[PMID: 38458911 DOI: 10.1016/j.gassur.2024.02.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the utility of 6 serum tumor markers in prognosis between gastric adenocarcinoma and gastric signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC). METHODS A cohort of 3131 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma and 275 cases of gastric SRCC was assembled. The serum levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), carbohydrate antigen 125, alpha fetoprotein (AFP), carbohydrate antigen 242 (CA242), and carbohydrate antigen 724 (CA724) were measured in all cases. The study analyzed the association between the levels of these 6 tumor markers and the prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma and SRCC. RESULTS The study revealed that gastric SRCC exhibited lower concentrations of CEA (P < .001) and CA19-9 (P = .002), along with reduced positive rates of CEA (P = .041), CA19-9 (P = .003), AFP (P < .001), and CA242 (P = .006), while displaying higher positive rates of CA724 (P = .024) than gastric adenocarcinoma. Nevertheless, the receiver operating characteristic curve demonstrated that serum tumor markers did not hold clinical significance in differentiating between gastric adenocarcinoma and SRCC. Survival analysis substantiated that the combined criteria of serum tumor markers stood as an independent risk factor for both gastric adenocarcinoma and SRCC. Notably, the nomogram indicated that serum tumor markers exerted a more substantial influence on the prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma than on gastric SRCC. CONCLUSION The study concluded that the combined criteria of serum tumor markers emerge as independent risk factors for both subtypes of gastric cancer. Furthermore, this combined approach exhibited enhanced efficacy in prognosticating the outcome of gastric adenocarcinoma compared with gastric SRCC.

Abstract
Heavy metal contamination for seafood, particularly fish, is arising great concerns, and consequentially it is necessary to develop a simple and direct detection method. In this work, Ag@Fe3O4 is successfully prepared by simple solvothermal method, and we present a flexible-fabricated sensor module with assembled programmable magnetic actuators. The resulting sensor integrates a three-electrode system with two programmable magnetic actuators at the bottom of the device, which regulates the amount of current by adjusting the brake to control the adsorption force and vibration. The L-Cysteine functionalized Ag@Fe3O4 is coated on the surface of the electrode, then the Cu2+ is dropped into the reaction tank. Its performance is studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and the key experimental conditions such as deposition potential, deposition time, and electrolyte pH are gradually optimized. Under optimal conditions, Cu2+ can be detected over a wide linear range (0.01 ~ 4 μM) and at a low LOD (0.34 nM). The results show that the proposed method has a good application prospect in the detection of Cu2+. This method is successfully applied to Cu2+ analysis in fish samples with an acceptable recovery of 93 ~ 102%.

Abstract
An electrochemical biosensor based on iron tetroxide (Fe3O4)/carboxylated carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH)/gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was designed for the detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), which is often used as an important indicator for the early clinical diagnosis of liver cancer markers. The Fe3O4/MWCNTs-COOH nanocomposite was synthesized by a solvothermal method and it combined with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) deposited at the constant potential on a glassy carbon electrode to form Fe3O4/MWCNTs-COOH/AuNPs, which intensifies the electrical signal while the large active sites enable more stable immobilization of the AFP monoclonal antibodies on the electrode. The electrochemical performance of Fe3O4/MWCNTs-COOH/AuNPs was investigated in detail and the electrochemical response signal after the immune reaction with the AFP antigen-antibody was recorded. The peak current Ip of the response signal is linearly proportional to the lgcAFP in the range of 1 pg mL-1-10 μg mL-1, with a detection limit of 1.09034 pg mL-1 and good performance in clinical sample testing. The proposed sensor has shown great application and development potential in clinical medicine field.

Abstract
Tumor protein quantification with high specificity, sensitivity, and efficiency is of great significance to enable early diagnosis and effective treatment. The existing methods for protein analysis usually suffer from high cost, time-consuming operation, and insufficient sensitivity, making them not clinically friendly. In this work, a label-free homogeneous sensor based on the nano-impact electroanalytic (NIE) technique was proposed for the detection of tumor protein marker alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). The detection principle is based on the recovery of current of single PtNP catalyzed hydrazine oxidation due to the release of the pre-adsorbed passivating aptamers on PtNPs from the competition of the stronger binding between the specific interaction of the AFP aptamer and AFP. The intrinsic one-by-one analytical ability of NIE allows highly sensitive detection, which can be further improved by reducing the reaction/incubation volume. Meanwhile, the current sensor avoids a laborious labeling procedure as well as the separation and washing steps due to the in situ characteristic of NIE. Accordingly, the current sensor enables efficient, highly sensitive, and specific AFP analysis. More importantly, the reliable detection of AFP in diluted real sera from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients is successfully achieved, indicating that the impact electrochemistry-based sensing platform has great potential to be applied in point-of-care devices for HCC liquid biopsy.

Abstract
Liver cancer is one of the most common global health problems that features a high mortality rate. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a potential liver cancer biomarker for the diagnosis of liver cancer. The quantitative detection of AFP at an ultratrace level has important medical significance. Using the reaction of the antibody-antigen pair in an immunosensor enables the sensitive and selective AFP assay. Finding a strategy in signal generation and amplification is challenging to fabricate new sensitive electrochemical immunosensors for AFP detection. This study demonstrates the construction of a simple, reliable, and label-free immunosensor for the detection of AFP on a smart phone. Exfoliated two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) and 2D tungsten diselenide (WSe2) were employed to modify the disposable screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) to use as the electrochemical platform, which is affixed to a small potentiostat connected to a smart phone. The modified electrode offers antibody immobilization and allows detection of AFP via an immunocomplex forming a sandwich-like configuration with the AFP-corresponding aptamer. A heterojunction 2D MoSe2/2D WSe2 composite improves the SPCE's reactivity and provides a large surface area and good adsorption capacity for the immobilizing antibodies. The signal generation for the immunosensor is from the electrochemical response of methylene blue (MB) intercalating into the aptamer bound on the electrode. The response for the proposed sandwich-like immunosensor is proportional to the AFP concentration (1.0-50,000 pg ml-1). The biosensor has potential for the development of a simple and robust point-of-care diagnostic platform for the clinical diagnosis of liver cancer, achieving a low limit of detection (0.85 pg ml-1), high sensitivity, high selectivity, good stability, and excellent reproducibility.

Abstract
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is widely-known as the most commonly used protein biomarker for liver cancer diagnosis at the early stage. Therefore, developing the highly sensitive and reliable method of AFP detection is of essential demand for practical applications. Herein, two types of aptamer-based AFP detection methods, i.e., optical and electrochemical biosensors, are reviewed in detail. The optical biosensors include Raman spectroscopy, dual-polarization interferometry, resonance light-scattering, fluorescence, and chemiluminescence. The electrochemical biosensors include cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and giant magnetic impedance. Looking into the future, methods for AFP detection that are high sensitivity, long-term stability, low cost, and operation convenience will continue to be developed.

Abstract
Current laboratory diagnostic approaches for virus detection give reliable results, but they require a lengthy procedure, trained personnel, and expensive equipment and reagents; hence, they are not a suitable choice for home monitoring purposes. This paper addresses this challenge by developing a portable impedimetric biosensing system for the identification of COVID-19 patients. This sensing system has two main parts: a throwaway two-working electrode (2-WE) strip and a novel read-out circuit, specifically designed for simultaneous signal acquisition from both working electrodes. Highly reliable electrochemical signal tracking from multiplex immunosensors provides a potential for flexible and portable multi-biomarker detection. The electrodes' surfaces were functionalized with SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Antibody enabling the selective detection of Nucleocapsid protein (N-protein) along with self-validation in the clinical nasopharyngeal swab specimens. The proposed programmable highly sensitive impedance read-out system allows for a wide dynamic detection range, which makes the sensor capable of detecting N-protein concentrations between 0.116 and 10,000 pg/mL. This lightweight and economical read-out arrangement is an ideal prospect for being mass-produced, especially during urgent pandemic situations. Also, such an impedimetric sensing platform has the potential to be redesigned for targeting not only other infectious diseases but also other critical disorders.

Abstract
Ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) are gaining popularity to design biosensors for high-performance clinical diagnosis. The fusion of information shows that FMNPs based biosensors require well-tuned FMNPs as detection probes to produce large and specific biological signals with minimal non-specific binding. Nevertheless, there is a noticeable lacuna of information to solve the issues related to suitable synthesis route, particle size reduction, functionalization, sensitivity towards targeted intercellular biological tiny particles, and lower signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore it allows exploring unique characteristics of FMNPs to design a suitable sensing device for intracellular measurements and diseases detection. This review focuses on the extensively used synthesis routes, their advantages and limitations, crystalline structure, functionalization, along with recent applications of FMNPs in biosensors, taking into consideration their analytical figures of merit and range of linearity. This work also addresses the current progress, key factors for sensitivity, selectivity and productivity improvement along with the challenges, future trends and perspectives of FMNPs based biosensors.

Abstract
Magnetic nanomaterials (MNMs) have gained high attention in different fields of studies due to their ferromagnetic/superparamagnetic properties and their low toxicity and high biocompatibility. MNMs contain magnetic elements such as iron and nickel in metallic, bimetallic, metal oxide, and mixed metal oxide. In electroanalytical methods, MNMs have been applied as sorbents for sample preparation before the electrochemical detection (sorbent role), as the electrode modifier (catalytic role), and the integration of the above two roles (as both sorbent and catalytic agent). In this paper, the application of MNMs in electroanalytical methods have been classified based on the main role of the nanomaterial and discussed separately. Furthermore, catalytic activities of MNMs in electroanalytical methods such as redox electrocatalytic, nanozymes catalytic (peroxidase, catalase activity, oxidase activity, superoxide dismutase activity), catalyst gate, and nanocontainer have been discussed.

Abstract
The synthesis of Au nanocubes is used to label alpha-fetoprotein antibody (anti-AFP) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) to form an immune complex for antibody detection. Graphene oxide-methylene blue-gold nanoparticles (GO-MB-AuNPs) nanocomposites were used as the immunosensing platform. This proposed sandwich-type immunoassay shows good performance. This method establishes a feasible amperometric immunoassay method for sensitive analysis of AFP in serum samples. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the DPV current response of the immunosensor is proportional to the logarithmic value of the AFP concentration. The linear detection range can achieve to 0.005–20 ng/mL with a detection limit of 1.5 pg/mL. The proposed immunosensor has good precision, selectivity and stability, and can be used for AFP determination in clinical tests.

Abstract
Lowering the background signal for more sensitive analysis of determinands is as important as amplifying the target signal. The photoinduced oxidase of fluorescein has been reported, which can catalyze the oxidization of common substrates in a few minutes. As a metaphor for locks and keys, we designed double locks confining the activity of fluorescein to reduce the background absorbance during colorimetric detection. The first lock inhibits the main activity of fluorescein by phosphating. The second lock almost completely deactivates fluorescein by forming coordination nanoparticles (CNPs) via the self-assembly of cerium chloride and fluorescein diphosphate (FDP). The Ce-FDP CNPs are characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and energy dispersive spectrum (EDS), which show electrostatic formation and amorphous character in the morphology. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), the key to release fluorescein, can destroy Ce-FDP CNPs along with decomposing FDP by degrading phosphate groups. Therefore, a novel colorimetric strategy for sensitive detection of ALP is established. The detection of α-fetoprotein (AFP) is further succeeded by labeling AFP antibody with ALP. By dramatically reducing the background absorbance, the detection limits of ALP and AFP are as low as 0.014 mU/mL and 0.023 ng/mL, respectively. This convenient, brief, sensitive assay provides a promising prospect for clinical diagnosis. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
In this study, we have for the first time preformed the facile substrate-enhanced electroless deposition (SEED) of metal nanoparticles onto monolithic graphene@Ni foams for construction of disposable three-dimensional (3D) electrochemical immunosensors. Specifically, we firstly used the SEED method to deposit gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) onto the graphene@Ni foam for immobilization of antibody (Ab1). This is followed by a second step SEED deposition to produce silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for electrochemical stripping detection. Using α-fetoprotein antigen (AFP) as a module analyte, the newly-developed sensor showed a wide linear response, ranging from 5.0 pg/mL to 5.0 ng/mL and a low detection limit down to 2.3 pg/mL. The newly-developed 3D-immunosensor is sensitive, reliable, and easy to be fabricated, showing great potential for clinic applications.

Abstract
The sensitive and accurate detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is critical for myocardial infarction diagnosis. In this work, a dual-aptamer-based electrochemical (EC) biosensor was designed for cTnI detection based on the DNA nanotetrahedron (NTH) capture probes and multifunctional hybrid nanoprobes. First, the NTH-based Tro4 aptamer probes were anchored on a screen printed gold electrode (SPGE) surface through the Au-S bond, providing an enhanced spatial dimension and accessibility for capturing cTnI. Then, the hybrid nanoprobes were fabricated by using magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles as nanocarriers to load a large amount of cTnI-specific Tro6 aptamer, natural horseradish peroxidase (HRP), HRP-mimicking Au@Pt nanozymes and G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme. This signaling nanoprobes are capable of specifically recognizing the target cTnI based on the Tro6 aptamer and amplifying the signals to improve the detection sensitivity via enzymatic processes. We found the remarkable enhanced effect of EC signal to be attributed to the co-catalysis effect of hybrid nanozymes, HRP and DNAzyme. The target cTnI was sandwiched between the two types of aptamers (Tro4 and Tro6) on the electrode interface. Finally, this EC aptasensing platform exhibited great analytical performance with a wide dynamic range of 0.01-100 ng mL-1 and a low detection limit of 7.5 pg mL-1 for cTnI. The high selectivity, sensitivity and reliability of EC aptasensor can provide great potential in the clinic disease diagnostics.

Abstract
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a reliable clinical marker of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A highly sensitive fluorometric aptamer nanoprobe is described for AFP detection. It is based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between AFP aptamer labelled with 5-carboxyfluorescein (FAM) and palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs). The PdNPs quench the green fluorescence of the FAM-AFP aptamer via interactions between nitrogen functional groups of the AFP aptamer and PdNPs. When AFP was introduced into the FAM-AFP aptamer-PdNPs FRET system, the AFP aptamer preferentially combines with AFP. This results in a conformational change and weakens the interaction between the aptamer and the PdNPs. Thus, the fluorescence of FAM recovers. The fluorescence recovery of FAM increases linearly in the 5.0-150 ng·mL-1 AFP concentration range and has a 1.4 ng·mL-1 detection limit. The assay was applied to the analysis of spiked diluted human serum. The recovery values ranged from 98.3 to 112.9%, with relative standard deviations of <1.1%. This biosensing strategy provides a reliable and ultrasensitive protocol for the quantification of biomarkers with relevant antigens and aptamers.

Abstract
An important class of biosensors is immunosensors, affinity biosensors that are based on the specific interaction between antibodies and antigens. They are classified in four classes based on the type of employed transducer: electrochemical, optical, microgravimetric, and thermometric and depending on the type of recognition elements, antibodies, aptamers, microRNAs and recently peptides are integrating parts. Those analytical devices are able to detect peptides, antibodies and proteins in various sample matrices, without many steps of sample pretreatment. Their high sensitivity, low cost and the easy integration in point of care devices assuring portability are attracting features that justify the increasing interest in their development. The use of nanomaterials, simultaneous multianalyte detection and integration on platforms to form point-of-care devices are promising tools that can be used in clinical analysis for early diagnosis and therapy monitoring in several pathologies. Taking into account the growing incidence of autoimmune disease and the importance of early diagnosis, electrochemical biosensors could represent a viable alternative to currently used diagnosis methods. Some relevant examples of electrochemical assays for autoimmune disease diagnosis developed in the last several years based on antigens, antibodies and peptides as receptors were gathered and will be discussed further.

Abstract
Electrochemical enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based immunoassays for cancer biomarker detection have recently attracted much interest owing to their higher sensitivity, amplification of signal, ease of handling, potential for automation and combination with miniaturized analytical systems, low cost and comparative simplicity for mass production. Their developments have considerably improved the sensitivity required for detection of low concentrations of cancer biomarkers present in bodily fluids in the early stages of the disease. Recently, various attempts have been made in their development and several methods and processes have been described for their development, amplification strategies and testing. The present review mainly focuses on the development of ELISA-based electrochemical immunosensors that may be utilized for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and therapy monitoring. Various fabrication methods and signal enhancement strategies utilized during the last few years for the development of ELISA-based electrochemical immunosensors are described.

Abstract
Iron oxide and gold-based magneto-plasmonic nanostructures exhibit remarkable optical and superparamagnetic properties originating from their two different components. As a consequence, they have improved and broadened the application potential of nanomaterials in medicine. They can be used as multifunctional nanoprobes for magneto-plasmonic heating as well as for magnetic and optical imaging. They can also be used for magnetically assisted optical biosensing, to detect extreme traces of targeted bioanalytes. This review introduces the previous work on magneto-plasmonic hetero-nanostructures including: (i) their synthesis from simple “one-step” to complex “multi-step” routes, including seed-mediated and non-seed-mediated methods; and (ii) the characterization of their multifunctional features, with a special emphasis on the relationships between their synthesis conditions, their structures and their properties. It also focuses on the most important progress made with regard to their use in nanomedicine, keeping in mind the same aim, the correlation between their morphology—namely spherical and non-spherical, core-satellite and core-shell, and the desired applications.

Label-free electrochemical aptasensor for detection of alpha-fetoprotein based on AFP-aptamer and thionin/reduced graphene oxide/gold nanoparticles. Anal Biochem 2018; 547:37-44. [PMID: 29452105 DOI: 10.1016/j.ab.2018.02.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 53] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2017] [Revised: 02/09/2018] [Accepted: 02/12/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Sensitive and accurate detection of tumor markers is critical to early diagnosis, point-of-care and portable medical supervision. Alpha fetoprotein (AFP) is an important clinical tumor marker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the concentration of AFP in human serum is related to the stage of HCC. In this paper, a label-free electrochemical aptasensor for AFP detection was fabricated using AFP-aptamer as the recognition molecule and thionin/reduced graphene oxide/gold nanoparticles (TH/RGO/Au NPs) as the sensor platform. With high electrocatalytic property and large specific surface area, RGO and Au NPs were employed on the screen-printed carbon electrode to load TH molecules. The TH not only acted as a bridging molecule to effectively capture and immobilize AFP-aptamer, but as the electron transfer mediator to provide the electrochemical signal. The AFP detection was based on the monitoring of the electrochemical current response change of TH by the differential pulse voltammetry. Under optimal conditions, the electrochemical responses were proportional to the AFP concentration in the range of 0.1-100.0 μg/mL. The limit of detection was 0.050 μg/mL at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The proposed method may provide a promising application of aptamer with the properties of facile procedure, low cost, high selectivity in clinic.
