Abstract
Cancer imposes a severe threat to people's health and lives, thus pressing a huge medical and economic burden on individuals and communities. Therefore, early diagnosis of cancer is indispensable in the timely prevention and effective treatment for patients. Exosome has recently become an attractive cancer biomarker in noninvasive early diagnosis because of the unique physiology and pathology functions, which reflects remarkable information regarding the cancer microenvironment, and plays an important role in the occurrence and evolution of cancer. Meanwhile, biosensors have gained great attention for the detection of exosomes due to their superior properties, such as convenient operation, real-time readout, high sensitivity, and remarkable specificity, suggesting promising biomedical applications in the early diagnosis of cancer. In this review, the latest advances of biosensors regarding the assay of exosomes were summarized, and the superiorities of exosomes as markers for the early diagnosis of cancer were evaluated. Moreover, the recent challenges and further opportunities of developing effective biosensors for the early diagnosis of cancer were discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Shigella flexneri (S. flexneri) is prevalent worldwide and the most common Shigella in many countries, causing highly contagious diarrhea, which seriously threatens public health. This study aimed to develop a colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for the rapid, accurate, and visualization detection of S. flexneri. METHODS According to the screened specific genes of S. flexneri, three groups of LAMP primers were designed and evaluated, and the colorimetric LAMP reaction volume was optimized. The specificity of the colorimetric LAMP was validated by 20 S. flexneri and 96 non-S. flexneri clinical isolates. In addition, the sensitivity of the developed assay was evaluated by the serial 10-fold dilutions of plasmid DNA. RESULTS A colorimetric LAMP assay was developed based on the specific S. flexneri hypothetical protein gene (Accession: AE014073 Region: 4170556.4171068). The colorimetric LAMP method had good specificity for detecting S. flexneri and enabled detection of S. flexneri within 30 minutes, with a plasmid detection limit of 7*10° copies/μL. The results of amplification could be easily identified by color. CONCLUSIONS This colorimetric LAMP assay could be used for rapid and accurate diagnosis of S. flexneri infection, especially in remote hospitals and laboratories with under-equipped medical facilities, and in situations where an urgent diagnosis is needed.

Abstract
The hybrid method upon combining rolling circle amplification and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RCA-LAMP) was developed to quantify very small amount of different type of RNAs, such as miRNAs. RCA-LAMP can help detect short sequences through padlock probe (PLP) circularization and exhibit powerful DNA amplification. However, one of the factors that determines the detection limit of RCA-LAMP is non-specific amplification. In this study, we improved the accuracy of RCA-LAMP through applying RNase H-dependent PCR (rhPCR) technology. In this method, the non-specific amplification was suppressed by using the rh primer, which is designed through blocking the modification at the 3'end to stop DNA polymerase reaction and replacing the 6th DNA molecule from the end with RNA using RNase H2 enzyme. Traditional RCA-LAMP amplified the non-specific amplicons from linear PLP without a targeting reaction, while RCA-LAMP with rh primer and RNase H2 suppressed the non-specific amplification. Conversely, we identified the risk posed upon conducting PLP cyclization reaction using Splint R ligase in the RNA-targeting step that occurred even in the RNA-negative condition, which is another factor determining the detection limit of RCA-LAMP. Therefore, this study contributes in improving the accuracy of RNA quantification using RCA-LAMP.

Abstract
RNA analytical platforms gained extensive attention recently for RNA-based molecular analysis. However, the major challenge for analyzing RNAs is their low concentration in blood plasma samples, hindering the use of RNAs for diagnostics. Platforms that can enrich RNAs are essential to enhance molecular detection. Here, we developed the annealed ZnO/Al2O3 core-shell nanowire device as a platform to capture RNAs. We showed that the annealed ZnO/Al2O3 core-shell nanowire could capture RNAs with high efficiency compared to that of other circulating nucleic acids, including genomic DNA (gDNA) and cell-free DNA (cfDNA). Moreover, the nanowire was considered to be biocompatible with blood plasma samples due to the crystalline structure of the Al2O3 shell which serves as a protective layer to prevent nanowire degradation. Our developed device has the potential to be a platform for RNA-based extraction and detection.

Abstract
Nucleic acids are genetic materials in the human body that play important roles in storing, copying, and transmitting genetic information. Abnormal nucleic acid sequences, base mutations, and genetic changes often lead to cancer and other diseases. Meanwhile, methylated DNA is one of the main epigenetic modifications, which is considered to be an excellent biomarker in the early detection, prognosis, and treatment of cancers. Therefore, a multifunctional electrochemical biosensor was constructed with sturdy tetrahedral tripods, which assisted multiple tandem hairpins through base complementary pairing and effective ultra-sensitive detection of targets (DNA, microRNA, and methylated DNA). In the experiments, experimental conditions were optimized, and different DNA concentrations in serum were detected to verify the sensitivity of the biosensor and the feasibility of this protocol. In addition, microRNA and DNA methylation were detected through different designs of tetrahedral tripods (TTs) that capture probes to prove the superiority of this scheme. A sturdy pyramid structure of TTs extremely enhanced the capture efficiency of targets. The targets triggered the one-step isothermal multi-tandem amplification reaction by incubating multiple hairpin assemblies. To our knowledge, a combination of two parts, which greatly reduced background interference and decreased non-specific substance interference, has appeared for the first time in this paper. Moreover, the load area of electrochemical substances was significantly increased than that in previous studies. This greatly increased the detection range and detection limit of targets. The electrochemical signal responses were generated in freely diffusing hexaammineruthenium(iii) chloride (RuHex). RuHex could adhere to the DNA phosphate backbone by a powerful electrostatic attraction, causing increased current responses. Schematic illustration of the fabricated electrochemical biosensor. TTs assisted multiple tandem hairpins assembly for ultra-sensitive detection of target DNA.![]()

Development of Flow Cytometric Assay for Detecting Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Related hsa-miR-146b-5p through Toehold-Mediated Strand Displacement Reaction on Magnetic Beads. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26061628. [PMID: 33804111 PMCID: PMC7998802 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26061628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2021] [Accepted: 03/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
In this work, a simple enzyme-free flow cytometric assay (termed as TSDR-based flow cytometric assay) has been developed for the detection of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC)-related microRNA (miRNA), hsa-miR-146b-5p with high performance through the toehold-mediated strand displacement reaction (TSDR) on magnetic beads (MBs). The complementary single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) probe of hsa-miR-146b-5p was first immobilized on the surface of MB, which can partly hybridize with the carboxy-fluorescein (FAM)-modified ssDNA, resulting in strong fluorescence emission. In the presence of hsa-miR-146b-5p, the TSDR is trigged, and the FAM-modified ssDNA is released form the MB surface due to the formation of DNA/RNA heteroduplexes on the MB surface. The fluorescence emission change of MBs can be easily read by flow cytometry and is strongly dependent on the concentration of hsa-miR-146b-5p. Under optimal conditions, the TSDR-based flow cytometric assay exhibits good specificity, a wide linear range from 5 to 5000 pM and a relatively low detection limit (LOD, 3σ) of 4.21 pM. Moreover, the practicability of the assay was demonstrated by the analysis of hsa-miR-146b-5p amounts in different PTC cells and clinical PTC tissues.

Abstract
Simple, sensitive and specific detection of the transcription level of BCR-ABL1 mRNA possesses vital clinical significance in diagnosis and treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In this study, an innovative fluorescence biosensing methodology has been developed for sensitive and specific detection of BCR-ABL1 mRNA by integrating high-efficiency of exponential transcription and superior catalytic performance of DNA-grafted hemin. Exponential transcription was triggered by BCR-ABL1 mRNA to produce plenty of RNA products. They can specifically hybridize with circular dual-labeled hemin (DLH) probe to dissociate the intramolecular hemin dimmers into highly active hemin monomers for catalyzing fluorescence substrate tyramine. This exponential transcription-triggered hemin catalysis (ET-HC) strategy showed highly sensitive and specific for BCR-ABL1 detection with a limit of detection at 0.5 aM and a good linear range from 2 aM to 200 fM. This method was successfully applied to directly detect as low as 0.001% e13a2 transcript isoforms from complex genomic RNA extraction. Compared with clinical routine, the overall process is a thermostatic reaction and eliminates additional reverse transcription operation. Therefore, the developed ET-HC strategy might provide a promising alternative tool for precise diagnosis and personalized treatment of CML.

Abstract
Genetically Modified (GM) foods are becoming the future of agriculture on surviving global natural disasters and climate change by their enhanced production efficiency and improved functional properties. On the other hand, their adverse health and environmental effects, ample evidence on transgene leakage of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) to crops have raised questions on their benefits and risks. Consequently, low-cost, reliable, rapid, and practical detection of GMOs have been important. GMO-detection platforms should be capable of stably storing detection reagents for long-delivery distances with varying ambient temperatures. In this study, we developed an event-specific, closed tube colorimetric GMO detection method based on Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) technique which can be integrated into GMO-detection platforms. The entire detection process optimized to 30 min and isothermally at 65 °C. The durability of the LAMP mixture in the test tubes showed that the LAMP reaction mixture, in which Bst polymerase and DNA sample was later included, yielded DNA amplicons for 3 days at room temperature, and for 6 days at 4 °C.•Simple, stable, and cheap storage method of LAMP reaction mixture for GMO-detection technologies.•GMO-detection platforms can stably store detection reagents for long-delivery distances with varying ambient temperatures.•Any DNA sample can be used in the field or resource-limited setting by untrained personnel.

Abstract
Clinical tumor dormancy is specified as an extended latency period between removal of the primary tumor and subsequent relapse in a cancer patient who has been clinically disease-free. In particular, patients with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer can undergo extended periods of more than five years before they relapse with overt metastatic disease. Recent studies have shown that minimal residual disease in breast cancer patients can be monitored by different liquid biopsy approaches like analysis of circulating tumor cells or cell-free tumor DNA. Even though the biological principles underlying tumor dormancy in breast cancer patients remain largely unknown, clinical observations and experimental studies have identified emerging mechanisms that control the state of tumor dormancy. In this review, we illustrate the latest discoveries on different molecular aspects that contribute to the control of tumor dormancy and distant metastatic relapse, then discuss current treatments affecting minimal residual disease and dormant cancer cells, and finally highlight how novel liquid biopsy based diagnostic methodologies can be integrated into the detection and molecular characterization of minimal residual disease.

Abstract
We herein describe a novel technology, termed self-priming phosphorothioated hairpin-mediated isothermal amplification (SP-HAMP), enabling target nucleic acid detection. Isothermal amplification strategies are a simple process that efficiently raises the amount of nucleic acid at a constant temperature, but still has lots of problems such as the requirement of multiple exogenous primers and enzymes, which trigger non-specific background signal and increase the complexity of procedures. The key component for overcoming the above-mentioned limitations is the designed hairpin probe (HP) consisting of self-priming region along the 3' stem and the 3' overhang and phosphorothioate modifications at the 5' overhang and the specific loop part. The HP was designed to open through binding to target nucleic acid. Upon opening of HP, its self-priming (SP) region is rearranged to form a smaller hairpin whose 3' end could serve as a primer. The following extension produces the extended HP and displaces the bound target nucleic acid, which is then recycled to open another HP. Due to the reduced stability caused by the specific two phosphorothioate (PS) modifications, the 3' end of EP1 is readily rearranged to form the foldback hairpin structure, which would promote the foldback extension to produce once more extended HP. Since the two PS modifications are always located at the same positions along the 5' stem within the further extended HPs, the foldback reaction followed by the extension would be continuously repeated, consequently producing a large number of the long hairpin concatamers. Based on this unique design principle, we successfully detected even a single copy of target DNA with outstanding discrimination capability under an isothermal condition by employing only a single HP without the requirement for the complicated multiple primers. In conclusion, the sophisticated design principle employed in this work would provide great insight for the development of self-operative isothermal amplifying system enabling short target nucleic acid detection such as microRNAs or any target which is less than 200 mer.

Abstract
Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is an efficient enzymatic isothermal reaction that using circular probe as a template to generate long tandem single-stranded DNA or RNA products under the initiation of short DNA or RNA primers. As a simplified derivative of natural rolling circle replication which synthesizes copies of circular nucleic acids molecules such as plasmids, RCA amplifies the circular template rapidly without thermal cycling and finds various applications in molecular biology. Compared with other amplification strategies, RCA has many obvious advantages. Firstly, because of the strict complementarity required in ligation of a padlock probe, it endows the RCA reaction with high specificity and can even be utilized to distinguish single base mismatches. Secondly, through the introduction of multiple primers, exponential amplification can be achieved easily and leads to a good sensitivity. Thirdly, RCA products can be customized by manipulating circular templates to generate functional nucleic acids such as aptamer, DNAzymes and restriction enzyme sites. Moreover, the RCA has good biocompatibility and is especially suitable for in situ detection. Therefore, RCA has attracted considerable attention as an efficient and potential tool for highly sensitive detection of biomarkers. Herein, we comprehensively introduce the fundamental principles of RCA technology, summarize it from three aspects including initiation mode, amplification mode and signal output mode, and discuss the recent application of RCA-based biosensor in this review.

Abstract
MicroRNA (miRNA) has emerged as a promising genetic marker for cancer diagnosis and therapy because its expression level is closely related to the progression of malignant diseases. Herein, a label-free and selective fluorescence platform was proposed for miRNA based on light-up "G-quadruplex nanostring" via duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) mediated tandem rolling circle amplification (RCA). First, a long DNA generated from upstream RCA was designed with the antisense sequences for miR-21 and downstream RCA primer. Upon recognizing miR-21, the resulting DNA-RNA permitted DSN digestion and triggered downstream two-way RCA, and generation of abundant "G-quadruplex nanostring" binding with ZnPPIX for label-free fluorescent responses. In our strategy, the strong preference of DSN for perfectly matched DNA/RNA ensures its excellent selectivity. The developed method generated wide linear response with LOD of 1.019 fM. Additionally, the miR-21 levels in cell extracts have been evaluated, revealing the utility of this tool for biomedical research and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) has been widely investigated as important biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Herein, a highly sensitive nonenzymatic electrochemical biosensor based on Pd@metal-organic frameworks (Pd@UiO-66) and target-catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) with target recycling approach has been proposed for the detection of miR-21. The proposed biosensor integrates the efficient CHA strategy and excellent electrocatalytic performance of Pd@UiO-66 nanocomposites. The concentration of miRNA-21 is related to the amount of the adsorbed electrocatalyst, leading to the different electrochemical signals for readout towards paracetamol (AP). This biosensor shows a low limit of detection of 0.713 fM with the dynamic range of 20 fM -600 pM under the optimal experimental conditions, providing a powerful platform for detecting miR-21. Furthermore, the designed biochemical self-assembly strategy of this electrochemical biosensor is promising candidate for potential applications in the analysis of other important genetic biomarkers for early diagnosis of cancers.

Abstract
Since late December 2019, the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19; previously known as 2019-nCoV) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been surging rapidly around the world. With more than 1,700,000 confirmed cases, the world faces an unprecedented economic, social, and health impact. The early, rapid, sensitive, and accurate diagnosis of viral infection provides rapid responses for public health surveillance, prevention, and control of contagious diffusion. More than 30% of the confirmed cases are asymptomatic, and the high false-negative rate (FNR) of a single assay requires the development of novel diagnostic techniques, combinative approaches, sampling from different locations, and consecutive detection. The recurrence of discharged patients indicates the need for long-term monitoring and tracking. Diagnostic and therapeutic methods are evolving with a deeper understanding of virus pathology and the potential for relapse. In this Review, a comprehensive summary and comparison of different SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic methods are provided for researchers and clinicians to develop appropriate strategies for the timely and effective detection of SARS-CoV-2. The survey of current biosensors and diagnostic devices for viral nucleic acids, proteins, and particles and chest tomography will provide insight into the development of novel perspective techniques for the diagnosis of COVID-19.

A universal assay strategy for sensitive and simultaneous quantitation of multiplex tumor markers based on the stirring rod-immobilized DNA-LaMnO 3 perovskite-metal ions encoded probes. Talanta 2020; 222:121456.

Abstract
It was extremely urgent to develop some simultaneous and sensitive biosensors for detecting multiplex serum tumor markers (TMs) for early screening of cancers. Herein, a multiplex assay was developed based on the DNA-LaMnO3 (DNA-LMO) perovskite encoded probes and targets mediated competitive replacement strategy. Alpha fetoprotein (AFP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and prostate specific antigen (PSA) markers were employed as representative target TMs. Aptasensor is prepared by a series of DNA-LMO-M encode probes which were prepared by three hyperbranched DNA firstly immobilized on LMO encapsulating Pb, Cd or Cu ions. Then, three TMs aptamers were labeled on the stirring-rod and hybridized with the probes. After the developed encoded probes was incubated the TMs, the encoded probes corresponding to different TMs can be released into the supernatant through the competitive replacement. The inner metal ion can be simultaneously detected by square wave voltammetry corresponding to various TMs. Since the stirring rod can enrich many encoded probes containing a lot of metal ions, multiplex signal amplification can be realized. Due to the enrichment and easy separation of the stirring rod, the signal-to-noise ratio was also obviously improved and thus to results in good sensitivity and accuracy. Moreover, it took only 20 min to detect three targets which much faster than many same types of aptasensor. Under the optimal conditions, the low detection limit for CEA (3.6 × 10-4 ng/mL), AFP (3.4 × 10-4 ng/mL) and PSA (2.8 × 10-4 ng/mL) were obtained. Therefore, this method is likely to be used for early and sensitive screening of tumors.

Abstract
With the rapid development of isothermal amplification technology, DNA molecular diagnosis has become an important reference for clinical treatment. In this work, we have designed a DNA molecular diagnostic technology with LAMP-like sensitivity for nucleic acid analysis and detection based on only one pair of hairpin primers. This DNA molecular diagnostic technology consists of Bst DNA polymerase and one pair of hairpin primers, which are designed easily by adding a stem-loop structure to a target binding domain. When the target is present, the polymerization reaction between the hairpin primers and the target generates a specific dumbbell DNA similar to LAMP, which triggers cyclic amplification reactions to extend a series of long dsDNA products with repeated sequences by inserting fluorescent dye Eva Green observed the increase in fluorescence signal. In our method, using the hairpin primers-mediated isothermal polymerization amplification, we can specifically monitor 3-5 copies of the target nucleic acid in the system without labeling and temperature cycling in the reaction. In addition, serum samples from 13 patients with suspected schistosomiasis were targeted; we further demonstrated the ability of the technology to detect complex clinic samples, and its potentially inestimable applicability in clinic early molecular diagnostic research.

Abstract
Developing a sensitive, low-cost and general sensing platform for the analysis of a DNA biomarker and its mutation is important for early cancer screening. In our work, the tumor suppressor gene-p53 DNA was chosen as the model DNA biomarker due to its vital role in preventing oncogene cancer-inhibiting activity through mediating cellular proliferation and apoptosis. Compared with tumor biopsy, the quantification of p53 DNA and its mutation in biofluids (such as urine) is more convenient due to its simple operation and non-invasiveness. Herein, a label-free amplified fluorescence assay has been developed for p53 DNA in urine samples through the KFP polymerase-driven double strand displacement reactions and a magnetic nanoprobe. First, the ssDNA probe (RP) was designed with antisense sequences for p53 DNA and the Nb.BbvCI endonuclease recognition site. In the presence of p53 DNA, the formed dsDNA between RP and p53 DNA served as an engaging primer to initiate the first strand displacement reaction (SDA) under the action of KFP DNA polymerase and Nb.BbvCI, generating abundant short ssDNA (primer). Subsequently, the resulting primers will initiate the downstream SDA through the primer-hairpin DNA (HPa) binding, opening up, and extension of HPb and HPc under the action of KFP DNA polymerase. In the process of this final DNA polymerization reaction, the primer hybridized on HPa is released and goes on to initiate another round, forming plenty of duplex Y-shaped DNA. With the integration of SYBR Green I (SG I) into these duplex DNA, the amplified label-free fluorescence detection platform for p53 DNA can be achieved. Moreover, a biotin modified nanoprobe (bio-CP) was used to capture the superfluous HP. By performing the separation function, the binding of superfluous HP and SG could be avoided and a low background can be acquired. Benefiting from the abundant SG intercalation sites of Y-shaped DNA and low background signals, this method showed excellent sensitivity with a detection limit of 0.012 nM, and the p53 DNA in urine samples was evaluated, offering a powerful tool for biomedical research and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
A novel reverse transcription-based loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) strategy for miRNA detection has been developed. This method consists of two stem-loop probes inspired by the dumbbell-shaped amplicons and inner primers used in conventional LAMP reactions. Termed "terminal hairpin formation and self-priming" (THSP), this reaction incorporates phosphorothioated (PS) modifications to achieve DNA folding and extension without primers. The final signal is monitored by a sequence-specific detection probe, which minimizes the background noise. We suggest that our rapid, facile, and reliable LAMP method will be a promising candidate for detecting miRNA in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most serious threats to human where 85% of lethal death caused by non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) induced by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. The present research focuses in the development of efficient and effortless EGFR mutant detection strategy through high-performance and sensitive genosensor. The current amplified through 250 µm sized fingers between 100 µm aluminium electrodes indicates the voltammetry signal generated by means of the mutant DNA sequence hybridization. To enhance the DNA immobilization and hybridization, ∼25 nm sized aluminosilicate nanocomposite synthesized from the disposed joss fly ash was deposited on the gaps between aluminium electrodes. The probe, mutant (complementary), and wild (single-base pair mismatch) targets were designed precisely from the genomic sequences denote the detection of EGFR mutation. Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy analysis was performed at every step of surface functionalization evidences the relevant chemical bonding of biomolecules on the genosensor as duplex DNA with peak response at 1150 cm−1 to 1650 cm−1. Genosensor depicts a sensitive EGFR mutation as it is able to detect apparently at 100 aM mutant against 1 µM DNA probe. The insignificant voltammetry signal generated with wild type strand emphasizes the specificity of genosensor in the detection of single base pair mismatch. The inefficiency of genosensor in detecting EGFR mutation in the absence of aluminosilicate nanocomposite implies the insensitivity of genosensing DNA hybridization and accentuates the significance of aluminosilicate. Based on the slope of the calibration curve, the attained sensitivity of aluminosilicate modified genosensor was 3.02E-4 A M−1. The detection limit of genosensor computed based on 3σ calculation, relative to the change of current proportional to the logarithm of mutant concentration is at 100 aM.

Abstract
Isothermal DNA amplification only using a Bacillus stearothermophilus (Bst) DNA polymerase such as loop-mediated isothermal amplification typically entails multiple target sites for primer design and is thereby not suited for the amplification of short gene sequences, for example, the sequences with size below 200 nucleotides (nt). Here we present SLIMP, a novel single enzyme-based isothermal amplification of short gene sequence mediated by both stem-loop and linear primers. In SLIMP, a pair of stem-loop primers and a pair of linear primers are specifically designed to recognize only two target sites. Linear primers in SLIMP are similar as conventional PCR primers, but stem-loop primers are the modified linear primers through attaching a stem-loop structure at their 5'-ends. Attributed to this unique primer design, three basic reaction modes including linear-priming, single stem-loop-priming, and double stem-loop-priming amplifications co-mediate the SLIMP process under the function of Bst DNA polymerase. As a proof-of-concept assay, a synthetic 80 nt sequence from hepatitis B virus S gene was used as the template to develop SLIMP. On performance, SLIMP detection possesses high sensitivity and specificity, good selectivity, and the potential for analysing real sample. Therefore, SLIMP is expected as a novel alternative to amplify short gene sequences using a single enzyme.

Abstract
A simple microRNA (miRNA) aptasensor has been developed combining the conformational switch of a streptavidin aptamer and isothermal strand displacement amplification. In the presence of its target miRNA, the allosteric molecular beacon (aMB) probe immobilized on the plate can be 'switched on' and release the streptavidin aptamer. At the same time, Klenow fragment (3'→5' exo-) is utilized to initiate DNA-strand displacement, which starts the target recycling process. Based on the aptamer' high binding affinity and subsequent catalytic chemiluminescence (CL) detection, this CL strategy is highly specific in distinguishing mature miRNAs in same family. It exhibits a dynamic range of four orders of magnitude with a detection limit of 50 fM, and shows great potential for miRNA-related clinical practices and biochemical research.

Abstract
Over the decades, the biological role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression has been discovered in many cancer types, thus initiating the tremendous expectation of their application as biomarkers in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cancer. Hence, the development of efficient miRNA detection methods in vitro is in high demand. Extensive efforts have been made based on the intrinsic properties of miRNAs, such as low expression levels, high sequence homology, and short length, to develop novel in vitro miRNA detection methods with high accuracy, low cost, practicality, and multiplexity at point-of-care settings. In this review, we mainly summarized the newly developed in vitro miRNA detection methods classified by three key elements, including biological recognition elements, additional micro-/nano-materials and signal transduction/readout elements, their current challenges and further applications are also discussed.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of endogenous, small (approximately 22 nucleotides in length), noncoding, functional RNAs. With the development of molecular biology, the research of miRNA biological function has attracted significant interest, as abnormal miRNA expression is identified to contribute to serious human diseases such as cancers. Traditional methods for miRNA detection do not meet current demands. In particular, nanomaterial-based methods, nucleic acid amplification-based methods such as rolling circle amplification (RCA), loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), strand-displacement amplification (SDA) and some enzyme-free amplifications have been employed widely for the highly sensitive detection of miRNA. MiRNA functional research and clinical diagnostics have been accelerated by these new techniques. Herein, we summarize and discuss the recent progress in the development of miRNA detection methods and new applications. This review will provide guidelines for the development of follow-up miRNA detection methods with high sensitivity and specificity, and applicability to disease diagnosis and therapy.
