[PMID: 36688872 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202212458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 12/30/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) is a major neurotransmitter broadly involved in many aspects of feeling and behavior. Although its electro-activity makes it a promising candidate for electrochemical sensing, the persistent generation of fouling layers on the electrode by its oxidation products presents a hurdle for reliable sensing. Here, we present a fouling-free 5-HT sensor based on galvanic redox potentiometry. The sensor efficiently minimizes electrode fouling as revealed by in situ Raman spectroscopy, ensuring a less than 3 % signal change in a 2 hour continuous experiment, whereas amperometric sensors losing 90 % within 30 min. Most importantly, the sensor is highly amenable for in vivo studies, permitting real-time 5-HT monitoring, and supporting the mechanism associated with serotonin release in brain. Our system offers an effective way for sensing different neurochemicals having significant fouling issues, thus facilitating the molecular-level understanding of brain function.

Abstract
Neurochemical events involving biosignals of different time and space dimensionalities constitute the complex basis of neurological functions and diseases. In view of this fact, electrochemical measurements enabling real-time quantification of neurochemicals at multiple levels of spatiotemporal resolution can provide informative clues to decode the molecular networks bridging vesicles and brains. This Minireview focuses on how scientific questions regarding the properties of single vesicles, neurotransmitter release kinetics, interstitial neurochemical dynamics, and multisignal interconnections in vivo have driven the design of electrochemical nano/microsensors, sensing interface engineering, and signal/data processing. An outlook for the future frontline in this realm will also be provided.

Abstract
Microelectrode-based electrochemical (EC) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors are promising candidates for in vivo analysis of biologically important chemicals. However, limited selectivity in complicated biological systems and poor adaptability to electrochemically non-active species restrained their applications. Herein, we propose the concept of modulating the PEC output by a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process. The emission of energy donor was dependent on the concentration of target SO2 , which in turn served as the modulator of the photocurrent signal of the photoactive material. The employment of optical modulation circumvented the problem of selectivity, and the as-fabricated PEC microelectrode showed good stability and reproducibility in vivo. It can monitor fluctuations of SO2 levels in brains of rat models of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion and febrile seizure. More significantly, such a FRET modulated signaling strategy can be extended to diverse analytes.

Abstract
The selective sensing of neurochemicals is essential for understanding the chemical basis of brain function and pathology. Interfacing the excellent recognition features of aptamers with in vivo compatible carbon fiber microelectrode (CFE)-based electroanalytical systems offers a plausible means to achieve this end. However, this is challenging in terms of coupling chemistry, stability, and versatility. Here, we present a new interfacial functionalization strategy based on the assembly of aptamer cholesterol amphiphiles (aptCAs) on the alkyl chain-functionalized CFE. The noncovalent cholesterol-alkyl chain interactions effectively immobilize aptamers onto the CFE surface, allowing the generation of a highly selective system for probing neurochemical dynamics in living systems and opening up a vast array of new opportunities for designing in vivo sensors for exploring brain chemistry.
