Abstract
The detection and/or quantification of biomarkers in blood is important for the early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of a variety of diseases and medical conditions. Among the different types of sensors for detecting molecular biomarkers, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and small-molecule drugs, affinity-based electrochemical sensors offer the advantages of high analytical sensitivity and specificity, fast detection times, simple operation, and portability. However, biomolecular detection in whole blood is challenging due to its highly complex matrix, necessitating sample purification (i.e., centrifugation), which involves the use of bulky, expensive equipment and tedious sample-handling procedures. To address these challenges, various strategies have been employed, such as purifying the blood sample directly on the sensor, employing micro-/nanoparticles to enhance the detection signal, and coating the electrode surface with blocking agents to reduce nonspecific binding, to improve the analytical performance of affinity-based electrochemical sensors without requiring sample pre-processing steps or laboratory equipment. In this article, we present an overview of affinity-based electrochemical sensor technologies that employ these strategies for biomolecular detection in whole blood.

Abstract
Although colorectal cancer (CRC) is easy to treat surgically and can be combined with postoperative chemotherapy, its five-year survival rate is still not optimistic. Therefore, developing sensitive, efficient, and compliant detection technology is essential to diagnose CRC at an early stage, providing more opportunities for effective treatment and intervention. Currently, the widely used clinical CRC detection methods include endoscopy, stool examination, imaging modalities, and tumor biomarker detection; among them, blood biomarkers, a noninvasive strategy for CRC screening, have shown significant potential for early diagnosis, prediction, prognosis, and staging of cancer. As shown by recent studies, electrochemical biosensors have attracted extensive attention for the detection of blood biomarkers because of their advantages of being cost-effective and having sound sensitivity, good versatility, high selectivity, and a fast response. Among these, nano-conductive polymer materials, especially the conductive polymer polypyrrole (PPy), have been broadly applied to improve sensing performance due to their excellent electrical properties and the flexibility of their surface properties, as well as their easy preparation and functionalization and good biocompatibility. This review mainly discusses the characteristics of PPy-based biosensors, their synthetic methods, and their application for the detection of CRC biomarkers. Finally, the opportunities and challenges related to the use of PPy-based sensors for diagnosing CRC are also discussed.

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
An Au/GaN photoelectrode was prepared by sputtering 30 nm thick Au film on the surface of n-type gallium nitride (GaN). When the electrode contacts with multilayered molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), photogenerated electrons and photogenerated holes transfer to MoS2 because of the band gap matching of MoS2 and GaN. The presence of Au promotes charge transfer and results in a greater recombination of electrons and holes; by this means, a more significant suppression of photocurrent can be detected. This characteristic has been coupled with the high selectivity of an aptamer and applied to develop a novel photoelectrochemical aptasensor for cancer biomarkers (alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) as a model). The aptamer of AFP was modified on the surface of the Au/GaN photoelectrode by Au-S bonds, which can bind to the target protein with high selectivity. Then, the transfer process of the charge carriers of GaN to MoS2 can be blocked by the target protein so that the suppression of photocurrent is reduced. The difference of the photocurrent in the presence and absence of AFP (ΔI) showed a linear relationship with AFP concentration that ranged from 1.0-150 ng/mL (R2 = 0.9995), and the detection limit was 0.3 ng/mL. The standard addition recovery rates ranged from 85.2 to 91.7%. The method possessed good sensitivity and high selectivity for AFP detection. The developed biosensor can be modified to detect other cancer biomarkers by simply replacing the aptamer used.

Abstract
Micro/nanomotors bring new possibilities for the detection and therapy of diseases related to the blood environment with their unique motion effect. This work reviews the research progress of using micro/nanomotors in the detection and therapy of diseases related to the blood environment. First, we outline the advantages of using micro/nanomotors in blood-related disease detection. To be specific, the motion capability of micro/nanomotors can increase plasma or blood fluid convection and accelerate the interaction between the sample and the capture probe. This allows the effective reduction of the amount of reagents and treatment steps. Therefore, the application of micro/nanomotors significantly improves the analytical performance. Second, we discuss the key challenges and future prospects of micro/nanomotors in the treatment of blood-environment related diseases. It is very important to design a unique treatment plan according to the etiology and specific microenvironment of the disease. The next generation of micro/nanomotors is expected to bring exciting progress to the detection and therapy of blood-environment related diseases.

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. Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of a fluorometric aptamer nanoprobe for AFP assay based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between AFP aptamer labelled with 5-carboxyfluorescein (FAM) and palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs).

Abstract
Based on the concept of the active drug delivery of micro- and nanomotors and the longer cycle time in the blood for drug-loaded tubular particles, it is important to develop novel tubular micromotors that could increase drug loading and achieve more effective treatments in the biomedical field. Here, a novel kind of mesoporous tubular micromotor used to load heparin (Hep) and formed via template-assisted electrochemical deposition is presented. Firstly, the mesoporous tubular micromotors were composed of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), mesoporous silica (MS) and manganese dioxide (MnO2), and were simply fabricated via template-assisted electrochemical growth. Then, the drug Hep was loaded into PEDOT/MS/MnO2via a simple soaking process. Finally, the release process, cytotoxicity, and blood compatibility tests and motion study for these mesoporous tubular micromotors of PEDOT/MS/MnO2-Hep were performed. Results indicated that the micromotors we prepared showed good controlled release of Hep, anticoagulant effects, non-cytotoxicity and autonomous motion ability. The new drug carrier and motion mode will give rise to more potential applications of Hep in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Constant progress in the identification of biomarkers at different molecular levels in samples of different natures, and the need to conduct routine analyses, even in limited-resource settings involving simple and short protocols, are examples of the growing current clinical demands not satisfied by conventional available techniques. In this context, the unique features offered by electrochemical biosensors, including affordability, real-time and reagentless monitoring, simple handling and portability, and versatility, make them especially interesting for adaptation to the increasingly challenging requirements of current clinical and point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. This has allowed the continuous development of strategies with improved performance in the clinical field that were unthinkable just a few years ago. After a brief introduction to the types and characteristics of clinically relevant biomarkers/samples, requirements for their analysis, and currently available methodologies, this review article provides a critical discussion of the most important developments and relevant applications involving electrochemical biosensors reported in the last five years in response to the demands of current diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic actions related to high prevalence and high mortality diseases and disorders. Special attention is paid to the rational design of surface chemistry and the use/modification of state-of-the-art nanomaterials to construct electrochemical bioscaffolds with antifouling properties that can be applied to the single or multiplex determination of biomarkers of accepted or emerging clinical relevance in particularly complex clinical samples, such as undiluted liquid biopsies, whole cells, and paraffin-embedded tissues, which have scarcely been explored using conventional techniques or electrochemical biosensing. Key points guiding future development, challenges to be addressed to further push the limits of electrochemical biosensors towards new challenging applications, and their introduction to the market are also discussed.

Synthesis and antimetastatic activity evaluation of cinnamic acid derivatives containing 1,2,3-triazolic portions. Toxicol In Vitro 2018; 53:1-9. [PMID: 30048736 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2018.07.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2018] [Revised: 06/25/2018] [Accepted: 07/20/2018] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
It is herein described the preparation and evaluation of antimetastatic activity of twenty-six cinnamic acid derivatives containing 1,2,3-triazolic portions. The compounds were prepared using as the key step the Copper(I)-catalyzed azide (A)-alkyne (A) cycloaddition (C) (CuAAC reaction), also known as click reaction, between alkynylated cinnamic acid derivatives and different benzyl azides. The reactions were carried in CH2Cl2/H2O (1:1 v/v) at room temperature, and the triazole derivatives were obtained in yields ranging from 73%99%. Reaction times varied from 5 to 40 min. The identity of the synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR and NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopic techniques. They were then submitted to in vitro bioassays to investigate how they act over metastatic behavior of murine melanoma. The most potent compound, namely 3-(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)propyl cinnamate (9a), showed significant antimetastatic and antiproliferative activities against B16-F10 cells. In addition, gelatin zymography and molecular docking analyses pointed to the fact that this compound has potential to interact with matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and MMP-2, which are directly involved in melanoma progression. Therefore, these findings suggest that cinnamic acid derivatives containing 1,2,3-triazolic portions may have potential for development of novel candidates for controlling malignant metastatic melanoma.

Abstract
Biosensors for proteins have shown attractive advantages compared to traditional techniques in clinical laboratory diagnosis. In virtue of modern fabrication modes and detection techniques, various immunosensing platforms have been reported on basis of the specific recognition between antigen-antibody pairs. In addition to profit from the development of nanotechnology and molecular biology, diverse fabrication and signal amplification strategies have been designed for detection of protein antigens, which has led to great achievements in fast quantitative and simultaneous testing with extremely high sensitivity and specificity. Besides antigens, determination of antibodies also possesses great significance for clinical laboratory diagnosis. In this review, we will categorize recent immunosensors for proteins by different detection techniques. The basic conception of detection techniques, sensing mechanisms, and the relevant signal amplification strategies are introduced. Since antibodies and antigens have an equal position to each other in immunosensing, all biosensing strategies for antigens can be extended to antibodies under appropriate optimizations. Biosensors for antibodies are summarized, focusing on potential applications in clinical laboratory diagnosis, such as a series of biomarkers for infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases, and an evaluation of vaccine immunity. The excellent performances of these biosensors provide a prospective space for future antibody-detection-based disease serodiagnosis.
