Abstract
Introduction: Aptamers are valuable for bioassays, but aptamer-target binding is susceptible to reaction conditions. In this study, we combined thermofluorimetric analysis (TFA) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to optimize aptamer-target binding, explore underlying mechanisms and select preferred aptamer. Methods: Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) aptamer AP273 (as the model) was incubated with AFP under various experimental conditions, and melting curves were measured in a real-time PCR system to select the optimal binding conditions. The intermolecular interactions of AP273-AFP were analysed by MD simulations with these conditions to reveal the underlying mechanisms. A comparative study between AP273 and control aptamer AP-L3-4 was performed to validate the value of combined TFA and MD simulation in selecting preferred aptamers. Results: The optimal aptamer concentration and buffer system were easily determined from the dF/dT peak characteristics and the melting temperature (Tm) values on the melting curves of related TFA experiments, respectively. A high Tm value was found in TFA experiments performed in buffer systems with low metal ion strength. The molecular docking and MD simulation analyses revealed the underlying mechanisms of the TFA results, i.e., the binding force and stability of AP273 to AFP were affected by the number of binding sites, frequency and distance of hydrogen bonds, and binding free energies; these factors varied in different buffer and metal ion conditions. The comparative study showed that AP273 was superior to the homologous aptamer AP-L3-4. Conclusion: Combining TFA and MD simulation is efficient for optimizing the reaction conditions, exploring underlying mechanisms, and selecting aptamers in aptamer-target bioassays.

Abstract
Here, we report a novel aptasensor based on decahedral silver nanoparticles (Ag10NPs) enhanced fluorescence polarization (FP) for detecting PCB-77. Using aptamer modified Ag10NPs hybridized with DNA sequence labeled fluorescent group as an analytical probe, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB-77) could be detected with high sensitivity and selectivity. The linear range of determination was 0.02 ng/L to 390 ng/L and the limit of detection was 5 pg/L. In addition, through the optimization of the experiment condition and signal probe DNA (pDNA), we found that the maximum FP signal could be generated when the distance between fluorescein and the surface of Ag10NPs was 3 nm. When the aptamer was immobilized on the surface of Ag10NPs could be strengthened the anti-interference performance of aptamer nanoprobe and further improved the detection ability. At the same time, we also compared the detection performance of the traditional FP signal enhancer streptavidin (SA) analysis system. The fluorescence polarization aptasensor could detect PCB-77 samples efficiently in complex environmental water, which shows a good application prospect.

Abstract
In this work, we reported a rapid and sensitive fluorescence assay in homogenous solution for detecting organophosphorus pesticides by using tetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA)-labeled aptamer and its complementary DNA (cDNA) with extended guanine (G) bases. The hybridization of cDNA and aptamer drew TAMRA close to repeated G bases, then the fluorescence of TAMRA was quenched by G bases due to the photoinduced electron transfer (PET). Upon introducing the pesticide target, the aptamer bound to pesticide instead of cDNA because of the competition between pesticide and cDNA. Thus, the TAMRA departed from G bases, resulting in fluorescence recovery of TAMRA. Under optimal conditions, the limits of detection for phorate, profenofos, isocarbophos, and omethoate were 0.333, 0.167, 0.267, and 0.333 µg/L, respectively. The method was also used in the analysis of profenofos in vegetables. Our fluorescence design was simple, rapid, and highly sensitive, which provided a means for monitoring the safety of agricultural products.

Abstract
Thanks to its preparatory ease, close affinity, and low cost, the aptasensor can serve as a promising substitute for antibody-dependent biosensors. However, the available aptasensors are mostly subject to a single-mode readout and the interference of unbound aptamers in solution and non-target-induced transition events. Herein, we proposed a multimodal aptasensor for multimode detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) with cross-validation using the 3'-6-carboxyfluorescein (FAM)-enhanced exonuclease I (Exo I) tool and magnetic microbead carrier. Specifically, the 3'-FAM-labeled aptamer/biotinylated-cDNA hybrids were immobilized onto streptavidin-magnetic microbeads via streptavidin-biotin interaction. With the presence of OTA, an antiparallel G-quadruplex conformation was formed, protecting the 3'-FAM labels from Exo I digestion, and then anti-FAM-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was bound via specific antigen-antibody affinity; for the aptamers without the protection of OTA, the distal ssDNA was hydrolyzed from 3' → 5', releasing 3'-FAM labels to the solution. Therefore, the OTA was detected by analyzing the "signal-off" fluorescence of the supernatant and two "signal-on" signals in electrochemistry and colorimetry through the detection of the coating magnetic microbeads in HRP's substrate. The results showed that the 3'-FAM labels increased the activity of Exo I, producing a low background due to a more thorough digestion of unbound aptamers. The proposed multimodal aptasensor successfully detected the OTA in actual samples. This work first provides a novel strategy for the development of aptasensors with Exo I and 3'-FAM labels, broadening the application of aptamer in the multimode detection of small molecules.

Abstract
Fluorescence anisotropy/polarization is an attractive and versatile technique based on molecular rotation in biochemical/biophysical systems. Traditional fluorescence anisotropy/polarization assays showed relatively low sensitivity for molecule detection, because widespread molecular masses are too small to produce detectable changes in fluorescence anisotropy/polarization value. In this review, we discuss in detail how the potential of fluorescence anisotropy/polarization signal approach considerably expanded through the implementation of mass amplification, recycle the target amplification, fluorescence probes structure-switching amplification, resonance energy transfer amplification, and provide perspectives at future directions and applications.

Abstract
Herein, we originally aimed at developing fluorescence anisotropy biosensor platforms devoted to the homogeneous-phase detection of isocarbophos and phorate pesticides by using previously isolated DNA aptamers. To achieve this, two reporting approaches displaying very high generalizability features were implemented, based on either the complementary strand or the SYBR green intercalator displacement strategies. Unfortunately, none of the transduction methods led to phorate-dependent signals. Only the SYBR green displacement method provided a small output in the presence of isocarbophos, but at an analyte concentration greater than 100 μM. In order to identify the origin of such data, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments were subsequently performed. It was shown that aptamers bind neither isocarbophos nor phorate in free solution with the claimed micromolar dissociation constants. This work puts forward some doubts about the previously described aptasensors that rely on the use of these functional DNA molecules. It also highlights the need to carefully investigate the binding capabilities of aptamers after their isolation and to include appropriate control experiments with scrambled or mutated oligonucleotides.

Abstract
Fluorescence polarization holds considerable promise for bioanalytical systems because it allows the detection of selective interactions in real time and a choice of fluorophores, the detection of which the biosample matrix does not influence; thus, their choice simplifies and accelerates the preparation of samples. For decades, these possibilities were successfully applied in fluorescence polarization immunoassays based on differences in the polarization of fluorophore emissions excited by plane-polarized light, whether in a free state or as part of an immune complex. However, the results of recent studies demonstrate the efficacy of fluorescence polarization as a detected signal in many bioanalytical methods. This review summarizes and comparatively characterizes these developments. It considers the integration of fluorescence polarization with the use of alternative receptor molecules and various fluorophores; different schemes for the formation of detectable complexes and the amplification of the signals generated by them. New techniques for the detection of metal ions, nucleic acids, and enzymatic reactions based on fluorescence polarization are also considered.

Abstract
Effective detection of biomolecules is important for biological research and medical diagnosis. We here propose a ligation-triggered and protein-assisted fluorescence anisotropy amplification platform for sensitive and selective detection of small biomolecules in a complex biological matrix. In the proposed method, in the presence of target small molecules, FAM-labeled DNA 1 and biotin-labeled DNA2 were ligated to produce an integrated DNA. As a result, taking advantage of the extraordinary strong interaction between biotin and streptavidin, we employed a novel mass amplification strategy for sensitive detection of small molecules through fluorescence anisotropy. The method could detect ATP from 0.05 to 1 μM, with a detection limit of 41 nM, and detect NAD+ from 0.01 to 1 μM, with a detection limit of 6.7 nM. Furthermore, ligase-specific dependence of different cofactors provides good selectivity for the detection platform. As a result, the new platform has a broad spectrum of applications both in bioanalysis and biomedical fields. A ligation-triggered and protein-assisted fluorescence anisotropy amplification platform has been developed for sensitive and selective detection of small molecules in a biological matrix.![]()

Abstract
There has been increasing recent concern about the agricultural use of organophosphorus pesticides. A rapid and sensitive fluorescence assay for the detection of three organophosphorus pesticides has therefore been developed using 6-carboxy-fluorescein labeling aptamer as the probe and functionalized magnetic nanoparticles as the separation carrier. The aptamer hybridized with complementary DNA conjugated on the surface of the magnetic nanoparticles to form a magnetic aptamer-complementary DNA complex. Upon introducing the target organophosphorus pesticide, the aptamer departed from the complementary DNA, resulting in the fluorescence signal. Under optimized conditions, the limits of detection (LODs, S/N = 3) for trichlorfon, glyphosate, and malathion were 72.20 ng L-1, 88.80 ng L-1, and 195.37 ng L-1, respectively. The method was applied for the detection of trichlorfon, glyphosate, and malathion in spiked lettuce and carrot samples. The recoveries were in the range of 79.4%-118.7%, which were in good agreement with those obtained by gas chromatography, and the relative standard deviations were also acceptable. The method therefore has high sensitivity, so provides a means for the detection of multiple organophosphorus pesticides.

Ma P, Ye H, Deng J, Khan IM, Yue L, Wang Z. A fluorescence polarization aptasensor coupled with polymerase chain reaction and streptavidin for chloramphenicol detection. Talanta 2019; 205:120119. [PMID: 31450463 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2019.120119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2019] [Revised: 06/23/2019] [Accepted: 07/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
The authors describe a fluorescence polarization (FP) aptasensor based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and streptavidin as dual FP amplifiers to detect chloramphenicol residues in food. Briefly, label-free aptamer was incubated with chloramphenicol and the aptamer-chloramphenicol conjugate was used as a template. Subsequently, the FAM-labeled forward primer and biotin-labeled reverse primer were added for PCR to amplify the template and the FAM-labeled primer. The molecular weight of FAM-labeled primer increased rapidly and the corresponding FP also enhanced. Finally, with the introduction of streptavidin, the PCR products and streptavidin were combined with the biotin-streptavidin interactions, resulting in much larger molecular weight. Thus, a dual amplified FP signal was obtained. Under optimal conditions, we were able to achieve a wide linear detection range of 0.001-200 nM. In addition, the designed strategy was applied to detect chloramphenicol in honey samples with high accuracy. Moreover, the strategy can be easily extended to detect other small molecules by changing the corresponding aptamers, which provide a promising avenue for the detection of small molecules by FP.

Abstract
Aptamers are often compared with antibodies since both types of molecules function as targeting ligands for specific cancer cell recognition. However, aptamers offer several advantages, including small size, facile chemical modification, high chemical stability, low immunogenicity, rapid tissue penetration, and engineering simplicity. Despite these advantages, several crucial factors have delayed their clinical translation, such as concerns over inherent physicochemical stability and safety. Meanwhile, steps have been taken to make aptamer-drug conjugates, or ApDCs, a clinically practical tool. In this review, we highlight the development of ApDCs and discuss how researchers are solving some problems associated with their clinical application for targeted therapy.

Abstract
We have developed a label-free, enzyme-free, modification-free and DNA extraction-free fluorescent aptasensing (LEFA) method for detection of E. coli O157:H7 based on G-quadruplex formation using two ingeniously designed hairpin probes (GHP1 and GHP2). In the presence of E. coli O157:H7, it released the single stranded initiation sequence (IS) resulting in the toehold strand displacement between GHP1 and GHP2, which in turn led to the cyclic reuse of the production of DNA assemblies with numerous G-quadruplex structures and initiation sequences. Then these G-quadruplex structures can be recognized quickly by N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) resulting in significantly enhanced fluorescence. The LEFA method was successfully implemented for detecting E. coli O157:H7 with a detection limit of 66 CFU/mL in pure culture, 10 CFU/mL and 1 CFU/mL after pre-incubation of the milk and tap water for 4 and 8 h, respectively. Moreover, the strategy could distinguish viable E. coli O157:H7 from dead E. coli O157:H7 and other species of pathogen cells. Furthermore, the whole process of the strategy is accomplished within 100 min. The results indicated that the approach may be used to effectively control potential microbial hazards in human health, food safety, and animal husbandry.

Abstract
A key goal of modern medicine is target-specific therapeutic intervention. However, most drugs lack selectivity, resulting in 'off-target' side effects. To address the requirements of 'targeted therapy,' aptamers, which are artificial oligonucleotides, have been used as novel targeting ligands to construct aptamer drug conjugates (ApDC) that can specifically bind to a broad spectrum of targets, including diseased cells. Accordingly, the application of aptamers in targeted drug delivery has attracted broad interest due to their impressive selectivity and affinity, low immunogenicity, easy synthesis with high reproducibility, facile modification, and relatively rapid tissue penetration with no toxicity. Functionally, aptamers themselves can be used as macromolecular drugs, and they are also commonly used in biomarker discovery and targeted drug delivery. In this review, we will highlight the most recent advances in the development of aptamers and aptamer conjugates, and discuss their potential in targeted therapy.

Abstract
A new strategy for sensitive fluorescence polarisation (FP) analysis is proposed which uses aptamer as the receptor and anchor protein modules as the enhancers by including the aptamers in complexes with protein modules. This approach is based on increasing the size differences of bound and unbound fluorophores. The strategy was applied in an ochratoxin A (ОТА) assay with the competitive binding of fluorophore-labelled and free OTA with aptamer-based receptors. We showed that the binding of labelled OTA with aptamer included in complexes with anchors led to higher a FP than binding with free aptamer. This allowed the aptamer concentration to be reduced, thus lowering the limit of detection by a factor of 40, down to 3.6 nM. The assay time was 15 min. To evaluate the applicability of the FP assay with aptamer-anchor complex to real samples, we conducted OTA measurements in spiked white wine. The OTA limit of detection in wine was 2.8 nM (1.1 μg/kg), and the recoveries ranged from 83% to 113%. The study shows that the proposed anchor strategy is efficient for increasing the sensitivity of FP-based aptamer assays.

Abstract
Herein, we design novel fluorescence anisotropy (FA) aptamer sensing platforms dedicated to small molecule detection. The assay strategy relied on enhanced fluctuations of segmental motion dynamics of the aptamer tracer mediated by an unlabelled, partially complementary oligonucleotide. The signal-enhancer oligonucleotide (SEO) essentially served as a free probe fraction revealer. By targeting specific regions of the signalling functional nucleic acid, the SEO binding to the unbound aptamer triggered perturbations of both the internal DNA flexibility and the localized dye environment upon the free probe to duplex structure transition. This potentiating effect determined increased FA variations between the duplex and target bound states of the aptameric probe. FA assay responses were obtained with both pre-structured (adenosine) and unstructured (tyrosinamide) aptamers and with dyes of different photochemical properties (fluorescein and texas red). The multiplexed analysis ability was further demonstrated through the simultaneous multicolour detection of the two small targets. The FA method appears to be especially simple, sensitive and widely applicable.

Hu P, Yang B. Cleavable DNA-protein hybrid molecular beacon: A novel efficient signal translator for sensitive fluorescence anisotropy bioassay. Talanta 2015; 147:276-81. [PMID: 26592607 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2015.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2015] [Revised: 09/30/2015] [Accepted: 10/01/2015] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Due to its unique features such as high sensitivity, homogeneous format, and independence on fluorescent intensity, fluorescence anisotropy (FA) assay has become a hotspot of study in oligonucleotide-based bioassays. However, until now most FA probes require carefully customized structure designs, and thus are neither generalizable for different sensing systems nor effective to obtain sufficient signal response. To address this issue, a cleavable DNA-protein hybrid molecular beacon was successfully engineered for signal amplified FA bioassay, via combining the unique stable structure of molecular beacon and the large molecular mass of streptavidin. Compared with single DNA strand probe or conventional molecular beacon, the DNA-protein hybrid molecular beacon exhibited a much higher FA value, which was potential to obtain high signal-background ratio in sensing process. As proof-of-principle, this novel DNA-protein hybrid molecular beacon was further applied for FA bioassay using DNAzyme-Pb(2+) as a model sensing system. This FA assay approach could selectively detect as low as 0.5nM Pb(2+) in buffer solution, and also be successful for real samples analysis with good recovery values. Compatible with most of oligonucleotide probes' designs and enzyme-based signal amplification strategies, the molecular beacon can serve as a novel signal translator to expand the application prospect of FA technology in various bioassays.

Switch-on fluorescence scheme for antibiotics based on a magnetic composite probe with aptamer and hemin/G-quadruplex coimmobilized nano-Pt-luminol as signal tracer. Talanta 2015; 147:296-301. [PMID: 26592610 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2015.10.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2015] [Revised: 09/28/2015] [Accepted: 10/01/2015] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
A selective and facile fluorescence "switch-on" scheme is developed to detect antibiotics residues in food, using chloramphenicol (CAP) as model, based on a novel magnetic aptamer probe (aptamer-Pt-luminol nanocomposite labeled with hemin/G-quadruplex). Firstly, the composite probe is prepared through the immuno-reactions between the capture beads (anti-dsDNA antibody labeled on magnetic Dynabeads) and the nanotracer (nano-Pt-luminol labeled with double-strand aptamer, as ds-Apt, and hemin/G-quadruplex). When the composite probe is mixed with CAP, the aptamer preferentially reacted with CAP to decompose the double-strand aptamer to ssDNA, which cannot be recognized by the anti-dsDNA antibody on the capture probes. Thus, after magnetic separation, the nanotracer can be released into the supernatant. Because the hemin/G-quadruplex and PtNPs in nanotracer can catalyze luminol-H2O2 system to emit fluorescence. Thus a dual-amplified "switch-on" signal appeared, of which intensity is proportional to the concentration of CAP between 0.001 and 100ng mL(-1) with detection limit of 0.0005ng mL(-1) (S/N=3). Besides, our method has good selectivity and was employed for CAP detection in real milk samples. The results agree well with those from conventional gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The switch-on signal is produced by one-step substitution reaction between aptamer in nanotracer and target. When the analyte is changed, the probe can be refabricated only by changing the corresponding aptamer. Thus, all features above prove our strategy to be a facile, feasible and selective method in antibiotics screening for food safety.
