Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of death globally and early diagnosis is of paramount importance for identifying appropriate treatment pathways to improve cancer patient survival. However, conventional methods for cancer detection such as biopsy, CT scan, magnetic resonance imaging, endoscopy, X-ray and ultrasound are limited and not efficient for early cancer detection. Advancements in molecular technology have enabled the identification of various cancer biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of the deadly disease. The detection of these biomarkers can be done by biosensors. Biosensors are less time consuming compared to conventional methods and has the potential to detect cancer at an earlier stage. Compared to conventional biosensors, photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors have improved selectivity and sensitivity and is a suitable tool for detecting cancer agents. Recently, 2D carbon materials have gained interest as a PEC sensing platform due to their high surface area and ease of surface modifications for improved electrical transfer and attachment of biorecognition elements. This review will focus on the development of 2D carbon nanomaterials as electrode platform in PEC biosensors for the detection of cancer biomarkers. The working principles, biorecognition strategies and key parameters that influence the performance of the biosensors will be critically discussed. In addition, the potential application of PEC biosensor in clinical settings will also be explored, providing insights into the future perspective and challenges of exploiting PEC biosensors for cancer diagnosis.

COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2022; 2022:1704948. [PMID: 35912162 PMCID: PMC9328981 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1704948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Gastric carcinoma (GC) is one of the most common malignancies in the world with the great early screening challenges. The study is aimed at establishing a new detection method for early screening GC using time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) via quantitative detection of gastrin-17 (G-17) and carbohydrate antigen 724 (CA724) in serum. Time-resolved analyzer measured the fluorescence intensity. The standards of G-17/CA724 were used for drawing the standard curve, which is used to calculate the concentration of G-17 and CA724 in serum sample. The sensitivity for G-17 was 0.54 pg/mL and for CA724 was 0.28 U/mL with a wide-range analyze concentration (0.1-1000) pg/mL or U/mL. The average recoveries ranged from 100.52% to 110.30% for G-17 and 103.02% to 116.00% for CA724. All CVs of the intra- and interassay were below 10% with high specificity. There was a high Pearson coefficient between this TRFIA method and the commercially available kits (Pearson r 0.9117 for G-17 and 0.9449 for CA724). Additionally, the cutoff value was 88.41 pg/mL and 5.47 U/mL for CA724 in health subjects. This study established a TRFIA method for simultaneous detection of the concentrations of G-17 and CA724 in serum, which provide a new method for sensitive, accurate, and specific early screening of gastric cancer.

Biosens Bioelectron 2021; 185:113251. [PMID: 33905965 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Revised: 03/27/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
A novel photoelectrochemical immunosensor was constructed to monitor carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) based on hybridization chain reaction (HCR)-mediated in situ generation of copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) and subsequent Cu2+-dependent quenching reaction, in which titanium dioxide nanoparticles-sensitized double-shell zinc cadmium sulfide hollow nanospheres (TiO2/DS-ZnCdS)-modified ITO electrode and anti-CEA antibody-modified 96-well plate served as biological recognition and signal detection platforms, respectively. The synergistic effect of TiO2 NPs and DS-ZnCdS hollow nanospheres contributed to the improvement of photoelectric conversion efficiency, and HCR-mediated signal cascade benefited the enhancement of detection sensitivity. In the presence of CEA, biotin-labelled anti-CEA antibodies were immobilized onto anti-CEA antibody-modified 96-well plate, and triggered HCR process to form long double stranded DNA, which could adsorb a large number of Cu2+ ions and then in situ form Cu NPs on double stranded DNA template by a facile reduction reaction. After acid treatment, the dissolved Cu2+ ions could significantly reduce the photocurrent response due to the generation of CuxS. Under optimal conditions, the immunosensor exhibited a desirable liner range of 1 pg mL-1 - 50 ng mL-1 and a low detection limit of 0.1 pg mL-1, as well as excellent selectivity and stability. Meanwhile, the recoveries of human serum sample analysis ranged from 96.8% to 103.6%, and the relative standard deviation was less than 7.40%, showing a good feasibility in early clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
An electrochemical aptasensing method is described for the determination of the biomarker CA125. It combines aptamer recognition and target-triggered strand displacement amplification. Flower like gold nanostructures were electrodeposited on a screen-printed carbon electrode to increase the sensor surface, to assemble more toehold-containing hairpin probe 1 (Hp1), and to improve the accessibility for DNA strands. Under the optimal conditions, this assay has a linear response in the 0.05 to 50 ng•mL-1 CA125 concentration range, with a low detection limit of 5.0 pg•mL-1. This method is specific and stable. It was successfully applied to the detection of CA125 in spiked biological samples, with recoveries between 82.5% and 104.1%. Graphical abstract.
