Abstract
Highly sensitive detection of low-frequency EGFR-L858R mutation is particularly important in guiding targeted therapy of nonsmall-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). To this end, a ligase chain reaction (LCR)-based electrochemical biosensor (e-LCR) with an inverted sandwich-type architecture was provided by combining a cooperation of lambda exonuclease-RecJf exonuclease (λ-RecJf exo). In this work, by designing a knife-like DNA substrate (an overhang ssDNA part referred to the "knife arm") and introducing the λ-RecJf exo, the unreacted DNA probes in the LCR were specially degraded while only the ligated products were preserved, after which the ligated knife-like DNA products were hybridized with capture probes on the gold electrode surface through the "knife arms", forming the inverted sandwich-type DNA structure and bringing the methylene blue-label close to the electrode surface to engender the electrical signal. Finally, the sensitivity of the e-LCR could be improved by 3 orders of magnitude with the help of the λ-RecJf exo, and due to the mutation recognizing in the ligation site of the employed ligase, this method could detect EGFR-L858R mutation down to 0.01%, along with a linear range of 1 fM-10 pM and a limit detection of 0.8 fM. Further, the developed method could distinguish between L858R positive and negative mutations in cultured cell samples, tumor tissue samples, and plasma samples, whose accuracy was verified by the droplet digital PCR, holding a huge potential in liquid biopsy for precisely guiding individualized-treatment of NSCLC patients with advantages of high sensitivity, low cost, and adaptability to point-of-care testing.

Abstract
DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays a crucial role in various biological processes. Aberrant DNA methylation is closely associated with the onset of diseases, and the specific localization of methylation sites in the genome offers further insight into the connection between methylation and diseases. Currently, there are numerous methods available for site-specific methylation detection. Electrochemical biosensors have garnered significant attention due to their distinct advantages, such as rapidity, simplicity, high sensitivity, low cost, and the potential for miniaturization. In this paper, we present a systematic review of the primary sensing strategies utilized in the past decade for analyzing site-specific methylation and their applications in electrochemical sensors, from a novel perspective focusing on the localization analysis of site-specific methylation. These strategies include bisulfite treatment, restriction endonuclease treatment, other sensing strategies, and deamination without direct bisulfite treatment. We hope that this paper can offer ideas and references for establishing site-specific methylation electrochemical analysis in clinical practice.

Abstract
Neurological damage is the pathological substrate of permanent disability in various neurodegenerative disorders. Early detection of this damage, including its identification and quantification, is critical to preventing the disease's progression in the brain. Tau, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and neurofilament light chain (NfL), as brain protein biomarkers, have the potential to improve diagnostic accuracy, disease monitoring, prognostic assessment, and treatment efficacy. These biomarkers are released into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood proportionally to the degree of neuron and astrocyte damage in different neurological disorders, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, neurodegenerative dementia, and Parkinson's disease. Here, we review how Tau, GFAP, and NfL biomarkers are detected in CSF and blood as crucial diagnostic tools, as well as the levels of these biomarkers used for differentiating a range of neurological diseases and monitoring disease progression. We also discuss a biosensor approach that allows for the real-time detection of multiple biomarkers in various neurodegenerative diseases. This combined detection system of brain protein biomarkers holds significant promise for developing more specific and accurate clinical tools that can identify the type and stage of human neurological diseases with greater precision.

Abstract
5-methylcytosine (5 mC) DNA methylation is a prominent epigenetic modification ubiquitous in the genome. It plays a critical role in the regulation of gene expression, maintenance of genome stability, and disease control. The potential of 5 mC DNA methylation for disease detection, prognostic information, and prediction of response to therapy is enormous. However, the quantification of DNA methylation from clinical samples remains a considerable challenge due to its low abundance (only 1% of total bases). To overcome this challenge, scientists have recently developed various signal amplification strategies to enhance the sensitivity of DNA methylation biosensors. These strategies include isothermal nucleic acid amplification and enzyme-assisted target cycling amplification, among others. This review summarizes the applications, advantages, and limitations of these signal amplification strategies over the past six years (2018-2023). Our goal is to provide new insights into the selection and establishment of DNA methylation analysis. We hope that this review will offer valuable insights to researchers in the field and facilitate further advancements in this area.

Abstract
DNA methylation is closely related to cancer. It is generally accepted that DNA methylation detection is crucial in cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment monitoring. Therefore, there is an urgent demand for developing a simple, rapid, highly sensitive, and highly specific methylation detection method to detect DNA methylation at specific sites quantitatively. In this work, we introduce a DNA methylation detection method based on MutS and methylation-specific PCR, named MutS-based methylation-specific PCR (MB-MSP), which has the advantages of simplicity, speed, high specificity, sensitivity, and broad applicability. Utilizing the MutS's ability to bind mismatched base pairs, we inhibit not only the amplification of unmethylated DNA but also nonspecific primer amplification. We achieved a detection sensitivity of 0.5% for the methylated genes of ACP1, CLEC11A, and SEPT9 by MB-MSP. It has a good linear relationship and a detection time of only 1.5 h. To validate the feasibility of the MB-MSP method in clinical application, we conducted methylation detection on plasma-circulating tumor DNA samples from 10 liver cancer patients and 5 healthy people, achieving a 100% accuracy rate. In conclusion, MB-MSP, as a novel and reliable DNA methylation detection tool, holds significant application value and potential for advancing early cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Key biomarkers such as Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and Neurofilament light chain (NfL) play important roles in the development and progression of many neurological diseases, including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. In these clinical conditions, the underlying biomarker processes are markedly heterogeneous. In this context, robust biomarker discovery is of critical importance for screening, early detection, and monitoring of neurological diseases. The difficulty of directly identifying biochemical processes in the central nervous system (CNS) is challenging. In recent years, biomarkers of CNS inflammatory response have been identified in various body fluids such as blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and tears. Furthermore, biotechnology and nanotechnology have facilitated the development of biosensor platforms capable of real-time detection of multiple biomarkers in clinically relevant samples. Biosensing technology is approaching maturity and will be deployed in communities, at which point screening programs and personalized medicine will become a reality. In this multidisciplinary review, our goal is to highlight clinical and current technological advances in the development of multiplex-based solutions for effective diagnosis and monitoring of neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. The trend in the detection if BDNF and NfL.

Abstract
Gene expression in cells is determined by the epigenetic state of chromatin. Therefore, the study of epigenetic changes is very important to understand the regulatory mechanism of genes at the molecular, cellular, tissue and organ levels. DNA methylation is one of the most studied epigenetic modifications, which plays an important role in maintaining genome stability and ensuring normal growth and development. Studies have shown that methylation levels in bovine primordial germ cells, the rearrangement of methylation during embryonic development and abnormal methylation during placental development are all closely related to their reproductive processes. In addition, the application of bovine male sterility and assisted reproductive technology is also related to DNA methylation. This review introduces the principle, development of detection methods and application conditions of DNA methylation, with emphasis on the relationship between DNA methylation dynamics and bovine spermatogenesis, embryonic development, disease resistance and muscle and fat development, in order to provide theoretical basis for the application of DNA methylation in cattle breeding in the future.

Abstract
Whole blood, as one of the most significant biological fluids, provides critical information for health management and disease monitoring. Over the past 10 years, advances in nanotechnology, microfluidics, and biomarker research have spurred the development of powerful miniaturized diagnostic systems for whole blood testing toward the goal of disease monitoring and treatment. Among the techniques employed for whole-blood diagnostics, electrochemical biosensors, as known to be rapid, sensitive, capable of miniaturization, reagentless and washing free, become a class of emerging technology to achieve the target detection specifically and directly in complex media, e.g., whole blood or even in the living body. Here we are aiming to provide a comprehensive review to summarize advances over the past decade in the development of electrochemical sensors for whole blood analysis. Further, we address the remaining challenges and opportunities to integrate electrochemical sensing platforms.

Abstract
Given the importance of identifying the presence of biomarkers of human diseases in DNA samples, the main objective of this work was to investigate, for the first time, the electro-catalytic oxidation of 7-methyl-guanine (7-mGua) and 5-methyl-cytosine (5-mCyt) on a boron doped diamond electrode pre-treated cathodically (red-BDDE), using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The anodic peak potentials of 7-mGua and 5-mCyt by DPV were at E = 1.04 V and E = 1.37 V at pH = 4.5, indicating excellent peak separation of approximately 330 mV between species. Using DPV, experimental conditions such as supporting electrolyte, pH and influence of interferents were also investigated to develop a sensitive and selective method for individual and simultaneous quantification of these biomarkers. The analytical curves for the simultaneous quantification of 7-mGua and 5-mCyt in the acid medium (pH = 4.5) were: concentration range of 0.50-5.00 μmol L-1 (r = 0.999), detection limit of 0.27 μmol L-1 for 7-mGua; from 3.00 to 25.00 μmol L-1 (r = 0.998), with a detection limit of 1.69 μmol L-1 for 5-mCyt. A new DP voltammetric method for the simultaneous detection and quantification of biomarkers 7-mGua and 5-mCyt using a red-BDDE is proposed.

Abstract
The integration of nanoarchitectonics and hydrogel into conventional biosensing platforms offers the opportunities to design physically and chemically controlled and optimized soft structures with superior biocompatibility, better immobilization of biomolecules, and specific and sensitive biosensor design. The physical and chemical properties of 3D hydrogel structures can be modified by integrating with nanostructures. Such modifications can enhance their responsiveness to mechanical, optical, thermal, magnetic, and electric stimuli, which in turn can enhance the practicality of biosensors in clinical settings. This review describes the synthesis and kinetics of gel networks and exploitation of nanostructure-integrated hydrogels in biosensing. With an emphasis on different integration strategies of hydrogel with nanostructures, this review highlights the importance of hydrogel nanostructures as one of the most favorable candidates for developing ultrasensitive biosensors. Moreover, hydrogel nanoarchitectonics are also portrayed as a promising candidate for fabricating next-generation robust biosensors.

Abstract
The methylation state of a part of the BMP3 gene was detected by our genosensor. This epigenetic biomarker is involved in the biomarker panel of the sDNA test, which is an FDA approved test for colorectal cancer screening. In the present genosensor, polyethyleneimine-stabilized silver nanoparticles (PEI-AgNPs) were used as a non-specific nanolabel for signal generation/amplification and lowering the limit of detection. After immobilization of capture probes and mercaptoethanol molecules on the gold electrode, a thermally treated mixture of the BMP3 targets and reporter probes was introduced to the electrode. Because of the specificity of the reporter probes for fully methylated targets, complete sandwich-like complexes are formed only with them. Therefore, such full-length double-stranded hybrids compared to fully unmethylated targets have more negative charges and can more attract positively charged PEI-AgNPs. For discrimination between methylated and unmethylated targets, electroimpedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry were used for electrode modification monitoring and signal measurement. The sharp and narrow anodic peaks of cyclic voltammograms, which resulted from silver oxidation, were utilized for calibration plot analysis. The genosensor showed a linear response for the target concentration range from 1fM to 100 nM, while the detection limit for methylated and unmethylated target discrimination was 1 fM.

Electrochemical Detection of Global DNA Methylation Using Biologically Assembled Polymer Beads. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:3787.

Abstract
DNA methylation is a cell-type-specific epigenetic marker that is essential for transcriptional regulation, silencing of repetitive DNA and genomic imprinting. It is also responsible for the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cancers. Herein, we present a simple approach for quantifying global DNA methylation in ovarian cancer patient plasma samples based on a new class of biopolymer nanobeads. Our approach utilises the immune capture of target DNA and electrochemical quantification of global DNA methylation level within the targets in a three-step strategy that involves (i) initial preparation of target single-stranded DNA (ss-DNA) from the plasma of the patients' samples, (ii) direct adsorption of polymer nanobeads on the surface of a bare screen-printed gold electrode (SPE-Au) followed by the immobilisation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC)-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) antibody, and (iii) immune capture of target ss-DNA onto the electrode-bound PHB/5mC-HRP antibody conjugates and their subsequent qualification using the hydrogen peroxide/horseradish peroxidase/hydroquinone (H2O2/HRP/HQ) redox cycling system. In the presence of methylated DNA, the enzymatically produced (in situ) metabolites, i.e., benzoquinone (BQ), binds irreversibly to cellular DNA resulting in the unstable formation of DNA adducts and induced oxidative DNA strand breakage. These events reduce the available BQ in the system to support the redox cycling process and sequel DNA saturation on the platform, subsequently causing high Coulombic repulsion between BQ and negatively charged nucleotide strands. Thus, the increase in methylation levels on the electrode surface is inversely proportional to the current response. The method could successfully detect as low as 5% methylation level. In addition, the assay showed good reproducibility (% RSD ≤ 5%) and specificity by analysing various levels of methylation in cell lines and plasma DNA samples from patients with ovarian cancer. We envision that our bioengineered polymer nanobeads with high surface modification versatility could be a useful alternative platform for the electrochemical detection of varying molecular biomarkers.

End-labeling-based electrochemical strategy for detection of adenine methylation in nucleic acid by differential pulse voltammetry. Mikrochim Acta 2021; 188:250.

Abstract
A promising electrochemical strategy for assay of N6-methyladenosine (m6A)/N6-methyladenine (6mA) in RNA/DNA is proposed. The key of this strategy is the end-labeling of nucleic acid, which makes it possible to detect methylation level in unknown sequence. Firstly, the end of m6A-RNA or 6mA-DNA was labeled with sulfhydryl group through T4 polynucleotide kinase (T4 PNK) and then directly assembled on a gold nanoparticle-modified glassy carbon electrode (AuNPs/GCE). Secondly, methylation sites in RNA/DNA were specifically recognized by anti-m6A-antibody, and then, horseradish peroxidase-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG (HRP-IgG) was further conjugated on the antibody. Thirdly, HRP-IgG catalyzed the hydroquinone oxidation reaction to generate amplified current signal which correlates with the amount of m6A/6mA in nucleic acid. This method showed a wide linear range from 0.0001 to 10 nM for m6A-RNA, 0.001 to 100 nM for 6mA-dsDNA, and 0.0001 to 10 nM for 6mA-ssDNA. The method was successfully applied to detection of m6A/6mA in RNA/DNA from HeLa cells and E. coli cells and validation of the decrease of m6A-RNA in HeLa cells after treatment with FTO protein.

Abstract
In this work, we developed a sandwich DNA-immunosensor for quantification of the methylated tumour suppressor gene O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), which is a potential biomarker for brain tumours and breast cancer. The biosensor is based on aminated reduced graphene oxide electrode, which is achieved by ammonium hydroxide chemisorption and anti-5-methylcytosine (anti-5mC) as a methylation bioreceptor. The target single-strand (ss) MGMT oligonucleotide is first recognised by its hybridisation with complementary DNA to form double-stranded (ds) MGMT, which is then captured by anti-5mC on the electrode surface due to the presence of methylation. Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were used to characterise the electrode surface. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques were used for electrochemical measurements. Under optimised conditions, the proposed biosensor is able to quantify a linear range of concentrations of the MGMT gene from 50 fM to 100 pM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 12 fM. The sandwich design facilitates the simultaneous recognition and quantification of DNA methylation, and the amination significantly improves the sensitivity of the biosensor. This biosensor is label-, bisulfite- and PCR-free and has a simple design for cost-efficient production. It can also be tailor-made to detect other methylated genes, which makes it a promising detection platform for DNA methylation-related disease diagnosis and prognosis.

Abstract
Herein, we report the preparation of mesoporous gold (Au)-silver (Ag) alloy films through the electrochemical micelle assembly process and their applications as microRNA (miRNA) sensors. Following electrochemical deposition and subsequent removal of the templates, the polymeric micelles can create uniformly sized mesoporous architectures with high surface areas. The resulting mesoporous Au-Ag alloy films show high current densities (electrocatalytic activities) towards the redox reaction between potassium ferrocyanide and potassium ferricyanide. Following magnetic isolation and purification, the target miRNA is adsorbed directly on the mesoporous Au-Ag film. Electrochemical detection is then enabled by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using the [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- redox system (the faradaic current for the miRNA-adsorbed Au-Ag film decreases compared to the bare film). The films demonstrate great advantages towards miRNA sensing platforms to enhance the detection limit down to attomolar levels of miR-21 (limit of detection (LOD) = 100 aM, s/n = 3). The developed enzymatic amplification-free miniaturized analytical sensor has promising potential for RNA-based diagnosis of diseases.

Diagnostic and Prognostic Characteristics of Circulating Free DNA Methylation Detected by the Electrochemical Method in Malignant Tumors. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13040664.

Abstract
Simple Summary Previous studies have established an electrochemical detection method for the rapid detection of cfDNA (circulating free DNA) methylation and found that this technology might be a potential method for cancer diagnosis. However, the underlying mechanism and its role in the diagnosis and prognosis of malignant tumors are not well-characterized. In present study, we utilized the electrochemical detection method to detect the DNA methylation status by using electron microscopies and infrared spectroscopy and found that DNA with different methylated levels adsorbed to the gold surface differently, which was likely mediated by hydrophobic bonds. In addition, after detection of the cfDNA methylation status from 505 normal individuals, 725 cancer patients before treatment, and 549 patients after treatment, we found that the cfDNA adsorption rate could be used as an indicator for the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of pan-cancer. Our research provides a novel method for the liquid biopsy of cancer for diagnosis and prognosis predictions. Abstract Prior research has established an electrochemical method based on the differential adsorption capacity of gold surfaces with different methylated DNA degrees and found that this method might be valuable for cancer diagnosis by detecting circulating free DNA methylation. However, further investigation on the underlying mechanism and validation of its diagnostic and prognostic values in a large cohort of malignant tumors was limited. We found that DNA with different methylation levels formed particles of diverse sizes on the gold surface. Hydrophobic bonds played a significant role in the binding process of methylated DNA to the gold surface. The detection condition of an adsorption time of 10 min and temperature of 20 °C was optimal. In a large cohort of plasma samples from the patients with different malignant tumors, as well as normal individuals, we found that the electrochemical detection method based on the differential adsorption capacity of methylated DNA degree on a gold surface could be used as a noninvasive tool for malignant tumor diagnosis and prognostic evaluation. The diagnostic efficiency of this method in malignant tumors was even slightly better than that of the current tumor biomarkers widely used in routine clinical practice (circulating free DNA (cfDNA) vs. carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), 0.8131 vs. 0.7191 and cfDNA vs. CA19-9, 0.7687 vs. 0.6693).

Abstract
DNA methylation is considered as a crucial part of epigenetic modifications and a popular
research topic in recent decades. It usually occurs with a methyl group adding to the fifth carbon
atom of cytosine while the base sequence of DNA remains unchanged. DNA methylation has significant
influences on maintaining cell functions, genetic imprinting, embryonic development and
tumorigenesis procedures and hence the analysis of DNA methylation is of great medical significance.
With the development of analytical techniques and further research on DNA methylation,
numerous DNA methylation detection strategies based on biosensing technology have been developed
to fulfill various study requirements. This article reviewed the development of electrochemistry
and optical biosensing analysis of DNA methylation in recent years; in addition, we also reviewed
some recent advances in the detection of DNA methylation using new techniques, such as
nanopore biosensors, and highlighted the key technical and biological challenges involved in these
methods. We hope this paper will provide useful information for the selection and establishment of
analysis of DNA methylation.

Abstract
In recent years, a new group of nanomaterials named nanozymes that exhibit enzyme-mimicking catalytic activity has emerged as a promising alternative to natural enzymes. Nanozymes can address some of the intrinsic limitations of natural enzymes such as high cost, low stability, difficulty in storage, and specific working conditions (i.e., narrow substrate, temperature and pH ranges). Thus, synthesis and applications of hybrid and stimuli-responsive advanced nanozymes could revolutionize the current practice in life sciences and biosensor applications. On the other hand, electrochemical biosensors have long been used as an efficient way for quantitative detection of analytes (biomarkers) of interest. As such, the use of nanozymes in electrochemical biosensors is particularly important to achieve low cost and stable biosensors for prognostics, diagnostics, and therapeutic monitoring of diseases. Herein, we summarize the recent advances in the synthesis and classification of common nanozymes and their application in electrochemical biosensor development. After briefly overviewing the applications of nanozymes in non-electrochemical-based biomolecular sensing systems, we thoroughly discuss the state-of-the-art advances in nanozyme-based electrochemical biosensors, including genosensors, immunosensors, cytosensors and aptasensors. The applications of nanozymes in microfluidic-based assays are also discussed separately. We also highlight the challenges of nanozyme-based electrochemical biosensors and provide some possible strategies to address these limitations. Finally, future perspectives on the development of nanozyme-based electrochemical biosensors for disease biomarker detection are presented. We envisage that standardization of nanozymes and their fabrication process may bring a paradigm shift in biomolecular sensing by fabricating highly specific, multi-enzyme mimicking nanozymes for highly sensitive, selective, and low-biofouling electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
Early detection and effective treatment are crucial to reduce the physical, emotional, and financial pressure exerted by growing cancer burden on individuals, families, communities, and health systems. Currently, it is clear that the accurate analysis of emerging cancer epigenetic and metastatic-related biomarkers at different molecular levels is envisaged as an exceptional solution for early and reliable diagnosis and the improvement of therapy efficiency through personalized treatments. Within this field, electrochemical biosensing has demonstrated to be competitive over other emerging and currently used methodologies for the determination of these biomarkers accomplishing the premises of user-friendly, multiplexing ability, simplicity, reduced costs and decentralized analysis, demanded by clinical oncology, thus priming electrochemical biosensors to spark a diagnostic revolution for cancer prediction and eradication. This review article critically discusses the main characteristics, opportunities and versatility exhibited by electrochemical biosensing, through highlighting representative examples published during the last two years, for the reliable determination of these emerging biomarkers, with great diagnostic, predictive and prognostic potential. Special attention is paid on electrochemical affinity biosensors developed for the single or multiplexed determination of methylation events, non-coding RNAs, ctDNA features and metastasis-related protein biomarkers both in liquid and solid biopsies of cancer patients. The main challenges to which further work must be addressed and the impact of these advances should have in the clinical acceptance of these emerging biomarkers are also discussed which decisively will contribute to understand the molecular basis involved in the epigenetics and metastasis of cancer and to apply more efficient personalized therapies.

Abstract
DNA methylation is involved in the oncogenesis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and could be used for early detection of cancer to increase the chances of cure, but unfortunately diagnosis is usually made at late stages of the disease. In this work we developed genosensors to detect DNA methylation of the MGMT gene in head and neck cancer cell lines. The probe for MGMT promoter methylation was immobilized on gold electrodes modified with 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA) self-assembled monolayers (SAM). Detection was performed with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, with clear distinction between methylated and non-methylated DNA from head and neck cell lines. The genosensor is sensitive with a low detection limit of 0.24 × 10-12 mol L-1. In addition, the cell lines FaDu, JHU28 and SCC25 for the MGMT gene, could be distinguished from the HN13 cell line which has a high degree of MGMT methylation (97%), thus confirming the selectivity. Samples with different percentages of MGMT DNA methylation could be separated in multidimensional projections using the visualization technique interactive document mapping (IDMAP). The genosensor matrix and the immobilization procedures are generic, and can be extended to other DNA methylation biomarkers.

Abstract
The applications of graphene field-effect transistors (FETs) for monitoring DNA hybridization have been widely accepted; however, for evaluating DNA methylation degree, an emerging requirement of epigenetic research, no work has been found due to the difficulties in detecting 5-methylcytosine (5mC) sites along the genomic sequence as well as counting their amount (NmC). Herein, to achieve this, a strategy for exploiting a liquid exfoliated graphene (LEG)-based FET (LEG-FET) as a sensing platform was proposed. First, LEG-FETs were prepared and activated by tetra-4-aminophenyl-porphyrin (TAPP) for anchoring single-strand DNAs (ssDNAs). Second, the 5mC sites in ssDNA were recognized by the specifically absorbed 5mC antibody (5mCab) and transduced to the changed currents (ΔIDS) by LEG-FET according to the integration of the methylation-immuno sensing principle and FET's working mechanism. Briefly, more 5mCab molecules could be captured by more 5mC sites, resulting in larger ΔIDS. The TAPP effects on LEG-FET were analyzed by SEM, Raman, AFM, and XPS characterizations as well as electronic measurements. The validity of this LEG-FET sensing platform for evaluating DNA methylation degree was proven step by step; this included the examinations of the synthesized ssDNAs with the known NmC and real ssDNA samples, whose methylation degrees were pre-determined by the gold-standard method, which is based on tedious bisulphite sequence operations and expensive mass spectrometry technology. Moreover, theoretical explanations were also provided for the sensing mechanism in the proposed DNA methylation analytical components. In conclusion, the positive and linear relations of IDS changing ratio vs. NmC as well as the detection limit of one 5mC site indicate that TAPP-modified LEG-FET can provide an alternative analytical tool to realize fast and economical DNA methylation evaluation.

Abstract
We report two restriction enzyme-based approaches for generating clean locus-specific unmethylated controls for methylation-sensitive high-resolution melting (MS-HRM) analyses. These unmethylated standards are derived from DNA treated with the demethylating agent 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-dc). By using them, we overcome a limitation of 5-Aza-dc treatment – incomplete demethylation at various genomic regions. When 5-Aza-dc-treated DNA is used directly as unmethylated MS-HRM standard, partially demethylated DNA can give false methylation results. MS-HRM assay differentiates between methylated and unmethylated bisulfite-treated DNA based on the different melting profiles of PCR products amplified from them. To estimate test sample methylation levels, test sample melting profiles are compared to those of methylation standards. With our pure unmethylated controls, adequate standards of known methylation levels can be prepared for single-locus MS-HRM.

Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that small non-coding RNAs such as microRNA (miRNA) encapsulated in exosomes represent an important mechanism of communication between the cells. Exosomal miRNAs play an important role in carcinogenesis via enhancing the cell to cell communication and targeting the cell growth molecular pathways which in turn facilitate metastasis in cancers. Despite progressive advances, the current methods for the exosomal miRNA detection mostly rely on labor-intensive sequencing approaches which are often prone to amplification bias and require costly and bulky equipment. Herein, we report an electrochemical approach for the detection of cancer-derived exosomal miRNAs in human serum samples by selectively isolating the target miRNA using magnetic beads pre-functionalized with capture probes and then directly adsorbing the targets onto a gold electrode surface. The level of adsorbed miRNA is detected electrochemically in the presence of an [Fe(CN)6]4-/3- redox system. This method enabled an excellent detection sensitivity of 1.0 pM with a relative standard deviation (%RSD) of <5.5% in cancer cells and serum samples (n = 8) collected from patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC). We believe that our approach could be useful in clinical settings for the quantification of exosomal miRNA in cancer patients.

Abstract
DNA methylation is one of the significant epigenetic modifications involved in mammalian development as well as in the initiation and progression of various diseases like cancer. Over the past few decades, an enormous amount of research has been carried out for the quantification of DNA methylation in the mammalian genome. Earlier, most of these methodologies used bisulfite treatment. However, the low conversion, false reading, longer assay time and complex chemical reaction are the common limitations of this method that hinder their application in routine clinical screening. Thus, as an alternative to bisulfite conversion-based DNA methylation detection, numerous bisulfite-free methods have been proposed. In this regard, electrochemical biosensors have gained much attention in recent years for being highly sensitive yet cost-effective, portable, and simple to operate. On the other hand, biosensors with optical readouts enable direct real time detection of biological molecules and are easily adaptable to multiplexing. Incorporation of electrochemical and optical readouts into bisulfite free DNA methylation analysis is paving the way for the translation of this important biomarker into standard patient care. In this review, we provide a critical overview of recent advances in the development of electrochemical and optical readout based bisulfite free DNA methylation assays.

Abstract
We report a simple colorimetric (naked-eye) and electrochemical method for the rapid, sensitive and specific quantification of global methylation levels using only 25 ng of input DNA. Our approach utilises a three-step strategy; (i) initial adsorption of the extracted, purified and denatured bisulfite-treated DNA on a screen-printed gold electrode (SPE-Au), (ii) immuno-recognition of methylated DNA using a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated methylcytosine (HRP-5mC) antibody and (iii) subsequent colorimetric detection by the enzymatic oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidin (TMB)/H2O2 which generated a blue-coloured product in the presence of methylated DNA and HRP-5mC immunocomplex. As TMB(ox) is electroactive, it also produces detectable amperometric current at +150 mV versus a Ag pseudo-reference electrode (electrochemical detection). The assay could successfully differentiate 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine drug-treated and untreated Jurkat DNA samples. It showed good reproducibility (relative standard deviation (% RSD) = <5%, for n = 3) with fairly good sensitivity (as low as 5% difference in methylation levels) and specificity while analysing various levels of global DNA methylation in synthetic samples and cell lines. The method has also been tested for analysing the methylation level in fresh tissue samples collected from eight patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma. We believe that this assay could be potentially useful as a low-cost alternative for genome-wide DNA methylation analysis in point-of-care applications.

Abstract
In this paper we report on a bisulfite treatment and PCR amplification-free method for sensitive and selective quantifying of global DNA methylation. Our method utilizes a three-step strategy that involves (i) initial isolation and denaturation of global DNA using the standard isolation protocol and direct adsorption onto a bare gold electrode via gold-DNA affinity interaction, (ii) selective interrogation of methylation sites in adsorbed DNA via methylation-specific 5mC antibody, and (iii) subsequent signal enhancement using an electrochemical-enzymatic redox cycling reaction. In the redox cycling reaction, glucose oxidase (GOx) is used as an enzyme label, glucose as a substrate and ruthenium complex as a redox mediator. We initially investigated the enzymatic properties of GOx by varying glucose and ruthenium concentration to delineate the redox cyclic mechanism of our assay. Because of the fast electron transfer by ruthenium (Ru) complex and intrinsic signal amplification from GOx label, this method could detect as low as 5% methylation level in 50 ng of total DNA input. Moreover, the use of methylation-specific 5mC antibody conjugated GOx makes this assay relatively highly selective for DNA methylation analysis. The data obtained from the electrochemical response for different levels of methylation showed excellent interassay reproducibility of RSD (relative standard deviation) < 5% for n = 3. We believe that this inexpensive, rapid, and sensitive assay will find high relevance as an alternative method for DNA methylation analysis both in research and clinical platforms.

Abstract
The aim of the present review paper is to survey the literature related to DNA methylation, and its association with cancer and ageing. The review will outline the key factors, including diet, which modulate DNA methylation. Our rationale for conducting this review is that ageing and diseases, including cancer, are often accompanied by aberrant DNA methylation, a key epigenetic process, which is crucial to the regulation of gene expression. Significantly, it has been observed that with age and certain disease states, DNA methylation status can become disrupted. For instance, a broad array of cancers are associated with promoter-specific hypermethylation and concomitant gene silencing. This review highlights that hypermethylation, and gene silencing, of the EN1 gene promoter, a crucial homeobox gene, has been detected in various forms of cancer. This has led to this region being proposed as a potential biomarker for diseases such as cancer. We conclude the review by describing a recently developed novel electrochemical method that can be used to quantify the level of methylation within the EN1 promoter and emphasise the growing trend in the use of electrochemical techniques for the detection of aberrant DNA methylation.
