Abstract
Highly sensitive and specific imaging of ATP in living cells remains a challenge. Here, a novel aptasensor based endogenous enzyme-powered DNA walker for imaging ATP was proposed. The strategy leverages the highly expressed APE1 in tumor cells as the driving force of the DNA walker, achieving high sensitivity and superior imaging contrast. The method can detect ATP as low as 3.43 μM within 1 h. The approach can also effectively monitor intracellular ATP expression fluctuations and successfully differentiate between normal and cancer cells with high contrast.

Enhancing Colorimetric Detection of Nucleic Acids on Nitrocellulose Membranes: Cutting-Edge Applications in Diagnostics and Forensics. BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:430. [PMID: 39329805 PMCID: PMC11429540 DOI: 10.3390/bios14090430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2024] [Revised: 08/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/30/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024]
Abstract
This study re-introduces a protein-free rapid test method for nucleic acids on paper based lateral flow assays utilizing special multichannel nitrocellulose membranes and DNA-Gold conjugates, achieving significantly enhanced sensitivity, easier protocols, reduced time of detection, reduced costs of production and advanced multiplexing possibilities. A protein-free nucleic acid-based lateral flow assay (NALFA) with a limit of detection of 1 pmol of DNA is shown for the first time. The total production duration of such an assay was successfully reduced from the currently known several days to just a few hours. The simplification and acceleration of the protocol make the method more accessible and practical for various applications. The developed method supports multiplexing, enabling the simultaneous detection of up to six DNA targets. This multiplexing capability is a significant improvement over traditional line tests and offers more comprehensive diagnostic potential in a single assay. The approach significantly reduces the run time compared to traditional line tests, which enhances the efficiency of diagnostic procedures. The protein-free aspect of this assay minimizes the prevalent complications of cross-reactivity in immunoassays especially in cases of multiplexing. It is also demonstrated that the NALFA developed in this study is amplification-free and hence does not rely on specialized technicians, nor does it involve labour-intensive steps like DNA extraction and PCR processes. Overall, this study presents a robust, efficient, and highly sensitive platform for DNA or RNA detection, addressing several limitations of current methods documented in the literature. The advancements in sensitivity, cost reduction, production time, and multiplexing capabilities mark a substantial improvement, holding great potential for various applications in diagnostics, forensics, and molecular biology.

Abstract
Hg2+ is highly toxic to human health and ecosystem. In this work, based on the unique fluorescent property of 2-Aminopurine (2-AP), the formation of T-Hg2+-T mismatch structure and the signal amplification of exonuclease III (Exo III) assisted target cycle, a fluorescent probe for facile and sensitive detection of Hg2+ is constructed. The hairpin-looped DNA probe is rationally designed with 2-AP embedded in the stem and thymine-rich recognition overhangs extended at the termini. The cleavage of the double stranded DNA stem with stable T-Hg2+-T pairs catalyzed by Exo III is prompted to happen upon recognition of trace Hg2+. Under the optimal reaction conditions, there is an excellent linear relationship between Hg2+ concentration and fluorescence intensity in the range of 7.5-200 nM with a detection limit of 0.38 nM. In addition, the detection results of Hg2+ in Songhua River water and fish samples are satisfactory. The fluorescent probe avoids labeling additional quenchers or quenching materials and has strong anti-interference ability. Thus, the fluorescent probe has a broad prospect in practical application.

Abstract
To detect biomarkers in complex samples, it is fundamental to avoid the nonspecific adsorption of impurities to improve the selectivity of biosensors. In this study, a sensitive antifouling electrochemiluminescence biosensor was proposed based on bovine serum albumin (BSA)- and exonuclease III (Exo III)-mediated nucleic acid cycle signal amplification strategy. Ti3C2Tx-NH4, which has a large surface area and high metal conductivity, was crosslinked with BSA to improve the conductivity of the sensing interface, which shows antifouling performance excellently due to the electrical neutrality and good hydrophilicity of BSA hydrogel. The cyclic amplification strategy based on Exo III and DNA hybridization chain reaction significantly amplified the electrochemiluminescence signal and improved the sensitivity of p53 gene detection. The linear range of the biosensor is 1 fM-1 nM with a detection limit of 0.26 fM. More importantly, the sensor showed excellent selectivity when it was used to detect the p53 gene in real samples, such as serum. Thus, this unique antifouling sensing interface is expected to construct various electrochemical biosensors in clinical diagnosis and biopathological analysis.

Abstract
DNA biosensors play important roles in environmental, medical, industrial and agricultural analysis. Many DNA biosensors have been designed based on the enzyme catalytic reaction. Because of the importance of enzymes in biosensors, we present a review on this topic. In this review, the enzymes were divided into DNAzymes and nucleases according to their chemical nature. Firstly, we introduced the DNAzymes with different function inducing cleavage, metalation, peroxidase, ligation and allosterism. In this section, the G-quadruplex DNAzyme, as a hot topic in recent years, was described in detail. Then, the nucleases-assisted signal amplification method was also reviewed in three categories including exonucleases, endonucleases and other nucleases according to the digestion sites in DNA substrates. In exonucleases section, the Exo I and Exo III were selected as examples. Then, the DNase I, BamH I, nicking endonuclease, S1 nuclease, the duplex specific nuclease (DSN) and RNases were chosen to illustrate the application of endonucleases. In other nucleases section, DNA polymerases and DNA ligases were detailed. Last, the challenges and future perspectives in the field were discussed.

Abstract
Increasing the local concentration of DNA-based probes is a convenient way to improve the sensitivity of biosensors. Instead of using organic solvents or ionic liquids that phase-separate with water based on hydrophobic interactions, we herein studied a classic aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) comprising polyethylene glycol (PEG) and dextran. Polymers of higher molecular weights and higher concentrations favored phase separation. DNA oligonucleotides are selectively enriched in the dextran-rich phase unless the pH was increased to 12. A higher volume ratio of PEG-to-dextran and a higher concentration of PEG also enrich more DNA probes in the dextran-rich phase. The partition efficiency of the T15 DNA was enriched around seven times in the dextran phase when the volume ratio of dextran and PEG reached 1:10. The detection of limit improved by 3.6-fold in a molecular beacon-based DNA detection system with the ATPS. The ATPS also increased the sensitivity for the detection of Hg2+ and adenosine triphosphate, although these target molecules alone distributed equally in the two phases. This work demonstrates a simple method using water soluble polymers to improve biosensors.

Abstract
The mismatched catalytic hairpin assembly (mCHA), a programmable oligonucleotide circuit, is one of the promising isothermal amplification methods used in nucleic acid detection. Its limitations are related to a high background noise observed due to the target-independent hybridization of the reacting hairpins (HPs). In this work, it was shown that the introduction of salts such as NaCl and MgCl2 to HP1/HP2 annealing solutions sharply reduces the background in mCHA and simultaneously increases the signal-to-background (S/B) ratio. A comparison of the salts demonstrated the higher activity of MgCl2 as compared to NaCl. A similar effect of reducing the background was observed with a decrease in the concentration of H1/H2 probes in annealing solutions. Using the favorable annealing conditions allowed the development of an ultrasensitive chemiluminescence assay coupled with mCHA for miRNA quantitation. Except mCHA, the use of a streptavidin-polyHRP conjugate and an enhanced chemiluminescence reaction additionally increased the assay sensitivity. Notably, the optimization of the HP annealing diminished the detection limit of the assay by 2 orders of magnitude and increased the sensitivity and precision of miRNA-141 determination. The discovered fact of reducing the background by the variation of HP annealing conditions may be valuable not only for the mCHA performance but also likely for other HP-based biochemical methods.

Abstract
A sensitive and specific heterogeneous assay for quantitation of cel-miRNA-39-3p (miRNA-39) was constructed. To improve the assay sensitivity an amplification strategy based on the use of isothermal circular strand-displacement polymerization reaction (ICSDPR), polyperoxidase conjugated with streptavidin and enhanced chemiluminescence was used. The detection limit of the proposed assay was 4 × 10-13 M. The coefficient of variation (CV) for quantitation of miRNA-39 within the working range was below 8%. The study of cross-reactivity of different miRNAs including miRNA-39 demonstrated high specificity of the proposed assay. Comparison of the calibration curves of miRNA-39 dissolved in the buffer and the lysate of MCF-7 cells (prepared by lysis of the cells with phenol/guanidine thiocyanate mixture and purified using silica membrane spin column) has demonstrated a negligible matrix effect. The proposed assay makes it possible to estimate the yield of purification of miRNAs from cells, which is necessary for the quantitative calculation of the intracellular content of miRNAs measured with the isothermal assay coupled with ICSDPR.

Abstract
Mercury ion (Hg2+) is a well-known toxic heavy metal ion. It is harmful for human health even at low concentrations in the environment. Therefore, it is very important to measure the level of Hg2+. Many methods, reviewed in several papers, have been established on DNA biosensors for detecting Hg2+. However, few reviews on the strategy of enzyme-driven signal amplification have been reported. In this paper, we reviewed this topic by dividing the enzymes into nucleases and DNAzymes according to their chemical nature. Initially, we introduce the nucleases including Exo III, Exo I, Nickase, DSN, and DNase I. In this section, the Exo III-driven signal amplification strategy was described in detail. Because Hg2+ can help ssDNA fold into dsDNA by T-Hg-T, and the substrate of Exo III is dsDNA, Exo III can be used to design Hg2+ biosensor very flexibly. Then, the DNAzyme-assisted signal amplification strategies were reviewed in three categories, including UO22+-specific DNAzymes, Cu2+-specific DNAzymes and Mg2+-specific DNAzymes. In this section, the Mg2+-specific DNAzyme was introduced in detail, because this DNAzyme has highly catalytic activity, and Mg2+ is very common ion which is not harmful to the environment. Finally, the challenges and future perspectives were discussed.

Abstract
The emergence of the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a zoonotic pathogen, has led to the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and brought serious threats to public health worldwide. The gold standard method for SARS-CoV-2 detection requires both reverse transcription (RT) of the virus RNA to cDNA and then polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the cDNA amplification, which involves multiple enzymes, multiple reactions and a complicated assay optimization process. Here, we developed a duplex-specific nuclease (DSN)-based signal amplification method for SARS-CoV-2 detection directly from the virus RNA utilizing two specific DNA probes. These specific DNA probes can hybridize to the target RNA at different locations in the nucleocapsid protein gene (N gene) of SARS-CoV-2 to form a DNA/RNA heteroduplex. DSN cleaves the DNA probe to release fluorescence, while leaving the RNA strand intact to be bound to another available probe molecule for further cleavage and fluorescent signal amplification. The optimized DSN amount, incubation temperature and incubation time were investigated in this work. Proof-of-principle SARS-CoV-2 detection was demonstrated with a detection sensitivity of 500 pM virus RNA. This simple, rapid, and direct RNA detection method is expected to provide a complementary method for the detection of viruses mutated at the PCR primer-binding regions for a more precise detection.

Abstract
Owing to their high programmability and modularity, autonomous enzyme-free nucleic acid circuits are attracting ever-growing interest as signal amplifiers with potential applications in developing highly sensitive biosensing techniques. Besides nucleic acid input, the biosensing scope of aptamer-integrated nucleic acids could be further expanded to non-nucleic targets by integrating nucleic acid circuits with aptamers-a class of functional oligonucleotides with binding capabilities toward specific targets. By coupling upstream target recognition with downstream signal amplification, aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits enable aptasensors with increased sensitivity and enhanced performances, which may act as powerful tools in various fields including environment monitoring, personal care, clinical diagnosis, etc. In designing aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits, smart integration between aptamer and nucleic acid circuits plays a crucial role in developing reliable circuits with good performances. To date, although there are plenty of published researches adopting aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits as amplifiers in biosensing systems, deep discussion or systematic review on rational design strategies for aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits is still lacking. To fill this gap, rational aptamer-nucleic acid circuits integration modes were classified and summarized for the first time based on reviewing the state of art of existing aptamer-integrated nucleic acid circuits. Moreover, theoretical updates in nucleic acid circuits designs and major challenges to be overcome in developing highly sensitive aptamer-integrated nucleic acids based biosensing systems are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Exosomes have received increasingly significant attention and have shown great clinical value as biomarkers for a number of diseases. However, there is still a lack of a highly sensitive and visualized method for the detection of exosomes in numerous samples simultaneously. Here, we developed a high-throughput, colorimetric and simple method to detect colorectal cancer (CRC) exosomes based on terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-aided ultraviolet signal amplification. Anti-A33, a CRC exosomal protein marker, was selected as a capture probe, and a facility-prepared EpCAM (CRC exosomal protein) aptamer-Au-primer complex was used as a signal probe. After the CRC exosomes were captured onto the surface of 96-well plates, the primer was extended to the poly(biotin-adenine) chains with the help of TdT, resulting in an increase in the binding amount of avidin-modified horseradish peroxidase (Av-HRP) for H2O2-mediated oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) in enzyme-linked aptamer-sorbent assay (ELASA). The results showed that the incorporation of ploy(biotin-A) enabled approximately 10.4-fold signal amplification. This approach achieved a linear range of 9.75 × 103-1.95 × 106 particles/μL for CRC cell-derived exosomes. The feasibility of the developed assay was evaluated using clinical serum samples. CRC patients (n = 16) could be clearly and successfully distinguished from healthy individuals (n = 9). Furthermore, this proposed platform holds considerable potential for the detection of different targets, simply by changing the aptamer and antibody.

Abstract
We have developed a fluorescence double-probe detection system with signal amplification for simple typing and determination of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) functional gene based on non-sequence dependence of ExoIII nuclease on dsDNA and rapid separation of magnetic bead. Matched detected gene can cyclically release abundant fluorescence-labeled ssDNA from the probe and the corresponding measured fluorescence signal is amplified up to 6063 times. In this case, the probe cannot release the measured fluorescence signal for the point mutation gene and then the corresponding measured signal is inhibited. According to signal amplification and inhabitation of the probe, we proposed both an accurate genotyping approach with strong specificity and a sensitive determination approach with high selectivity for SNP functional gene. For qualitative genotyping, there are obvious genotype-based differences of measured fluorescence phenotypes among three kinds of the samples of the investigated SNP. The quantitative determinations of its wild-type gene and mutant gene have all a good linearity in the range from 0.5 to 500 pmol/L with the correlation coefficients R2 of 0.9940 and 0.9911, and a high sensitivity with the detection limits of 0.11 and 0.20 pmol/L, respectively. Compared to the usual single-probe detection system, the developed double-probe system can achieve not only accurate genotyping but also the sensitive gene determination. Meanwhile, it is also a simple and reliable method for both quantitative and qualitative analysis of functional gene.

Abstract
Recently, there has been a rapid progress in the development of techniques for isothermal amplification of nucleic acids as an alternative to polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The advantage of these methods is that the nucleic acids amplification can be carried out at constant temperature, unlike PCR, which requires cyclic temperature changes. Moreover, isothermal amplification can be conducted directly in living cells. This review describes the principles of isothermal amplification techniques and demonstrates their high efficiency in designing new highly sensitive detection methods of nucleic acids and enzymes involved in their modifications. The data on successful application of isothermal amplification methods for the analysis of cells and biomolecules with the use of DNA/RNA aptamers are presented.

Abstract
Fast label-free chemiluminescent assay for determination of exonuclease III (ExoIII) activity measured towards hairpin oligonucleotide substrates was developed. The designed substrates consisted of EAD2 aptamer to hemin which was associated with DNA sequence complementary to 5'-terminus fragment of EAD2. In the presence of ExoIII the associated sequence of the hairpin stem was digested, producing EAD2 aptamer which reacted with hemin with the formation of peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme (PMDNAzyme). The catalytic activity of the produced PMDNAzyme was measured towards luminol/H2O2. Under the optimized conditions the limit of detection and sensitivity of the one-step chemiluminescent assay of ExoIII were 7.3 nM and 1.7 × 108 M-1, respectively. The coefficient of variation (CV) was lower than 6%.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are attractive candidates for biomarkers for early cancer diagnosis, and play vital roles in physiological and pathological processes. In this work, we developed a colorimetric and fluorescent dual-mode sensor for miRNA detection based on the optical properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and the duplex-specific nuclease (DSN)-assisted signal amplification technique. In brief, FAM labelled hairpin probes (HPs) were immobilized on AuNPs, and fluorescence was efficiently quenched by the vicinity of the fluorophores to the AuNPs surface. In the presence of target miRNAs, the HPs could specifically hybridize with miRNAs and the DNA strand in the DNA/RNA heteroduplexes could be subsequently hydrolyzed by DSN. As a result, numbers of fluorophores were released into the solution, resulting in obvious fluorescence signal recovery. Meanwhile, the target miRNAs were able to participate in other hybridization reactions. With the DSN-assisted signal amplification technique, lots of gold nanoparticles were produced with short-chain DNA on their surface, which could aggregate in salt solution and result in a colorimetric detection. The proposed dual-mode strategy offers a sensitive, accurate and selective detection method for miRNAs. One reason is that the stem of the HPs was elaborately designed to avoid hydrolyzation by DSN under optimal conditions, which ensures a relatively low background and high sensitivity. The other is that the dual-mode strategy is more beneficial for enhancing the accuracy and reproducibility of the measurements. Moreover, the unique selective-cutting ability and single-base mismatch differentiation capability of the DSN also give rise to a satisfactory selectivity. This demonstrated that the developed method could quantitatively detect miR-21 down to 50 pM with a linear calibration range from 50 pM to 1 nM, and the analytical assay of target miRNAs in cell lysate samples revealed its great potential for application in biomedical research and clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world, which can lead to considerably high mortality rate. It was reported that the prognosis is extremely poor and survival is often measured in months once CRC metastases become clinically evident. Therefore, the development of effective approach for metastatic CRC cells detection and imaging may potentially be significant and helpful for CRC prognosis and treatment. Therefore, we proposed a sensitive and specific approach for high-metastatic CRC LoVo cells detection and imaging by using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-initiated molecule beacons (MBs) arrayed fluorescent aptamer probes (denoted as TMAP). In this approach, the aptamer W3 targeting high-metastatic CRC LoVo cells was elongated to form W3-poly A at the 3'-hydroxyl terminus with repeated A bases in the presence of TdT and dATP. The MBs designed with poly T sequence in the loop were then hybridized with the poly A in the aptamer W3. The TMAP was easily constructed without the need of aptamer modification. It was demonstrated that this approach could specifically detect and image the high-metastatic CRC LoVo cells from the mixture of high-metastatic CRC LoVo cells and non-metastatic HCT-8 cells. Compared with 6-carboxyfluorescein (6-FAM) labeled aptamer W3, the TMAP was demonstrated to have a much stronger fluorescence signal on the target cells, realizing a 4-fold increase in signal-to-background ratio (SBR). Determination by flow cytometry allowed for detection of as low as 23 CRC LoVo cells in 200 μL cell culture medium. The high sensitivity and the capability for using in complicate biological samples imply that this approach holds considerable potential for metastatic CRC detection and therapy.

Abstract
Exosomes are cell-derived small extracellular vesicles that are naturally secreted by all types of cells and widely distributed in various biofluids. They carry a variety of key bioactive molecules (e.g., nucleic acids, proteins, growth factors, cytokines) from their parent cells and convey them to neighboring or even distant cells through circulation. In recent years, tumor-derived exosomes have attracted great interest from investigators because they actively participate in nearly all aspects of tumor development and facilitate both tumor growth and metastasis through exosome-mediated intercellular communication. The vesicular contents are increasingly considered potential biomarkers for tumor diagnoses and prognosis. With the progress made in isolation and analytical technologies, the functions of exosomes and their contents in tumor development are also becoming clearer. In this review article we describe the recent developments in exosome isolation techniques and analysis of exosomal contents. We also address their applications in cancer detection and therapy.

Abstract
A covalent conjugate of horseradish apoperoxidase and amino-containing oligonucleotide was synthesized for the first time. Using the obtained conjugate as a capture reagent chemiluminescent microtiter plate-based assay for detection of 35-mer fragment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA (proof-of-concept analyte) was developed. To detect the target DNA, a signaling system consisted of biotinylated reporter oligonucleotide and HRP-streptavidin conjugate was used. The high sensitivity of the assay was due to the enhanced chemiluminescence reaction, where 3-(10′-phenothiazinyl)propane-1-sulfonate/N-morpholinopyridine pair was used as an enhancer. Under the optimized conditions the limit of detection and a working range of the assay were 3 pM and 6⁻100 pM, respectively. The assay sensitivity was 1.6 × 10⁵ RLU/pM of target. The coefficient of variation (CV) for determination of HBV DNA within the working range was lower than 6%.
