Abstract
Sensitive and specific assay of microRNAs (miRNAs) is beneficial to early disease screening. Herein, we for the first time proposed clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas13a-mediated photoelectrochemical biosensors for the direct assay of miRNA-21. In this study, compared with traditional nucleic acid-based signal amplification strategies, the CRISPR/Cas13a system can greatly improve the specificity and sensitivity of target determination due to its accurate recognition and high-efficient trans-cleavage capability without complex nucleic acid sequence design. Moreover, compared with the CRISPR/Cas12a-based biosensing platform, the developed CRISPR/Cas13a-mediated biosensor can directly detect RNA targets without signal transduction from RNA to DNA, thereby avoiding signal leakage and distortion. Generally, the proposed biosensor reveals excellent analysis capability with a wider linear range from 1 fM to 5 nM and a lower detection limit of 1 fM. Additionally, it also shows satisfactory stability in the detection of human serum samples and cell lysates, manifesting that it has great application prospects in the areas of early disease diagnosis and biomedical research.

Abstract
Enzyme-free DNA strand displacement process is often practical when detecting miRNAs expressed at low levels in living cells. However, the poor kinetics, tedious reaction period, and multicomponent system hamper its in vivo applications to a great extent. Herein, we design a branch-shaped trapping device (BTD)-based spatial confinement reactor and applied it for accelerated miRNA in situ imaging. The reactor consists of a pair of trapped probe-based catalyzed hairpin assembly (T-CHA) reactions attached around the BTD. The trapping device naturally offered CHA reactions a good spatial-confinement effect by integrating the metastable probes (MHPa and MHPb) of the traditional CHA with the four-branched arm of BTD, which greatly improved the localized concentration of probes and shortened their physical distance. The autonomous and progressive walk of miRNA on the four-arm nanoprobes via T-CHA can rapidly tie numerous four-arm nanoprobes into figure-of-eight nanoknots (FENs), yielding strong fluorescence that is proportional to the miRNA expression level. The unique nanoarchitecture of the FEN also benefits the restricted freedom of movement (FOM) in a confined cellular environment, which makes the system ideally suitable for in situ imaging of intracellular miRNAs. In vitro and in situ analyses also demonstrated that the T-CHA overall outperformed the dissociative probe-based CHA (D-CHA) in stability, reaction speed, and amplification sensitivity. The final application of the T-CHA-based four-arm nanoprobe for imagings of both cancer cells and normal cells shows the potential of the platform for accurately and timely revealing miRNA in biological systems.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, affecting the elderly worldwide and causing significant movement impairments. The goal of PD treatment is to restore dopamine levels in the striatum and regulate movement symptoms. The lack of specific biomarkers for early diagnosis, as well as medication aimed at addressing the pathogenic mechanisms to decelerate the progression of dopaminergic neurodegeneration, are key roadblocks in the management of PD. Various pathogenic processes have been identified to be involved in the progression of PD, with mitochondrial dysfunction being a major contributor to the disease's pathogenesis. The regulation of mitochondrial functions is influenced by a variety of factors, including epigenetics. microRNAs (miRNAs) are epigenetic modulators involved in the regulation of gene expression and regulate a variety of proteins that essential for proper mitochondrial functioning. They are found to be dysregulated in PD, as evidenced by biological samples from PD patients and in vitro and in vivo research. In this article, we attempt to provide an overview of several miRNAs linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and their potential as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in PD.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules regulating gene expression with diagnostic potential in different diseases, including epithelial ovarian carcinomas (EOC). As only a few studies have been published on the identification of stable endogenous miRNA in EOC, there is no consensus which miRNAs should be used aiming standardization. Currently, U6-snRNA is widely adopted as a normalization control in RT-qPCR when investigating miRNAs in EOC; despite its variable expression across cancers being reported. Therefore, our goal was to compare different missing data and normalization approaches to investigate their impact on the choice of stable endogenous controls and subsequent survival analysis while performing expression analysis of miRNAs by RT-qPCR in most frequent subtype of EOC: high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). 40 miRNAs were included based on their potential as stable endogenous controls or as biomarkers in EOC. Following RNA extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues from 63 HGSC patients, RT-qPCR was performed with a custom panel covering 40 target miRNAs and 8 controls. The raw data was analyzed by applying various strategies regarding choosing stable endogenous controls (geNorm, BestKeeper, NormFinder, the comparative ΔCt method and RefFinder), missing data (single/multiple imputation), and normalization (endogenous miRNA controls, U6-snRNA or global mean). Based on our study, we propose hsa-miR-23a-3p and hsa-miR-193a-5p, but not U6-snRNA as endogenous controls in HGSC patients. Our findings are validated in two external cohorts retrieved from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus database. We present that the outcome of stability analysis depends on the histological composition of the cohort, and it might suggest unique pattern of miRNA stability profiles for each subtype of EOC. Moreover, our data demonstrates the challenge of miRNA data analysis by presenting various outcomes from normalization and missing data imputation strategies on survival analysis.

Abstract
Quantification of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) or viral RNAs is of great significance because of their broad relevance to human health. Currently, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), as well as microarray and gene sequencing, are considered mainstream techniques for miRNA identification and quantitation and the gold standard for SARS-CoV2 detection in the COVID-19 pandemic. However, these laboratory techniques are challenged by the low levels and wide dynamic range (from aM to nM) of miRNAs in a physiological sample, as well as the difficulty in the implementation in point-of-care settings. Here, we describe a one-step label-free electrochemical sensing technique by assembling self-folded multi-stem DNA-redox probe structure on gold microelectrodes and introducing a reductant, tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine hydrochloride (TCEP), in the detection buffer solution to achieve ultrasensitive detection with a detection limit of 0.1 fM that can be further improved if needed.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can facilitate essential communication among cells in a range of pathophysiological conditions including cancer metastasis and progression, immune regulation, and neuronal communication. EVs are membrane-enclosed vesicles generated through endocytic origin and contain many cellular components, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and metabolites. Over the past few years, the intravesicular content of EVs has proven to be a valuable biomarker for disease diagnostics, involving cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and central nervous system diseases. This review aims to provide insight into EV biogenesis, composition, function, and isolation, present a comprehensive overview of emerging techniques for EV cargo analysis, highlighting their major technical features and limitations, and summarize the potential role of EV cargos as biomarkers in disease diagnostics. Further, progress and remaining challenges will be discussed for clinical diagnostic outlooks.

Abstract
Here, a method using SplintR ligase-mediated ligation of complementary-pairing probes enhanced by RNase H (SPLICER) for miRNAs quantification was established. The strategy has two steps: (1) ligation of two DNA probes specifically hybridize to target miRNA and (2) qPCR amplifying the ligated probe. The miRNA-binding regions of the probes are stem-looped, a motif significantly reduces nonspecific ligation at high ligation temperature (65°C). The ends of the probes are designed complementary to form a paired probe, facilitating the recognition of target miRNAs with low concentrations. RNase H proved to be able to stabilize the heteroduplex formed by the probe and target miRNA, contributing to enhanced sensitivity (limit of detection = 60 copies). High specificity (discriminating homology miRNAs differing only one nucleotide), wide dynamic range (seven orders of magnitude) and ability to accurately detect plant miRNAs (immune to hindrance of 2'-O-methyl moiety) enable SPLICER comparable with the commercially available TaqMan and miRCURY assays. SYBR green I, rather than expensive hydrolysis or locked nucleic acid probes indispensable to TaqMan and miRCURY assays, is adequate for SPLICER. The method was efficient (<1 h), economical ($7 per sample), and robust (able to detect xeno-miRNAs in mammalian bodies), making it a powerful tool for molecular diagnosis and corresponding therapy.

Abstract
Simultaneous detection of multiple miRNAs of one disease can greatly reduce misdiagnosis and improve the detection rate, which is helpful for early cancer diagnosis. Here, a programmable microparticle-array-based acoustic microchip for in situ simultaneous multiple miRNAs detection is developed. On this microchip, the multiple probes-labeled microparticle array can be procedurally arranged in a microfluidic reaction chamber when four orthogonally piezoelectric transducers are applied. The probes-labeled microparticle array offers a platform for full molecular contact under dynamic ultrasonic streaming, and the array supplies a multipoint data correction to reduce the false positive of the detection results for more precisely visible fluorescence multiple target miRNAs sensing. We employed miRNA-21, miRNA-210, and miRNA-155 as specific biomarkers of pancreatic cancer and successfully finished the multiple miRNAs simultaneous detection in the microchip with a detection limit of 139.1, 179.9, and 111.4 pM, respectively. Such a device is programmable by adjusting the imputing frequency and voltage, and target biomarkers can be easily collected when the ultrasound force is released for further analysis, which shows great potential in multiple miRNAs enrichment and simultaneous detection for cancer clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
The real-time imaging of low-abundance tumor-related microRNAs (miRNAs) in living cells holds great potential for early clinical diagnosis of cancers. However, the relatively low detection sensitivity and possible false-positive signals of a probe in complex cellular matrices remain critical challenges for accurate RNA detection. Herein, we developed a novel aptamer-functionalized cruciate DNA probe that enabled amplified multiple miRNA imaging in living cells via catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA). The cross-shaped design of the cruciate DNA probe improved the stability against nucleases and acted as a modular scaffold for CHA circuits for efficient delivery into tumor cells. The cruciate DNA probe allowed self-assembly through thermal annealing and displayed excellent performance for sensitive miRNA detection in vitro. The cruciate DNA probe could be internalized into nucleolin-overexpressed cells specifically via cell-targeting of the AS1411 aptamer, achieving amplified fluorescence imaging and quantitative evaluation of the expression of miRNAs in living cells. Through the simultaneous detection of intracellular multiple miRNAs, the developed cruciate DNA probe could provide more accurate information and reduce the chances of false positive signals for cancer diagnosis. This approach offers a new opportunity for promoting the development of miRNA-related biomedical research and tumor diagnostic applications.

Abstract
High sensitivity and specificity imaging of miRNA in living cells plays an important role in understanding miRNA-related regulation and pathological research. Localized DNA circuits have shown good performance in reaction rate and sensitivity and have been proposed for sensitive imaging of miRNA in living cells. However, most reported localized DNA circuits have a high risk of derailment or a limited loading rate capacity, which hinder their further application. To solve these issues, we herein developed a domino-like localized cascade toehold assembly (LCTA) amplification-based DNA nanowire to achieve highly sensitive and highly specific imaging of miRNAs in living cells by using DNA nanowires as reactant delivery vehicles and confining both reactant probes in a compact space. The LCTA is constructed by interval hybridization of DNA double-stranded probe pairs to a DNA nanowire with multiplex footholds generated by alternating chain hybridization. Due to the localized effect, the LCTA showed high reaction kinetics and sensitivity, and the method could detect miRNAs as low as 51 pM. The LCTA was proven to be able to accurately distinguish the miRNA expression difference between normal cells and cancer cells. In particular, the developed LCTA could be used to construct an OR logic gate to simultaneously image the total amount of multiple miRNAs in living cells. We believe that the developed LCTA can be an effective intracellular nucleic acid imaging tool and can promote the development of nucleic acid-related clinical disease diagnosis and DNA logical sensors.

Abstract
In recent decades, interest in circulating tumour biomarkers is increasing both in human and veterinary oncology. An ideal tumour biomarker would allow early diagnosis of neoplasia, identify it specifically, accurately, establish a prognosis and predict its behaviour, especially regarding different therapeutic solutions. It would also allow to monitor its evolution over time and all this in a non-invasive and inexpensive way. Actually, no biomarkers meeting all of these criteria have been identified in veterinary medicine, particularly due to a lack of specificity of the main protein tumour biomarkers studied to date. However, great hope is currently placed in biomarkers grouped under the name of liquid biopsy, which could prove to be effective tools for common clinical use in the near future. This review gives an update on blood cancer biomarkers studied in dogs, such as ions, proteins, nucleic acids and also circulating cells, of which some might become more prominent in the coming years to help improve the management of animal care.

Abstract
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) have been recognized as important regulators that are indispensable for testicular development and spermatogenesis. miRNAs are endogenous transcriptomic elements and mainly regulate the gene expression at post-transcriptional levels; however, the key role of miRNA in bovine testicular growth is not clearly understood. Thus, supposing to unveil the transcriptomics expression changes in the developmental processes of bovine testes, we selected three immature calves and three sexually mature bulls of the local Wandong breed for testicular-tissue sample collection. The cDNA libraries of experimental animals were established for RNA-sequencing analysis. We detected the miRNA expression in testes by using high-throughput sequencing technology, and bioinformatics analysis followed. The differentially expressed (DE) data showed that 151 miRNAs linked genes were significantly DE between immature and mature bull testes. Further, in detail, 64 were significantly up-regulated and 87 were down-regulated in the immature vs. mature testes (p-value < 0.05). Pathway analyses for miRNA-linked genes were performed and identified JAG2, BCL6, CFAP157, PHC2, TYRO3, SEPTIN6, and BSP3; these genes were involved in biological pathways such as TNF signaling, T cell receptor, PI3KAkt signaling, and functions affecting testes development and spermatogenesis. The DE miRNAs including MIR425, MIR98, MIR34C, MIR184, MIR18A, MIR136, MIR15A, MIR1388 and MIR210 were associated with cattle-bull sexual maturation and sperm production. RT-qPCR validation analysis showed a consistent correlation to the sequencing data findings. The current study provides a good framework for understanding the mechanism of miRNAs in the development of testes and spermatogenesis.

Abstract
Author: Please verify that the changes made to improve the English still retain your original meaning.Detection of microRNA (miRNA) in dermal interstitial fluid (ISF) has emerged as clinically useful in health status monitoring. However, it remains a great challenge owing to the difficult sampling and low abundance. Here, we report a DNA hydrogel microneedles (MNs) array to realize rapid enrichment and sensitive detection of miRNA in ISF. The MNs' patch consists of methacrylate hyaluronic acid (MeHA) equipped with a smart DNA circuit hydrogels' system (MeHA/DNA), in which an appropriate miRNA input enables triggering a cascading toehold-mediated DNA displacement reaction to catalytically cleave cross-linking points to generate amplified fluorescence (FL) for miRNA detection. The MeHA/DNA-MNs patch with high mechanical strength can extract adequate ISF in a short time (0.97 ± 0.2 mg in 5 min) in vivo because of its supreme water affinity. Additionally, the cascading toehold-mediated DNA displacement signal amplification reaction allows for sensitive detection of the low-abundant miRNAs down to 241.56 pM. The DNA hydrogels' MNs present potential for minimally invasive personalized diagnosis and real-time health monitoring in clinical applications.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most common subtype of hemorrhagic stroke. After ICH, blood components extravasate from vessels into the brain, activating immune cells and causing them to release a series of inflammatory mediators. Immune cells, together with inflammatory mediators, lead to neuroinflammation in the perihematomal region and the whole brain, and neuroinflammation is closely related to secondary brain injury as well as functional recovery of the brain. Despite recent progress in understanding the pathophysiology of ICH, there is still no effective treatment for this disease. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs 17-25 nucleotides in length that are generated naturally in the human body. They bind complementarily to messenger RNAs and suppress translation, thus regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. They have been found to regulate the pathophysiological process of ICH, particularly the neuroinflammatory cascade. Multiple preclinical studies have shown that manipulating the expression and activity of miRNAs can modulate immune cell activities, influence neuroinflammatory responses, and ultimately affect neurological functions after ICH. This implicates the potentially crucial roles of miRNAs in post-ICH neuroinflammation and indicates the possibility of applying miRNA-based therapeutics for this disease. Thus, this review aims to address the pathophysiological roles and molecular underpinnings of miRNAs in the regulation of neuroinflammation after ICH. With a more sophisticated understanding of ICH and miRNAs, it is possible to translate these findings into new pharmacological therapies for ICH.

Abstract
Visualizing intracellular microRNA (miRNA) is of great importance for revealing its roles in the development of disease. However, cell membrane barrier, complex intracellular environment and low abundance of target miRNA are three main challenges for efficient imaging of intracellular miRNA. Here, we report a size-controllable and self-assembled DNA nanosphere with ATP-fueled dissociation property for amplified miRNA imaging in live cells and mice. The DNA nanosphere was self-assembled from Y-shaped DNA (Y-DNA) monomers through predesigned base pair hybridization, and the size could be easily controlled by varying the concentration of Y-DNA. Once the nanosphere was internalized into cells, the intracellular specific target miRNA would trigger the cyclic dissociation of the DNA nanosphere driven by ATP, resulting in amplified FRET signal. The programmable DNA nanosphere has been proven to work well for detecting the expression of miRNA in cancer cells and in mice, which demonstrates its fairish cell penetration, stability and sensitivity.

Abstract
Gout is a common form of arthritis caused by the deposition of sodium urate crystals in the joints and tissues around them. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding RNAs that have been shown to be involved in regulating the pathogenesis of gout through multiple cellular signaling pathways, which may be potential targets for the treatment of gout. In this review, we systematically discuss the regulatory roles of related miRNAs in gout, which will provide help for the treatment of gout and miRNAs is expected to become a potential biomarker for gout diagnosis.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important biomarkers that are closely associated with certain diseases. The detection of miRNA is critical because it provides the necessary information for Disease Diagnosis. In this study, we achieved miRNA determination by coupling the CRISPR-Cas (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-CRISPR-associated) system with strand displacement amplification (SDA). In the experiment, miRNA was used as the initiator of SDA, and the activator of Cas12a nuclease activity was amplified by SDA. Subsequently, the unique nuclease activity of Cas12a was exploited to carry out trans cleaving on the ssDNA reporting probe modified with carboxyfluorescein(FAM) and BHQ1(dark Quencher: 480-580 nm) to achieve a signal output. In addition to chain design and reaction simplification, this method is lofty sensitive and selective for the determination of miRNA with a good linear range of 250 fmol·L-1 ∼ 40 pmol·L-1, the detection limit of 150 fmol·L-1 (S/N = 3), and the method showed good recovery in spiked human serum. Overall, this method is expected to be applied to diagnosis with miRNA biomarkers because of its rapidity, high sensitivity, and high selectivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Curcumin exerts a protective effect on diabetic encephalopathy (DN), It is known for its potent neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. However, the underlying mechanisms of curcumin's neuroprotective effects resulting from high glucose (HG)-induced injuries remain unknown. The purpose of this study is to identify the protective mechanism of Curcumin in the DN. METHODS In this study, pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells) were pretreated with different concentrations of Curcumin and then co-treated with Curcumin and glucose for 48 hours, and the cell viability was evaluated by CCK-8, the expression of the inflammatory mediators were detected by ELISA, the miR-218-5p and toll-like receptors (TLR4) level were examined by both quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting, the potential target genes of miR-218-5p were identified using luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS The viability of PC12 cells treated with HG was significantly reduced in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Cotreatment of curcumin with HG significantly increased cell viability. Curcumin inhibited the expression of the inflammatory mediators, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6), and induced the expression of the anti-inflammatory mediator interleukin-10 (IL-10). Curcumin upregulated the levels of miR-218-5p and downregulated the expression of TLR4 in HG-treated PC12 cells. The curcumin-induced anti-inflammatory effect was abrogated by a miR-218-5p inhibitor and overexpression of TLR4. The results suggest that curcumin ameliorates the inflammatory response by upregulating miR-218-5p levels in PC12 cells. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate a protective role for curcumin in PC12 cells and suggest that it should be considered for the prophylactic treatment of DN in the future.

Abstract
Exosomes have a crucial role in intercellular communication and mediate interactions between tumor cells and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Exosome-encapsulated non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are involved in various physiological processes. Tumor-derived exosomal ncRNAs induce M2 macrophage polarization through signaling pathway activation, signal transduction, and transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation. Conversely, TAM-derived exosomal ncRNAs promote tumor proliferation, metastasis, angiogenesis, chemoresistance, and immunosuppression. MicroRNAs induce gene silencing by directly targeting mRNAs, whereas lncRNAs and circRNAs act as miRNA sponges to indirectly regulate protein expressions. The role of ncRNAs in tumor-host interactions is ubiquitous. Current research is increasingly focused on the tumor microenvironment. On the basis of the "cancer-immunity cycle" hypothesis, we discuss the effects of exosomal ncRNAs on immune cells to induce T cell exhaustion, overexpression of programmed cell death ligands, and create a tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Furthermore, we discuss potential applications and prospects of exosomal ncRNAs as clinical biomarkers and drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Background: Pathological and clinical features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are in temporal discrepancy and currently accepted clinical tests provide the diagnosis decades after the initial pathophysiological events. In order to enable a more timely detection of AD, research efforts are directed to identification of biomarkers of the early symptomatic stage. Neuroinflammatory signaling pathways and inflammation-related microRNAs (miRNAs) could possibly have a crucial role in AD, making them promising potential biomarkers. Objective: We examined the expression of circulatory miRNAs with a documented role in AD pathophysiology: miR-29a/b, miR-101, miR-125b, miR-146a, and miR-155 in the plasma of AD patients (AD, n = 12), people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI, n = 9), and normocognitive group (CTRL, n = 18). We hypothesized that these miRNA expression levels could correlate with the level of participants’ cognitive decline. Methods: The study participants completed the standardized interview, neurological examination, neuropsychological assessment, and biochemical analyses. miRNA expression levels were assessed by RT-PCR. Results: Neurological and laboratory findings could not account for MCI, but miR-146a and -155 were upregulated in the MCI group compared to the control. miR-146a, known to mediate early neuroinflammatory AD events, was also upregulated in the MCI compared to AD group. ROC curve analysis for miRNA-146a showed 77.8% sensitivity and 94.4% specificity and 66.7% sensitivity and 88.9% specificity for miR-155. Conclusion: Determination of circulatory inflamma-miRs-146a and -155 expression, together with neuropsychological screening, could become a non-invasive tool for detecting individuals with an increased risk for AD, but research on a larger cohort is warranted.

Abstract
Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) with elemental labeling is a promising strategy for multiplex microRNA (miRNA) analysis. However, it is still challenging for specific analysis of multiple miRNAs with high homology, and the development of multiplex assays is always limited by the complexity of the sequence design. Herein, a simple and direct ICP-MS-based assay was developed for the simultaneous detection of three miRNAs by combining the lanthanide labeling strategy with entropy-driven catalytic (EDC) amplification. Owing to the specificity of EDC for nucleic acid recognition, it is able to differentiate miRNAs with single-base mutation in each EDC circuit. A universal biotin-labeled DNA strand was designed to hybridize with the DNA substrates for three EDC circuits, targeting miRNA-21, miRNA-155, and miRNA-10b, respectively. All the substrates were loaded on the surface of streptavidin magnetic beads. In the presence of target miRNA, the EDC reaction was initiated, and EDC substrates were dissociated, continuously releasing reporter strands that were labeled with lanthanides (Tb/Ho/Lu). After magnetic separation, the supernatant containing the released reporter strands was introduced into an ICP-MS system for simultaneous detection of 159Tb/165Ho/175Lu and quantification of miRNA-21, miRNA-155, and miRNA-10b, respectively. The limits of detection were 7.4, 7.5, and 11 pmol L-1 for miRNA-21, miRNA-155, and miRNA-10b, respectively. Overall, this study provides a powerful strategy for simultaneous quantification of multiple miRNAs, with the advantages of flexible probe design, good sensitivity, and excellent specificity.

Abstract
microRNA (miRNA) is a kind of small non-coding RNA that has been regarded as potential biomarkers for cancers. Sensitive and specific detection of miRNA at low expression levels is highly desirable but remains challenging, especially for amplification-free and portable point of care (POC) diagnostics. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas13a has been recently discovered and used in the field of RNA detection. Nonetheless, most CRISPR/Cas13a-based methods were burdened with expensive equipment, time-consuming procedures, and complicated operations which were not suitable for POC analysis. In this work, we constructed a three-dimensional tetrahedral DNA framework based CRISPR-electrochemical biosensor (CRISPR-E). By combining tetrahedral DNA framework, CRISPR, and electrochemical biosensor, the process of activation, cleavage of Cas13a, and signal readout were all finished on the chip, and a simple, amplification-free and sensitive detection of miRNA-19b was realized. Under the optimal experimental conditions, a linear range from 10 pM to 104 pM with detection limit of 10 pM for miRNA-19b in buffer solution was achieved. Selectivity analysis indicated that our CRISPR-E had good distinguishing ability between miRNA-19b and miRNA-197. The results of miRNA-19b detection in mimic serum samples were consistent with that of the buffer solution. This all-on-chip strategy of our CRISPR-E is very suitable for POC testing.

Abstract
AIMS Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating neurological condition often associated with chronic neuroinflammation and redox imbalance. Oxidative stress is one of the main hallmark of secondary injury of SCI which is tightly regulated by nuclear factor E2-related factor 2/antioxidant response element (Nrf2/ARE) signaling. In this study, we aimed at investigating the interplay between inflammation-related miRNAs and the Nrf2 pathway in animal model of SCI. MATERIALS AND METHODS The expression of selected four validated miRNA-target pairs (miRNA223-3p, miRNA155-5p, miRNA145-5p, and miRNA124-3p) was examined at different time points (6 h, 12 h, 1 day, 3 day and 7 day) after SCI. Further, using GFAP-specific kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 deletion (Keap1-/-) and whole-body Nrf2-/- knockout mice, we investigated the potential interplay between each miRNA and the Keap1/Nrf2 signaling system. KEY FINDINGS The expression of all miRNAs except miRNA155-5p significantly increased 24 h after SCI and decreased after 7 days. Interestingly, Keap1-/- mice only showed significant increase in the miRNA145-5p after 24 h SCI compared to the WT group. In addition, Keap1-/- mice showed significant decrease in CXCL10/12 (CXCL12 increased in Nrf2-/- mice), and TNF-α, and an increase in Mn-SOD and NQO-1 (Mn-SOD and NQO-1 decreased in Nrf2-/- mice) compared to WT mice. SIGNIFICANCE Our results suggest that astrocytic hyperactivation of Nrf2 exert neuroprotective effects at least in part through the upregulation of miRNA145-5p, a negative regulator of astrocyte proliferation, and induction of ARE in early phase of SCI. Further studies are needed to investigate the potential interplay between Nrf2 and miRNA145-5p in neuroinflammatory condition.

Abstract
AIMS Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common chronic liver disease whose molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the role and mechanisms of microRNA-376b-3p in NAFLD. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used a microarray to reveal hepatic microRNA expression profiles and validated their expression in cellular and mouse models via qRT-PCR. In vitro, the expression of microRNA-376b-3p was increased by a microRNA-376b-3p mimic and decreased by a microRNA-376b-3p inhibitor. The role and potential mechanisms of microRNA-376b-3p in NAFLD were investigated in mice injected with lentiviral vectors before high-fat diet (HFD) feeding, and the direct target gene was explored using a dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and confirmed by Western blotting. KEY FINDINGS Microarray analysis and subsequent validation showed that the expression of microRNA-376b-3p was downregulated by nearly 90 % in the livers of HFD-fed mice and by >50 % in free fatty acid-stimulated hepatocytes. Overexpression of microRNA-376b-3p markedly ameliorated hepatic lipid accumulation, which was attributable to an increase in fatty acid oxidation. Conversely, inhibition of miR-376b-3p exhibited the opposite effects. The luciferase reporter assay indicated that Fgfr1 is a direct target gene of miR-376b-3p. Fgfr1 intervention eliminated the effect of miR-376b-3p on the lipid oxidation pathway and hepatocyte steatosis, which suggests that miR-376b-3p regulates fatty acid oxidation by targeting Fgfr1 to influence NAFLD development. SIGNIFICANCE miR-376b-3p was downregulated in NAFLD and has a novel regulatory role in lipid oxidation through a miR-376b-3p-Fgfr1-dependent mechanism. Thus, miR-376b-3p may serve as a potential diagnostic marker or therapeutic target for NAFLD.

Abstract
The sensitive analysis of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) holds promise for the minimally invasive early diagnosis of brain cancers such as pediatric medulloblastoma but remains challenging due partially to a lack of facile yet sensitive sensing methods. Herein, an enzyme-free triple-signal amplification electrochemical assay for miRNA was developed by integrating the target-triggered cyclic strand-displacement reaction (TCSDR), hybridization chain reaction (HCR), and methylene blue (MB) intercalation. In this assay, the presence of target miRNA (miR-9) initiated the TCSDR and produced primers that triggered the subsequent HCR amplification to generate copious double-stranded DNAs (dsDNAs) on the electrode surface. Intercalation of a large number of MB reporters into the long nicked double helixes of dsDNAs yielded a more enhanced signal of differential pulse voltammetry. The enzyme-free multiple-amplification approach allowed for highly sensitive (detection limit: 6.5 fM) and sequence-specific (single-base mismatch resolution) detection of miR-9 from tumor cells and human CSF with minimal sample consumption (10 μL). Moreover, the clinical utilization of this method was documented by accurate discrimination of five medulloblastoma patients from the nontumoral controls. In light of its sensitivity, specificity, and convenience of use, this electrochemical method was expected to facilitate the early detection of malignant brain tumors.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 15:ma15165760.

Abstract
Early-stage pancreatic cancer remains challenging to detect, leading to a poor five-year patient survival rate. This obstacle necessitates the development of early detection approaches based on novel technologies and materials. In this work, the presence of a specific pancreatic cancer-derived miRNA (pre-miR-132) is detected using the fluorescence properties of biocompatible nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) synthesized using a bottom-up approach from a single glucosamine precursor. The sensor platform is comprised of slightly positively charged (1.14 ± 0.36 mV) NGQDs bound via π-π stacking and/or electrostatic interactions to the negatively charged (-22.4 ± 6.00 mV) bait ssDNA; together, they form a complex with a 20 nm average size. The NGQDs' fluorescence distinguishes specific single-stranded DNA sequences due to bait-target complementarity, discriminating them from random control sequences with sensitivity in the micromolar range. Furthermore, this targetability can also detect the stem and loop portions of pre-miR-132, adding to the practicality of the biosensor. This non-invasive approach allows cancer-specific miRNA detection to facilitate early diagnosis of various forms of cancer.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are subcellular messengers that aid in the formation and spread of cancer by enabling tumor-stroma communication. EVs develop from the very porous structure of late endosomes and hold information on both the intrinsic “status” of the cell and the extracellular signals absorbed by the cells from their surroundings. These EVs contain physiologically useful components, including as nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins, which have been found to activate important signaling pathways in tumor and tumor microenvironment (TME) cells, aggravating tumor growth. We highlight critical cell biology mechanisms that link EVS formation to cargo sorting in cancer cells in this review.Sorting out the signals that control EVs creation, cargo, and delivery will aid our understanding of carcinogenesis. Furthermore, we reviewed how cancer development and spreading behaviors are affected by coordinated communication between malignant and non-malignant cells. Herein, we studied the reciprocal exchanges via EVs in various cancer types. Further research into the pathophysiological functions of various EVs in tumor growth is likely to lead to the discovery of new biomarkers in liquid biopsy and the development of tumor-specific therapies.

Abstract
While microRNAs are considered as excellent biomarkers of various diseases, there are still several remaining challenges regarding their isolation. In this study, we aimed to design a novel RNA isolation method that would help to overcome those challenges. Therefore, we present a novel phenol/chloroform-free, low-cost method for miRNA extraction. Within this method, RNA is extracted from cell lysate with an isopropanol/water/NaCl system, followed by solid-phase extraction using TiO2 microspheres to effectively separate short RNAs from long RNA molecules. We also demonstrated the pH-dependent selectivity of TiO2 microspheres towards different sizes of RNA. We were able to regulate the size range of extracted RNAs with simple adjustments in binding conditions used during the solid-phase extraction.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging with high sensitivity and minimal invasiveness has received tremendous attention, which can accomplish visualized monitoring and evaluation of cancer progression. Compared with the conventional first near-infrared (NIR-I) optical window (650-950 nm), fluorescence imaging in the second NIR optical window (NIR-II, 950-1700 nm) exhibits deeper tissue penetration capability and higher temporal-spatial resolution with lower background interference for achieving deep-tissue in vivo imaging and real-time monitoring of cancer development. Encouraged by the significant preponderances, a variety of multifunctional NIR-II fluorophores have been designed and fabricated for sensitively imaging biomarkers in vivo and visualizing the treatment procedure of cancers. In this review, the differences between NIR-I and NIR-II fluorescence imaging are briefly introduced, especially the advantages of NIR-II fluorescence imaging for the real-time visualization of tumors in vivo and cancer diagnosis. An important focus is to summarize the NIR-II fluorescence imaging for deep-tissue biomarker analysis in vivo and tumor tissue visualization, and a brief introduction of NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided cancer therapy is also presented. Finally, the significant challenges and reasonable prospects of NIR-II fluorescence imaging for cancer diagnosis in clinical applications are outlined.

Abstract
The simultaneous analysis of the levels of multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) is critical to the early diagnosis of cancer. However, this analysis is challenging because of the low concentrations of miRNAs and their high sequence homology. Here, we report a general and programmable diagnostic strategy for miRNA analysis: Thermus thermophilus Argonaute (TtAgo)-assisted exponential isothermal amplification for multiplex detection (TEAM). This system combines exponential isothermal amplification (EXPAR), for target amplification, with programmable TtAgo cleavage, for the generation of the reporting signal. The TEAM assay achieved attomolar sensitivity with a rapid turnaround time (30-35 min). Because of the single-nucleotide precision of TtAgo, the system demonstrated robust multiplex capability in the simultaneous detection of four miRNA targets and the classification of let-7 family members. The TEAM assay was superior in differentiating colorectal cancer patients from healthy individuals relative to the conventional EXPAR and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods. This tunable and scalable approach is a powerful nucleic acid analysis tool that holds promise in scientific and clinical applications.

Abstract
The function of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-related genes in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. This study aimed to analyze the expression profile and prognostic relevance of SUMO-related genes using publicly available data. A set of bioinformatics tools and experiments were integrated to explore the mechanism of the genes of interest. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression analysis was used to construct a prognostic model. SUMO-2 and SUMO-activating enzyme subunit 1 (SAE1) were upregulated in HCC. The enrichment analysis indicated that SUMO-2 and SAE1 might regulate the cell cycle. The downregulation of SAE1 inhibited the proliferation of HCC cells, whereas the upregulation of the gene promoted cell proliferation. IGF2BP3 contributed to the upregulation of SAE1 in an N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-dependent way. Eventually, an SAE1-related risk score (SRRS) was developed and validated in HCC. SRRS could serve as an independent prognostic factor and predict the efficiency of transarterial chemoembolization in patients with HCC.

Abstract
Mitochondrial microRNAs (mitomiRs) critically orchestrate mitochondrial functions. Spatial imaging of mitomiRs is essential to understand its clinical value in diagnosis and prognosis. However, the direct monitoring of mitomiRs in living cells remains a key challenge. Herein, we report an AIE nanoreporter strategy for mitomiRs imaging in living cells through pH-controlled exonuclease (Exo)-assisted target cycle signal amplification. The AIE-labeled DNA detection probes are conjugated on Exo III encapsulated polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) via consecutive adenines (polyA). The amplified sensing functions are off during the cytoplasm delivery process, and it can be spatially switched from off to on when in the alkaline mitochondria (about pH 8) after triphenylphosphonium (TPP)-mediated mitochondrial targeting. Where the NPs degraded to release Exo III and cancer-specific mitomiRs hybridize with AIE-labeled DNA detection probes to expose the cleavage site of released Exo III, enabling spatially restricted mitomiRs imaging. The mitomiRs expression fluctuation was also realized. This study contributes to a facile strategy that could easily extend to a broad application for the understanding of mitomiRs-related pathological processes.
