Zhu Y, Zhang R, Hu Z, Wu F. B, N co-doped carbon dots as efficient nanozymes for colorimetric and fluorometric dual-mode detection of cholesterol. Talanta 2024; 278:126471. [PMID: 38941812 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
In this work, the B, N co-doped carbon dots (B, N-CDs) were synthesized via facile hydrothermal approach with 6-aminopyridine boronic acid as precursor. In addition to emitting intense blue luminescence when exposed to ultraviolet light, the prepared B, N-CDs displayed remarkable peroxidase-like activity, which could efficiently catalyze the oxidation of 3, 3', 5, 5' -tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to blue ox-TMB in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Furthermore, the fluorescence intensity of B, N-CDs increased gradually upon the addition of H2O2. Since cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) can catalyze the oxidation of cholesterol to form H2O2, the as-prepared B, N-CDs was then used as both colorimetric and fluorometric sensors for the detection of cholesterol with detection limit of 0.87 and 2.31 μM, respectively. Finally, the dual-mode approach based on B, N-CDs was effectively utilized for detecting cholesterol levels in serum samples, proving the potential application of B, N-CDs in the field of biological assay.

The portable stochastic sensor as a screening tool for simultaneous determination of HER-1 and CA 125 - a key factor in the rapid recognition of gastric cancer. Mikrochim Acta 2024; 191:597. [PMID: 39271551 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-024-06674-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024]
Abstract
The significance of HER-1 and CA 125 lies in their ability to guide cancer diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring, improving personalized care and enhancing prognostic accuracy. The utilization of HER-1 and CA 125 as screening biomarkers for the anticipation of early-stage cancer and monitoring cancer progression is expanding due to the invasive and costly nature of present techniques. In this study, a novel stochastic sensor was developed for the simultaneous determination of HER-1 and CA 125 in whole blood, saliva, and gastric tumor tissue samples using a fast, easy, inexpensive, and portable method. The stochastic sensor was prepared by electropolymerization of cysteine on the surface of the Au-TiO2@rGO/SPCE sensor. The Au-TiO2@rGO nanocomposite was synthesized using a simple chemical reduction process. The proposed sensor showed wide linear concentration ranges and very low limits of quantification (LOQ). The concentration ranges were from 3.9 × 10-14 to 3.9 × 10-8 µg mL-1, with a LOQ of 3.9 × 10-14 µg mL-1 for HER-1. For CA 125, the concentration ranges were from 8.3 × 10-14 to 8.3 × 10-10 U mL-1, with a LOQ of 8.3 × 10-14 U mL-1. Both biomarkers exhibit precise discrimination in different biological samples, with recoveries above 96.78% and RSD values below 0.04%. With a confidence level of 99%, the Student t-test revealed that there is no statistically significant difference between the outcomes obtained by using the poly-Cys/Au-TiO2@rGO/SPCE sensor for screening examinations of biological samples. This was determined because the results were not significantly different from one another.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in women worldwide, and its incidence is increasing every year. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical to improve the curability and prognosis of patients. However, existing detection methods often suffer from insufficient sensitivity and specificity, which limits their clinical application. Fortunately, the rapid development of nanotechnology offers new possibilities for diagnosing BC. For example, the unique physicochemical properties of gold nanomaterials (Au NMs), such as fascinating optical properties and quantum size effect, along with excellent biocompatibility and modifiability, enable them to manifest great potential in the field of biosensing, especially in the detection of BC biomarkers. Through fine surface modification and functionalization, Au NMs can accurately bind to specific antibodies, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules, thus achieving sensitive and precise detection of specific biomarkers. Here, we focus on the research progress of Au NMs as a key biosensing vector in BC biomarker detection. From four major perspectives of early diagnosis, prognostic evaluation, risk prediction, and bioimaging applications, we have thoroughly analyzed the broad application of Au NMs in BC biomarker detection and prospectively addressed its possible future trends. We hope this review will provide more comprehensive ideas for future researchers and promote the further development of this field.

Abstract
Cancer antigen 125 (CA125)1 is the most important biological screening indicator used to monitor epithelial ovarian cancers, and it plays a vital role in distinguishing ovarian cancers from benign diseases. Biosensors show great potential in the analysis and detection of disease markers. In this study, we designed electrochemical sensors based on three-dimensional amino-functionalized reduced graphene oxide (3D-rGOF-NH2),2 MgAl layered double hydroxide nanocomposites containing ordered mesoporous carbon (CMK-3),3 and ferrocene carboxylic acids(Fc-COOH)4for the detection of CA125. 3D-rGOF-NH2 possesses good conductivity, a large surface area, and high porosity, enabling more immobilized nanoparticles to be deposited on its surface with excellent stability. CMK-3@Fc@MgAl-LDH nanocomposite was used as a carrier to enhance the immobilization of antibodies and the loading of Fc, conductors to enhance conductivity, and enhancers to gradually amplify the signal of Fc. The surface morphology, elemental composition, and surface groups of the materials were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM),5 transmission electron microscopy (TEM),6 and X-ray diffraction (XRD)7 techniques. The response signal of the electrochemical sensor was measured by DPV. Under the optimal conditions, the electrochemical sensor obtained a linear detection range of 0.01 U/mL-100 U/mL with a detection limit of 0.00417 U/mL.

Cancer Marker Immunosensing through Surface-Enhanced Photoluminescence on Nanostructured Silver Substrates. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:3099.

Abstract
Nanostructured noble metal surfaces enhance the photoluminescence emitted by fluorescent molecules, permitting the development of highly sensitive fluorescence immunoassays. To this end, surfaces with silicon nanowires decorated with silver nanoparticles in the form of dendrites or aggregates were evaluated as substrates for the immunochemical detection of two ovarian cancer indicators, carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4). The substrates were prepared by metal-enhanced chemical etching of silicon wafers to create, in one step, silicon nanowires and silver nanoparticles on top of them. For both analytes, non-competitive immunoassays were developed using pairs of highly specific monoclonal antibodies, one for analyte capture on the substrate and the other for detection. In order to facilitate the identification of the immunocomplexes through a reaction with streptavidin labeled with Rhodamine Red-X, the detection antibodies were biotinylated. An in-house-developed optical set-up was used for photoluminescence signal measurements after assay completion. The detection limits achieved were 2.5 U/mL and 3.12 pM for CA125 and HE4, respectively, with linear dynamic ranges extending up to 500 U/mL for CA125 and up to 500 pM for HE4, covering the concentration ranges of both healthy and ovarian cancer patients. Thus, the proposed method could be implemented for the early diagnosis and/or prognosis and monitoring of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Cancer, an intricate and multifaceted disease, is characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of cells that can lead to serious health complications and ultimately death. Conventional therapeutic strategies mainly target rapidly dividing cancer cells, but often indiscriminately harm healthy cells in the process. As a result, there is a growing interest in exploring novel therapies that are both effective and less toxic to normal cells. Herbs have long been used as natural remedies for various diseases and conditions. Some herbal compounds exhibit potent anti-cancer properties, making them potential candidates for nutraceutical-based treatments. However, despite their promising efficacy, there are considerable limitations in utilizing herbal preparations due to their poor solubility, low bioavailability, rapid metabolism and excretion, as well as potential interference with other medications. Nanotechnology offers a unique platform to overcome these challenges by encapsulating herbal compounds within nanoparticles. This approach not only increases solubility and stability but also enhances the cellular uptake of nutraceuticals, allowing for controlled and targeted delivery of therapeutic agents directly at tumor sites. By harnessing the power of nanotechnology-enabled therapy, this new frontier in cancer treatment presents an opportunity to minimize toxicity while maximizing efficacy. In conclusion, this manuscript provides compelling evidence for integrating nanotechnology with nutraceuticals derived from herbal sources to optimize cancer therapy outcomes. We explore the roadblocks associated with traditional herbal treatments and demonstrate how nanotechnology can help circumvent these issues, paving the way for safer and more effective cancer interventions in future oncological practice.

Abstract
A portable colorimetric aptasensor was constructed based on the dual catalytic performance of CeO2 nanozyme to determine carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125). Firstly, CeO2 nanozyme was synthesized by calcination and ultrasonically dispersed in a macroporous silica foam (MSF) to form CeO2@MSF. Then the aptamer of CA125 (apt) and complementary DNA (c-DNA) were successively assembled on the CeO2@MSF to construct a CeO2@MSF/apt/c-DNA colorimetric aptasensor, which exhibited excellent oxidase-mimic performance and phosphatase-mimic activity simultaneously. In the presence of CA125, the apt specifically binds to target CA125, and the single-strand c-DNA leaves the CeO2@MSF/apt surface, which is catalytically hydrolyzed by exonuclease I. The produced phosphate ions inhibit the phosphatase-mimic activity of CeO2 nanozyme. Thus, the absorbance at 652 nm of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine solution containing ascorbic acid-2-phosphate increases with the concentration of CA125. The response is linearly related to the logarithm of CA125 concentration from 1.0 to 10.0 U/mL under optimal experimental conditions. Based on this, the constructed colorimetric aptasensor has a high sensitivity, good selectivity, and high accuracy for CA125 determination in real human serum sample.

Abstract
Lipid-based polymeric nanoparticles are the highly popular carrier systems for cancer drug therapy. But presently, detailed investigations have revealed their flaws as drug delivery carriers. Lipid polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LPHNPs) are advanced core-shell nanoconstructs with a polymeric core region enclosed by a lipidic layer, presumed to be derived from both liposomes and polymeric nanounits. This unique concept is of utmost importance as a combinable drug delivery platform in oncology due to its dual structured character. To add advantage and restrict one's limitation by other, LPHNPs have been designed so to gain number of advantages such as stability, high loading of cargo, increased biocompatibility, rate-limiting controlled release, and elevated drug half-lives as well as therapeutic effectiveness while minimizing their drawbacks. The outer shell, in particular, can be functionalized in a variety of ways with stimuli-responsive moieties and ligands to provide intelligent holding and for active targeting of antineoplastic medicines, transport of genes, and theragnostic. This review comprehensively provides insight into recent substantial advancements in developing strategies for treating various cancer using LPHNPs. The bioactivity assessment factors have also been highlighted with a discussion of LPHNPs future clinical prospects.

Abstract
Due to the presence of various autofluorescent compounds in biological samples like serum and the photobleaching of organic fluorophores, fluorescence sensing has limited practical applicability. This study describes the development of an improved ratiometric fluorescence assay to determine the nucleocapsid protein (N protein), one of the most conserved biomarkers of Covid-19 in spiked and serum samples using highly stable buffer-based near IR-dual emission carbon dots (CDs) encapsulated into the cavities of cleavable silica nanocapsule (SNCs) nanocomposite. The cavities of cleavable silica nanocapsules (SNCs) and the formed core-shell CDs@ SNCs were used as a superior reservoir of fluorescent markers produced by cohydrolyzing tetraethyl orthosilicate and diiminosilane linker, which held hundreds of CDs in silica shell frameworks. The SiO2 nanocomposite was modified with an N protein antibody that specifically paired to the receptor binding region of the Cov-19 spike protein subunit. CDs were taken out of SNCs by NaBH4 reduction, and the released CDs exhibited dual emission at 475 and 675 nm when excited at 400 nm. Ratiometric detection is completed over a binding-induced, concentration-dependent immuno-affinity of the N protein that drives the fluorescence quenching phenomenon between the CDs as fluorophore and the AuNPs as quencher. As the N protein concentration increased, the intensity of the red emission (675 nm) dropped, whereas the intensity of the green emission (475 nm) already remained constant, which is due to sandwich immunoassays of CDs around AuNPs. Using the exceptional fluorescent characteristics of CDs and the high selectivity of nanocomposite functionalized with N-protein antibody, the developed assay efficiently eliminates the autofluorescence background interference of serum samples. The fluorescence ratio (I475/I675) provides a limit of detection of 2 pg mL-1 over a linear range of 0.01 to 5 ng mL-1 and exhibits an amplified sensitivity of 54 times compared to conventional immunoassay using CDs as fluorescent labels. With one-step signal amplification and requiring small sample quantities (only 20 μL), this sensing platform can be effectively used for the accurate detection of N protein, and no cross-reactivity is detected in the presence of different interfering agents.

Abstract
Utilizing the photothermal effect to activate enzyme activity, realize signal conversion and amplification show promising prospects in biosensing. Herein, a pressure-colorimetric multi-mode bio-sensor was proposed through the multiple rolling signal amplification strategy of photothermal control. Under NIR light radiation, the Nb2C MXene labeled photothermal probe caused notable temperature elevation on a multi-functional signal conversion paper (MSCP), leading to decomposition of thermal responsive element and in-situ formation of Nb2C MXene/Ag-Sx hybrid. The generation of Nb2C MXene/Ag-Sx hybrid accompanied with valid color change from pale yellow to dark brown on MSCP. Moreover, the Ag-Sx as a signal amplification element enhanced the NIR light absorption to further improve the photothermal effect of Nb2C MXene/Ag-Sx thereby induce cyclic in situ production of Nb2C MXene/Ag-Sx hybrid with rolling enhanced photothermal effect. Subsequently, the continuously enhanced photothermal effect rolling activated catalase-like activity of Nb2C MXene/Ag-Sx, which accelerated the decomposition of H2O2 and promoted the pressure elevation. Therefore, the rolling-enhanced photothermal effect and rolling activated catalase-like activity of Nb2C MXene/Ag-Sx considerately amplified the pressure and color change. Making full use of multi-signal readout conversion and rolling signal amplification, accurate results can be obtained in a short time, whether in the laboratory or in the patient's homes.

Abstract
A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptamer biosensor with high sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of tumor biomarker carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) was constructed, and a strategy of triple amplification of signals was proposed using an exonuclease cyclic cleavage aptamer, combined with rolling ring amplification technologies, generating multi-branched dendritic double-stranded DNA to load a large number of probes through "strand self-growth". The double-stranded DNA, which is abbreviated as CP/CA dsDNA, formed by hybridizing the single strand of capture DNA (CP DNA) with the single strand DNA of the CA125 aptamer (CA Apt) was modified on Fe3O4@Au. When CA125 was added, CP/CA dsDNA was unwound, and CA125 specifically combined with CA Apt to form a protein-aptamer complex, leaving only CP DNA on the surface of Fe3O4@Au. RecJf exonuclease cleaved the aptamer in the protein-aptamer complex and released CA125, which recombined with other CA125 aptamers, to form a cycle that produces more CP DNA on Fe3O4@Au. Three ssDNA (H1, H2, and H3) were introduced and hybridized with CP DNA to form a dsDNA with a "+" configuration structure. Then phi29 DNA polymerase, T4 DNA ligase, deoxy-ribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) and padlock probes were added to form a large number of complementary strands of padlock probes (CS padlock probes) by rolling cyclic amplification. CS padlock probes were linked to the "+" type dsDNA; then ssDNA H4 was added and hybridized with the CS padlock probe to form multi-branched dendritic dsDNA. A large number of tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II) probes were embedded in the double strands, resulting in an extremely strong ECL signal in the presence of the co-reactant tri-n-propylamine (TPA). There is a linear relationship between the ECL signals and CA125 concentrations in the range of 1.0 × 10-15-1.0 × 10-8 mg mL-1, and the detection limit was 2.38 × 10-16 mg mL-1. It has been used for the determination of CA125 in serum samples.

Anti-CD44 antibodies grafted immunoaffinity Fe 3O 4@MnO 2 nanozymes with highly oxidase-like catalytic activity for specific detection of triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells.

Abstract
Cell-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (CELISA) is extensively applied for cancer diagnosis and screening because of its simple operation, high sensitivity, and intuitive color change. However, the unstable horseradish peroxidase (HRP), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and non-specificity have led to a high false negative rate, which limits its application. In this study, we have developed an innovative immunoaffinity nanozyme aided CELISA based on anti-CD44 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) bioconjugated manganese dioxide-modified magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4@MnO2 NPs) for the specific detection of triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. The CD44FM nanozymes were fabricated to replace unstable HRP and H2O2 to counteract possible negative effects in conventional CELISA. Results suggested that CD44FM nanozymes displayed remarkable oxidase-like activities over an extensive pH and temperature range. The bioconjugation of CD44 mAbs enabled CD44FM nanozymes to enter MDA-MB-231 cells selectively via over-expressed CD44 antigens on the membrane surface of these cells, and then catalyzed oxidation of the chromogenic substrate TMB, further achieving specific detection of these cells. Additionally, this study exhibited high sensitivity and low detection limit for MDA-MB-231 cells with a quantitation range of just 186 cells. To sum up, this report developed a simple, specific and sensitive assay platform based on CD44FM nanozymes, which could provide a promising strategy for targeted diagnosis and screening of breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynaecological malignancy. Damage specific DNA-binding protein 1 (DDB1) functions in nucleotide-excision repair and has been reported to be involved in cancer development. In this study, we aimed to determine the expression levels of DDB1 and their association with the clinical outcomes of patients with ovarian cancer. METHODS Tissue arrays were performed on 54 epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) samples. Immunohistochemistry was performed to determine DDB1 expression. DDB1 expression levels among different EOC subtypes were analysed via one-way analysis of variance using SPSS Statistics 19.0. Correlation between DDB1 expression and chemotherapy course/progression-free survival (PFS) of patients was determined via Kaplan-Meier survival analysis using GraphPad Prism 5. Moreover, knockdown of DDB1 in ovarian cancer cells ES2 and OVCAR3 was used to preliminarily validate the role of DDB1. RESULTS DDB1 was detected in the cytoplasm, especially in the nucleus, of all subtypes of EOC. However, DDB1 expression levels were significantly different between clear cell carcinoma and low-grade serous carcinoma (P = 0.022) and clear cell carcinoma and endometrioid cancer (P = 0.016). In addition, DDB1 expression was not significantly correlated with chemotherapy course (P = 0.433) or PFS (P = 0.566). High expression levels of DDB1 were correlated with significantly worse overall survival (P = 0.017) in patients with EOC. In addition, DDB1 knockdown in ovarian cancer cells decreased their proliferation in vitro. CONCLUSION Our results revealed that DDB1 expression is heterogeneous in ovarian cancer, suggesting its use as a potential biomarker for poor survival in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Significant progress in nanotechnology has enormously contributed to the design and development of innovative products that have transformed societal challenges related to energy, information technology, the environment, and health. A large portion of the nanomaterials developed for such applications is currently highly dependent on energy-intensive manufacturing processes and non-renewable resources. In addition, there is a considerable lag between the rapid growth in the innovation/discovery of such unsustainable nanomaterials and their effects on the environment, human health, and climate in the long term. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design nanomaterials sustainably using renewable and natural resources with minimal impact on society. Integrating sustainability with nanotechnology can support the manufacturing of sustainable nanomaterials with optimized performance. This short review discusses challenges and a framework for designing high-performance sustainable nanomaterials. We briefly summarize the recent advances in producing sustainable nanomaterials from sustainable and natural resources and their use for various biomedical applications such as biosensing, bioimaging, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. Additionally, we provide future perspectives into the design guidelines for fabricating high-performance sustainable nanomaterials for medical applications.

Abstract
Conventional liquid crystal (LC)-based biosensors utilize predominantly thermotropic LCs as the signal-transducing media, which are less environmentally sustainable compared with lyotropic counterparts. In this study, the nematic phase of the anionic azo dye sunset yellow (SSY), a type of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs), was employed in the optical and electrical biosensing of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and the cancer biomarker CA125. The optical response observed under a polarizing optical microscope was quantified by image analysis, taking advantage of the specific absorption of SSY. The electrical response derived from the dielectric spectra of SSY provided a new alternative for quantitative bioassay based on nematic LCLCs. The limit of detection (LOD) of the optical and electrical protein assay was ∼10-11- and ∼10-10-g/ml BSA, respectively, whereas that of the optical and electrical immunoassay was 5.97 × 10-11 and 6.02 × 10-12 g/ml for CA125, respectively. Moreover, real-time monitoring and kinetic analysis, which are hardly achievable for the hydrophobic thermotropic LCs, were demonstrated by dispersing CA125 in nematic SSY and subsequently recording the optical response over time during the specific binding between CA125 and the immobilized anti-CA125 antibody. Results from this study further the potential of nematic LCLCs in biosensing, especially in dielectric and real-time detection.

Abstract
The luminescent carbon dots with peroxidase mimicking property had attracted considerable attention in biomedical field. In this work, iron-doped carbon dots (Fe-CDs) were prepared by one-pot hydrothermal method with 5, 10, 15, 20-tetra (4-borate phenyl)-21H, 23H-porphyrin Fe (II) (Fe-TBPP) as precursor. The obtained Fe-CDs emitted intense blue luminescence under ultraviolet light irradiation. Moreover, the Fe-CDs exhibited remarkable peroxidase mimicking property, which can efficiently catalyze the oxidation of 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into blue ox-TMB in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). More importantly, the emission of Fe-CDs could be gradually quenched with the addition of H2O2. Based on these phenomena, a new optical dual-mode (colorimetric and fluorometric) method for the detection of H2O2 and glucose was successfully established. The detection limits of glucose were calculated to be 3.86 and 7.27 μM (S/N = 3) respectively based on the colorimetric and fluorometric methods. Furthermore, we combined this dual-mode detection method with smartphone imaging. The colorimetric and fluorescent images were collected by recognition software of smartphone, which were then transformed into the corresponding HSL values for quantitative determination of glucose. Finally, the dual-mode approach based on Fe-CDs was used for the detection of glucose content in human serum, demonstrating the potential application of carbon dots in the biological area.

Runprapan N, Wang FM, Ramar A, Yuan CC. Role of Defects of Carbon Nanomaterials in the Detection of Ovarian Cancer Cells in Label-Free Electrochemical Immunosensors. SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 23:1131. [PMID: 36772172 PMCID: PMC9919683 DOI: 10.3390/s23031131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Developing label-free immunosensors to detect ovarian cancer (OC) by cancer antigen (CA125) is essential to improving diagnosis and protecting women from life-threatening diseases. Four types of carbon nanomaterials, such as multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), vapor-grown carbon fiber (VGCFs), graphite KS4, and carbon black super P (SP), have been treated with acids to prepare a carbon nanomaterial/gold (Au) nanocomposite. The AuNPs@carbon nanocomposite was electrochemically deposited on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to serve as a substrate to fabricate a label-free immunosensor for the detection of CA125. Among the four AuNPs@carbon composite, the AuNPs@MWCNTs-based sensor exhibited a high sensitivity of 0.001 µg/mL for the biomarker CA125 through the square wave voltammetry (SWV) technique. The high conductivity and surface area of MWCNTs supported the immobilization of AuNPs. Moreover, the carboxylic (COO-) functional groups in MWCNT improved to a higher quantity after the acid treatment, which served as an excellent support for the fabrication of electrochemical biosensors. The present method aims to explore an environmentally friendly synthesis of a layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly of AuNPs@carbon nanomaterials electrochemical immunoassay to CA125 in a clinical diagnosis at a low cost and proved feasible for point-of-care diagnosis.

Abstract
A triple-amplified and ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor for CA125 was designed based on hemin-graphene/SH-β-cyclodextrin@PdPt nanoflower (H-Gr/SH-β-CD@PdPtNF) composites and an exonuclease I (Exo I)-assisted strategy. In the nanocomposite, hemin acts as an internal reference signal owing to the reversible heminox/heminred pair. PdPtNFs can significantly improve the electron transfer rate. SH-β-CD can efficiently enrich quercetin probes through host-guest recognition and increase the second indicator signal. In the presence of CA125, due to the specific binding between the aptamer and CA125, the conformational change of dsDNA (designed by the CA125 aptamer and its complementary DNA) results in the release of quercetin embedded in dsDNA. Subsequently, the free quercetin and DNA fragments are enriched on the H-Gr/SH-β-CD@PdPtNF-modified electrode. Thus, an enhanced oxidation peak from quercetin (IQ) and a reduced peak from hemin (Ihemin) can indicate the same biological identification event. In addition, the recycling amplification of CA125 by Exo I can effectively assist the increase of the quercetin signal. The value of IQ/Ihemin is linear with the concentration of CA125 in the range from 6.0 × 10-4 to 1.0 × 103 ng/mL, and the limit of detection is 1.4 × 10-4 ng/mL. The recovery of CA125 in human blood serum samples was from 99.2 to 104.4%. The proposed sensor is sensitive and reliable, which provides an avenue for the development of triple amplification and ratiometric signal strategies for detecting tumor markers in clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Nowadays, diagnosing early-stage cancers can be vital for saving patients and dramatically decreases mortality rates. Therefore, specificity and sensitivity in the detection of cancer antigens should be elaborately ensured. Some early-stage cancers can be diagnosed via detecting the cancer antigen CA-125, such as ovarian cancer, and required treatments can be applied more efficiently. Thus, detection of CA-125 by employing various optical or electrochemical biosensors is a preliminary and crucial step to treating cancers. In this review, a diverse range of optical and electrochemical means of detecting CA-125 are reviewed. Furthermore, an applicable comparison of their performance and sensitivity is provided, several commercial detection kits are investigated, and their applications are compared and discussed to determine whether they are applicable and accurate enough.

Abstract
Recently, carbon dots (CDs) have exhibited promising applications in the fluorescence detection of various ions and biomolecules. In this work, one kind of nitrogen-doped CDs (N-CDs) with high fluorescence intensity was synthesized, characterized by transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared, UV-vis absorption spectra, and fluorescence spectra. The results show that the spherical and uniform N-CDs (quantum yield: 60.2%) have remarkable fluorescence properties and photostability, which makes N-CDs can be utilized as an 'on-off-on' sensor for Hg2+and glutathione (GSH). In addition, the pH-sensitive behavior of N-CDs makes it also applicable to H+detection under acid conditions (pKa = 3.53). The linear range of the 'turn-off' sensor detecting Hg2+was 0.014-50μM, with a 0.014μM limit of detection (LOD). GSH was detected by the fluorescence 'turn-on' method with a linear range of 0.125-60μM and a LOD of 0.125μM. The outstanding performance of N-CDs makes it potential applications in ecological pollution and biomolecule visualization monitoring.

Abstract
Bone defect repair is a continual and complicated process driven by a variety of variables. Because of its bright multicolor luminescence, superior biocompatibility, water dispersibility, and simplicity of synthesis from diverse carbon sources, carbon dots (CDs) have received a lot of interest. It has a broad variety of potential biological uses, including bone defect repair, spinal cord injury, and wound healing. Materials including CDs as the matrix or major component have shown considerable benefits in enabling bone defect healing in recent years. By altering the carbon dots or mixing them with other wound healing-promoting agents or materials, the repair effect may be boosted even further. The report also shows and discusses the use of CDs to heal bone abnormalities. The study first presents the fundamental features of CDs in bone defect healing, then provides CDs manufacturing techniques that should be employed in bone defect repair, and lastly examines their development in the area of bioengineering, particularly in bone defect repair. In this work, we look at how carbon dots and their alteration products may help with bone defect healing by being antibacterial, anti-infective, osteogenic differentiation-promoting, and gene-regulating.

Abstract
The green synthesis of fluorescent carbon dots from biomass is critical for their sustainable application. Herein, using wheat straw as a single precursor, carbon dots (CDs) were prepared through a one-step carbonization process, and the obtained CDs have intense blue luminescence and excitation-independent photoluminescent behavior. The solution of CDs shows good biocompatibility, and low cytotoxicity successfully used as hopeful bioimaging and biosensing probe for Cu2+ in HepG2 cells and zebrafish. Based on CDs, boron-doped carbon dots with IPA shells (CDs@IPA) can be obtained by doping boron element and isophthalic acid (IPA) coating. CDs@IPA irradiated with different wavelength ultraviolet lamps shows different solid fluorescence, while turning off the ultraviolet lamp can produce green visible room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) to the naked eyes for 5 s. The two kinds of wheat straw-based carbon dots have bifunctional luminescence properties and can be used to detect Cu2+ and serve as RTP anti-counterfeiting signs to ensure information security.

Abstract
In this work, carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal method using citric acid and ethylene diamine, and covalently functionalized with antibodies for the sensing of progesterone hormone. The structural and morphological analysis reveals that the synthesized CDs are of average size (diameter 8-10 nm) and the surface functionalities are confirmed by XPS, XRD and FT-IR. Further graphene oxide (GO) is used as a quencher due to the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism, whereas the presence of the analyte progesterone turns on the fluorescence because of displacement of GO from the surface of CDs effectively inhibiting FRET efficiency due to the increased distance between donor and acceptor moieties. The linear curve is obtained with different progesterone concentrations with 13.8 nM detection limits (R2 = 0.974). The proposed optical method demonstrated high selectivity performance in the presence of structurally resembling interfering compounds. The PL intensity increased linearly with the increased progesterone concentration range (10-900 nM) under the optimal experimental parameters. The developed level-free immunosensor has emerged as a potential platform for simplified progesterone analysis due to the high selectivity performance and good recovery in different samples of spiked water.

Abstract
Owing to the outstanding physical properties of graphene, its biosensing applications implemented by the terahertz metasurface are widely concerned and studied. Here, we present a novel design of the graphene metasurface, which consists of an individual graphene ring and an H-shaped graphene structure. The graphene metasurface exhibits a dual-resonance response, whose resonance frequency strongly varies with the geometrical parameters of the proposed metasurface, the carrier density of graphene, and the analyte composition. The transparency window, including width and position, can be artificially controlled by adjusting the geometrical parameters or the Fermi energy. Furthermore, the sensing parameters of the graphene metasurface for cancerous and normal cells are investigated, focusing on two factors, namely cell quantity and position on the metasurface. The simulated results clearly show that the theoretical sensitivity, figure of merit, and quantity of the graphene metasurface for breast cells reach 1.21 THz/RIU, 2.75 RIU-1, and 2.43, respectively. Our findings may open up new avenues for promising applications in the diagnosis of cancers.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) have many advantages, such as tunable photoluminescence, large two-photon absorption cross-sections, easy functionalization, low toxicity, chemical inertness, good dispersion, and biocompatibility. Halogen doping further improves the optical and physicochemical properties of CDs, extending their applications in fluorescence sensors, biomedicine, photocatalysis, anti-counterfeiting encryption, and light-emitting diodes. This review briefly describes the preparation of CDs via the "top-down" and "bottom-up" approaches and discusses the preparation methods and applications of halogen (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine)-doped CDs. The main challenges of CDs in the future are the elucidation of the luminescence mechanism, fine doping with elements (proportion, position, etc.), and their incorporation in practical devices.

One-pot hydrothermal synthesis of Si-doped carbon quantum dots with up-conversion fluorescence as fluorescent probes for dual-readout detection of berberine hydrochloride. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 275:121139. [PMID: 35313173 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.121139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2021] [Revised: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Here, the high fluorescent silicon-doped carbon quantum dots (Si-CQDs) were prepared by a facile and one-pot hydrothermal assay using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane as the carbon and silicon source. The prepared Si-CQDs exhibit favorable water-soluble, high-temperature resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, high ionic strength resistance, high photostability, film-forming ability and solid-state fluorescence. Compared to other Si-CQDs that have been reported, the prepared Si-CQDs show unique up-conversion fluorescence. Furthermore, it is found that berberine hydrochloride (BH) can effectively quench the down- and up-conversion fluorescence of the Si-CQDs, making it can be used as a highly sensitive and specific probe for BH dual-mode sensing. Meanwhile, the linear range of down-conversion fluorescence detection for BH is 0.5-30.0 µmol/L with a limit of detection (LOD) of 50 nmol/L, and the linear range of up-conversion fluorescence assay for BH is 0-25.0 µmol/L. The mechanism of down-conversion fluorescence quenching by BH was investigated through a series of studies. The results show the quenching mechanism is the inner filter effect (IFE). Moreover, this proposed strategy has been well used to analyze BH in urine samples with satisfactory results.

A label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on a gold-vertical graphene/TiO 2 nanotube electrode for CA125 detection in oxidation/reduction dual channels. Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:257. [PMID: 35701556 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-022-05332-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
A label-free immunosensor was constructed in oxidation and reduction dual channel mode for the trace detection of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) in serum. The gold-vertical graphene/titanium dioxide (Au-VG/TiO2) electrode was used as the signal-amplification platform, and cytosine and dopamine were used as probes in the oxidation and reduction channels, respectively. VG nanosheets were synthesized on a TiO2 nanotube array via chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and Au nanoparticles were deeply embedded on the surface and in the root of the VG nanosheets via electrodeposition. The CA125 antibody was then directly immobilized onto the electrode surface, benefitting from its natural affinity for Au nanoparticles. In the oxidation and reduction channels the CA125 antibody-Au-VG/TiO2 immune electrode had the same response concentration range (0.01-1000 mU∙mL-1) for the determination of the CA125 antigen. However, the oxidation channel had a higher sensitivity (14.82 μA•(log(mU•mL-1))-1 at a working potential of ~ 1.25 V vs. SCE), lower detection limit (0.0001 mU∙mL-1), higher stability, and lower performance deviation than the reduction channel. This immunosensor was successfully used for CA125 detection in human serum. The recoveries of spiked serum samples ranged from 99.8 ± 0.5 to 100 ± 0.4%. The study on the difference in the sensing performance between oxidation and reduction channels provides a preliminary experimental reference for exploring dual-channel synchronous detection immunosensors and verifying the accuracy of the assay based on dual-channel data, which will promote the development of reliable electrochemical immunosensor technology.

Graphene Quantum Dots and Phthalocyanines Turn-OFF-ON Photoluminescence Nanosensor for ds-DNA. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12111892.

Abstract
Supramolecular hybrids of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and phthalocyanine (Pc) dyes were studied as turn-OFF-ON photoluminescence nanosensors for detection of ds-DNA. Pcs with four (Pc4) and eight (Pc8) positive charges were selected to interact with negatively charged GQDs. The photoluminescence of the GQDs was quenched upon interaction with the Pcs, due to the formation of non-emissive complexes. In the presence of ds-DNA, the Pcs interacted preferentially with the negatively charged ds-DNA, lifting the quenching effect over the photoluminescence of the GQDs and restoring their emission intensity. The best performance as a sensor of ds-DNA was registered for the GQD-Pc8, with a limit of detection (LOD) in the picomolar range. The LOD for GQD-Pc8 was more than one order of magnitude lower and its sensitivity was about a factor of three higher than that of the analogue GQD-Pc4 nanosensor. The sensitivity and selectivity of this simple GQD-Pc8 nanosensor is comparable to those of the more sophisticated carbon-based nanosensors for DNA reported previously.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) provide distinctive advantages of strong fluorescence, good photostability, high water solubility, and outstanding biocompatibility, and thus are widely exploited as potential imaging agents for in vitro and in vivo bioimaging. Imaging is absolutely necessary when discovering the structure and function of cells, detecting biomarkers in diagnosis, tracking the progress of ongoing disease, treating various tumors, and monitoring therapeutic efficacy, making it an important approach in modern biomedicine. Numerous investigations of CDs have been intensively studied for utilization in bioimaging-supported medical sciences. However, there is still no article highlighting the potential importance of CD-based bioimaging to support various biomedical applications. Herein, we summarize the development of CDs as fluorescence (FL) nanoprobes with different FL colors for potential bioimaging-based applications in living cells, tissue, and organisms, including the bioimaging of various cell types and targets, bioimaging-supported sensing of metal ions and biomolecules, and FL imaging-guided tumor therapy. Current CD-based microscopic techniques and their advantages are also highlighted. This review discusses the significance of advanced CD-supported imaging-based in vitro and in vivo investigations, suggests the potential of CD-based imaging for biomedicine, and encourages the effective selection and development of superior probes and platforms for further biomedical applications.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is among the leading causes of gynecological cancer-related mortality worldwide. Early and accurate diagnosis and an effective treatment strategy are the two primary means of improving the prognosis of patients with ovarian cancer. The development of targeted nanomaterials provides a potentially efficient strategy for ovarian cancer theranostics. Aptamer nanomaterials have emerged as promising nanoplatforms for accurate ovarian cancer diagnosis by recognizing relevant biomarkers in the serum and/or on the surface of tumor cells, as well as for effective ovarian cancer inhibition via target protein blockade on tumor cells and targeted delivery of various therapeutic agents. In this review, we summarize recent advances in aptamer nanomaterials as targeted theranostic platforms for ovarian cancer and discusses the challenges and opportunities for their clinical application. The information presented in this review represents a valuable reference for creation of a new generation of aptamer nanomaterials for use in the precise detection and treatment of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Gynaecological cancers continue to present a significant health burden upon the health of the global female population. This deficit is most prominent with ovarian cancer which possesses the lowest survival rate compared to all other cancers occurring within this anatomical region, with an annual UK-mortality of 7,300. The poor tolerability and selectively of the treatment options that are currently available is likely to have contributed to this high mortality rate thus, demonstrating the need for the development of enhanced therapeutic approaches. Aptamer technology would involve the engineering of specifically sequenced oligonucleotide chains, which bind to macromolecular targets with a high degree of affinity and selectively. Recent in-vitro studies conducted upon the clinical utility of this technique have supported its superiority in targeting individual therapeutic drug targets compared to various other targeting moieties currently within therapeutic use such as, monoclonal antibodies. For this reason, the employment of this technique is likely to be favourable in reducing the incidence of non-specific, chemotherapy-associated adverse effects. Kisspeptin is a naturally expressed polypeptide with an established role in the development of the reproductive system and other proposed roles in influencing the ability of ovarian cancer growths to exhibit the metastasis hallmark. This distinctive feature would indicate the potential for the manipulation of this pathway through the application of aptamer structures in developing a novel prophylactic strategy and improve the long-term outcome for ovarian cancer patients.

Abstract
Background MicroRNAs have short sequences of 20 ~ 25-nucleotides which are similar among family members and play crucial regulatory roles in numerous biological processes, such as in cell development, metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Results We reported a strategy for the construction of a dual-emission fluorescent sensor using carbon dots (CDs) and confirmed their applications for ratiometric microRNA-21 sensing and bioimaging of cancer cells in a microfluidic device. The composition of blue CDs (B-CDs) and yellow CDs (Y-CDs) depicts dual-emission behavior which is centered at 409 and 543 nm under an excitation wavelength of 360 nm. With increasing microRNA-21 concentration, the robust and specific binding of DNA probe functionalized B-CDs to complementary microRNA-21 target induced perturbations of probe structure and led to changing fluorescence intensity in both wavelengths. Consequently, the ratio of turn-on signal to turn-off signal is greatly altered. With monitoring of the inherent ratiometric fluorescence variation (ΔF540nm/ΔF410nm), as-prepared BY-CDs were established as an efficient platform for ratiometric fluorescent microRNA-21 sensing, with a wide linear range of 0.15 fM to 2.46 pM and a detection limit of 50 aM. Conclusions Furthermore, the proposed assay was applied for detecting microRNA-21 in dilute human serum samples with satisfactory recovery and also in MCF-7 cell lines in the range 3000 to 45,000 (cell mL−1) with a detection limit (3 cells in 10 μL), demonstrating the potential of the assay for clinic diagnosis of microRNA-associated disease. More importantly, the images revealed that MCF-7 cells well labeled with BY-CDs could exhibit the applicability of the proposed microfluidic system as an effective cell trapping device in bioimaging.

Abstract
With cancer seriously hampering the increasing life expectancy of people, developing an instant diagnostic method has become an urgent objective. In this work, we developed a label-free laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) method for high-throughput recognition of tumor cells. LIBS spectra were straightly collected from cells dropped on a silicon substrate and built into a deep learning model for simultaneous classification of various cancers. To interpret the result of the deep learning algorithm, gradient-weighted class activation mapping was utilized to a one-dimensional convolution neural network (1D-CNN), and the saliency maps thus obtained amplified the differences between the spectra of cell lines. Overall results showed that the 1D-CNN algorithms achieved a mean sensitivity of 94.00%, a mean specificity of 98.47%, and a mean accuracy of 97.56%. Thus, the proposed method performed satisfactorily and is seen as an interpretable classification process for cancer cell lines.

Abstract
The grand challenges of ovarian cancer early diagnosis have led to an alarmingly high mortality rate from ovarian cancer (OC) in the past half century. In vitro diagnosis (IVD) has great potential in the early diagnosis of OC through non-invasive and dynamic analysis of biomarkers. However, common IVDs often fail to provide reliable test results due to lack of sensitivity, specificity, and convenience. In recent years, the discovery of new biomarkers and the progress of nanomaterials can solve the shortcomings of traditional IVD for early OC. These emerging biosensors based on nanomaterials offer great improvements in convenience, speed, selectivity, and sensitivity of IVD. In this review, we firstly systematically summarized the limits of commercial IVD biosensors of OC and the latest discovery of new biomarkers for OC. The representative optimization strategies for six potential ovarian cancer biomarkers are systematically discussed with emphasis on nanomaterial selection and the design of detection principles. Then, various strategies adopted by emerging biosensors based on nanomaterials are also introduced in detail, including optical, electrochemical, microfluidic, and surface plasmon sensors. Finally, current challenges of early OC IVD are proposed, and future research directions on this promising field are also discussed. Failure to diagnose OC early will lead to high mortality. The detection of OC-related biomarkers by IVD method will achieve early diagnosis of OC. The development of nanomaterials-based biosensors is expected to enhance efficiency of detection. Strategies and progress for nanomaterials-based biosensors are systematically reviewed.

Abstract
As well-appreciated biomarkers, tumor markers have been spotlighted as reliable tools for predicting the behavior of different tumors and helping clinicians ascertain the type of molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis. The sensitivity and specificity of these markers have made them an object of even broader interest for sensitive detection and staging of various cancers. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), fluorescence-based, mass-based, and electrochemical-based detections are current techniques for sensing tumor markers. Although some of these techniques provide good selectivity, certain obstacles, including a low sample concentration or difficulty carrying out the measurement, limit their application. With the advent of nanotechnology, many studies have been carried out to synthesize and employ nanomaterials (NMs) in sensing techniques to determine these tumor markers at low concentrations. The fabrication, sensitivity, design, and multiplexing of sensing techniques have been uplifted due to the attractive features of NMs. Various NMs, such as magnetic and metal nanoparticles, up-conversion NPs, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon-based NMs, quantum dots (QDs), and graphene-based nanosensors, hyperbranched polymers, optical nanosensors, piezoelectric biosensors, paper-based biosensors, microfluidic-based lab-on-chip sensors, and hybrid NMs have proven effective in detecting tumor markers with great sensitivity and selectivity. This review summarizes various categories of NMs for detecting these valuable markers, such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), cancer antigen 125 (CA125), cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3, MUC1), and cancer antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and highlights recent nanotechnology-based advancements in detection of these prognostic biomarkers.

Abstract
As significant components of the organism, carbohydrates and glycoconjugates play indispensable roles in energy supply, cell signaling, immune modulation, and tumor cell invasion, and function as biomarkers since aberrance of them has been proved to be associated with the emergence and development of certain diseases. Functional nucleic acids (FNAs) have properties including easy-to-synthesize, good stability, good biocompatibility, low cost, and high programmability, they have attracted significant research attention and been incorporated into biosensors for detecting disease-related carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. This review summarizes the construction strategies and biosensing applications of FNAs-based biosensors in glycobiology in terms of target recognition and signal transduction. By illustrating the mechanisms and comparing the performances, the challenges and development opportunities in this area have been critically elaborated. We believe that this review will provide a better understanding of the role of FNAs in the analysis of disease-related carbohydrates and glycoconjugates, and inspire further discovery in fields that include glycobiology, chemical biology, clinical diagnosis, and drug development.

Abstract
Alzheimer's is a neurodegenerative disease with high morbidity and mortality in the elderly, so, detection of its biomarker for definite diagnosis of Alzheimer's in the early stage of disease is a challenge. Amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) chosen as an Alzheimer's biomarker. Here, we developed novel, semi-solid, three-dimensional hydrogel matrices for ratiometric fluorescence detection of Aβ. This assay's great performance stems from the employment of a hybrid conjugate composed of Rhodamine B (RB), Carbon dots (CDs), and an Aβ probe entrapped in Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and then detection of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) that occurs in the presence of AuNP/target-Aβ, as a result of hybridization. The RB-CDs' fluorescence (at 582 nm and 675 nm under 430 nm excitation) is quenched in the presence of AuNPs, while the ratio of fluorescence (I582/I675) is increased by the addition of Aβ target, and shows a linear relationship in the range of 75 pM-250 nM, with a detection limit of 0.5 pM. Furthermore, the assay possesses strong selectivity for Aβ compared to other proteins, and different quantities of a human serum sample successfully analyzed with excellent sensitivity, satisfactory precision, and reliability. Due to distribution of Aβ in SH-SY5 human neuroblastoma cells, extending this UV-Vis-NIR full-range responsive CDs bio-probe to imaging of Aβ in cells. In both fixed and living SH-SY5 cells, the nanoprobe delivers a clear signal to the Aβ target. Because of its high sensitivity, selectivity, biocompatibility and affordability, this nanoprobe is a good option for early Alzheimer's disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Methods to improve the sensitivity of electrochemical sensors based on catalytic reactions generally require adscititious or pre-modified catalysts, which make the sensitive detection of sensors extremely challenging. This is because the activity of the catalyst is susceptible to the storage and modification process, such as aggregation during storage or loss of active sites during multi-step modification, which impairs the performance of the sensor. To solve this thorny issue, a novel electrochemical sensor based on a process-formed laccase-like catalyst was constructed for sensitive detection of tumor markers. Cu2+-polydopamine (CuPDA) combined with antibody (Ab2) were employed as copper-containing immunoprobe, which released Cu(Ⅱ) ions under acidic stimulation. Cu(Ⅱ) ions coordinate with the self-assembly cationic diphenylalanine-glutaraldehyde nanospheres (CDPGA) to form a laccase-like catalyst, which had stronger catalytic activity than laccase. The freshly formed catalyst was immediately used to degrade the polyhydroquinone-reduced graphene oxide (PHQ-rGO) composite, resulting in a significant reduction in the current signal. The PHQ-rGO composite plays dual roles of signal substance and substrate on the sensing interface. The proposed electrochemical sensor demonstrated wide linearity for the determination of a model analyte, human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), from 1 pg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1, and the detection limit was as low as 0.302 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3), which had good consistency with that of electrochemiluminescence method. This process-formed catalyst approach will have potential reference significance for the construction of other sensors.
