinary extracellular vesicles reveal the potential for a 'liquid gold' biopsy. Br J Cancer 2024; 130:836-851.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biomarkers that reflect glioblastoma tumour activity and treatment response are urgently needed to help guide clinical management, particularly for recurrent disease. As the urinary system is a major clearance route of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs; 30-1000 nm nanoparticles) we explored whether sampling urinary-EVs could serve as a simple and non-invasive liquid biopsy approach for measuring glioblastoma-associated biomarkers. METHODS Fifty urine specimens (15-60 ml) were collected from 24 catheterised glioblastoma patients immediately prior to primary (n = 17) and recurrence (n = 7) surgeries, following gross total resection (n = 9), and from age/gender-matched healthy participants (n = 14). EVs isolated by differential ultracentrifugation were characterised and extracted proteomes were analysed by high-resolution data-independent acquisition liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (DIA-LC-MS/MS). RESULTS Overall, 6857 proteins were confidently identified in urinary-EVs (q-value ≤ 0.01), including 94 EV marker proteins. Glioblastoma-specific proteomic signatures were determined, and putative urinary-EV biomarkers corresponding to tumour burden and recurrence were identified (FC ≥ | 2 | , adjust p-val≤0.05, AUC > 0.9). CONCLUSION In-depth DIA-LC-MS/MS characterisation of urinary-EVs substantiates urine as a viable source of glioblastoma biomarkers. The promising 'liquid gold' biomarker panels described here warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Exosome therapy holds great promise as a novel approach to improve acute skin wound healing. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of exosome biology and its potential applications in acute skin wound healing and beyond. Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles secreted by various stem cells, have emerged as potent mediators of intercellular communication and tissue repair. One advantage of exosome therapy is its ability to avoid potential risks associated with stem cell therapy, such as immune rejection or stem cells differentiating into unwanted cell types. However, further research is necessary to optimize exosome therapy, not only in the areas of exosome isolation, characterization, and engineering, but also in determining the optimal dose, timing, administration, and frequency of exosome therapy. Thus, optimization of exosome therapy is critical for the development of more effective and safer exosome-based therapies for acute skin wound healing and other diseases induced by cancer, ischemia, or inflammation. This review provides valuable insights into the potential of exosome therapy and highlights the need for further research to optimize exosome therapy for clinical use.

Abstract
With the rapid development of population ageing, bone-related diseases seriously affecting the life of the elderly. Over the past few years, organoids, cell clusters with specific functions and structures that are self-induced from stem cells after three-dimensional culture in vitro, have been widely used for bone therapy. Moreover, organoid extracellular vesicles (OEVs) have emerging as promising cell-free nanocarriers due to their vigoroso physiological effects, significant biological functions, stable loading capacity, and great biocompatibility. In this review, we first provide a comprehensive overview of biogenesis, internalisation, isolation, and characterisation of OEVs. We then comprehensively highlight the differences between OEVs and traditional EVs. Subsequently, we present the applications of natural OEVs in disease treatment. We also summarise the engineering modifications of OEVs, including engineering parental cells and engineering OEVs after isolation. Moreover, we provide an outlook on the potential of natural and engineered OEVs in bone-related diseases. Finally, we critically discuss the advantages and challenges of OEVs in the treatment of bone diseases. We believe that a comprehensive discussion of OEVs will provide more innovative and efficient solutions for complex bone diseases.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GB) tumors are one of the most insidious cancers which take over the brain and defy therapy. Over time and in response to treatment the tumor and the brain cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) undergo many genetic/epigenetic driven changes in their phenotypes and this is reflected in the cellular contents within the extracellular vesicles (EVs) they produce. With the result that some EVs try to subdue the tumor (friends of the brain), while others participate in the glioblastoma takeover (foes of the brain) in a dynamic and ever changing process. Monitoring the contents of these EVs in biofluids can inform decisions based on GB status to guide therapeutic intervention. This review covers primarily recent research describing the different cell types in the brain, as well as the tumor cells, which participate in this EV deluge. This includes EVs produced by the tumor which manipulate the transcriptome of normal cells in their environment in support of tumor growth (foes), as well as responses of normal cells which try to restrict tumor growth and invasion, including traveling to cervical lymph nodes to present tumor neo-antigens to dendritic cells (DCs). In addition EVs released by tumors into biofluids can report on the status of living tumor cells via their cargo and thus serving as biomarkers. However, EVs released by tumor cells and their influence on normal cells in the tumor microenvironment is a major factor in immune suppression and coercion of normal brain cells to join the GB "band wagon". Efforts are being made to deploy EVs as therapeutic vehicles for drugs and small inhibitory RNAs. Increasing knowledge about EVs in the TME is being utilized to track tumor progression and response to therapy and even to weaponize EVs to fight the tumor.

Abstract
Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) on tumor-derived small extracellular vesicles (EVs) is a biomarker for prediction of the immunotherapy response. However, conventional bulk measurement can hardly analyze the expression of PD-L1 on individual tumor-derived EVs. Herein, a method for localized imaging of tumor-derived individual EVs PD-L1 (LITIE) is developed. In this assay, EVs in plasma were directly captured on a biochip. Then the liposome-mediated membrane fusion strategy was used to image miR-21 in EVs to discriminate miR-21-positive EVs from the whole EVs populations. Subsequently, the primer exchange reaction (PER) is applied to generate localized and amplified fluorescent signals for imaging PD-L1 on identified tumor-derived EVs. When applied in clinical sample tests, the LITIE assay could effectively distinguish breast cancer patients from healthy donors or patients with benign tumors. Interestingly, in a mice melanoma model, the LITIE assay showed the ability to predict immunotherapy response even before drug treatment. Thus, we think the strategy of measuring individual tumor-derived EVs PD-L1 could serve as an alternative way for screening clinical responders suitable for immunotherapy.

Abstract
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicles (EVs) are molecular biomarkers in liquid biopsies that can be applied for cancer detection, which are known to carry information on the necessary conditions for oncogenesis and cancer cell-specific activities after oncogenesis, respectively. Analyses for both cfDNA and EVs from the same body fluid can provide insights into screening and identifying the molecular subtypes of cancer; however, a major bottleneck is the lack of efficient and standardized techniques for the isolation of cfDNA and EVs from clinical specimens. Here, we achieved catch-and-release isolation by hydrogen bond-mediated binding of cfDNA in urine to zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires, which also capture EVs by surface charge, and subsequently we identified genetic mutations in urinary cfDNA. The binding strength of hydrogen bonds between single-crystal ZnO nanowires and DNA was found to be equal to or larger than that of conventional hydrophobic interactions, suggesting the possibility of isolating trace amounts of cfDNA. Our results demonstrated that nanowire-based cancer screening assay can screen cancer and can identify the molecular subtypes of cancer in urine from brain tumor patients through EV analysis and cfDNA mutation analysis. We anticipate our method to be a starting point for more sophisticated diagnostic models of cancer screening and identification.

Zhu Z, Hu E, Shen H, Tan J, Zeng S. The functional and clinical roles of liquid biopsy in patient-derived models. J Hematol Oncol 2023; 16:36. [PMID: 37031172 PMCID: PMC10082989 DOI: 10.1186/s13045-023-01433-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The liquid biopsy includes the detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and CTC clusters in blood, as well as the detection of, cell-free DNA (cfDNA)/circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the patient's body fluid. Liquid biopsy has important roles in translational research. But its clinical utility is still under investigation. Newly emerged patient-derived xenograft (PDX) and CTC-derived xenograft (CDX) faithfully recapitulate the genetic and morphological features of the donor patients' tumor and patient-derived organoid (PDO) can mostly mimic tumor growth, tumor microenvironment and its response to drugs. In this review, we describe how the development of these patient-derived models has assisted the studies of CTCs and CTC clusters in terms of tumor biological behavior exploration, genomic analysis, and drug testing, with the help of the latest technology. We then summarize the studies of EVs and cfDNA/ctDNA in PDX and PDO models in early cancer diagnosis, tumor burden monitoring, drug test and response monitoring, and molecular profiling. The challenges faced and future perspectives of research related to liquid biopsy using patient-derived models are also discussed.
