Abstract
Breast cancer continues to be a significant contributor to global cancer deaths, particularly among women. This highlights the critical role of early detection and treatment in boosting survival rates. While conventional diagnostic methods like mammograms, biopsies, ultrasounds, and MRIs are valuable tools, limitations exist in terms of cost, invasiveness, and the requirement for specialized equipment and trained personnel. Recent shifts towards biosensor technologies offer a promising alternative for monitoring biological processes and providing accurate health diagnostics in a cost-effective, non-invasive manner. These biosensors are particularly advantageous for early detection of primary tumors, metastases, and recurrent diseases, contributing to more effective breast cancer management. The integration of biosensor technology into medical devices has led to the development of low-cost, adaptable, and efficient diagnostic tools. In this framework, electrochemical screening platforms have garnered significant attention due to their selectivity, affordability, and ease of result interpretation. The current review discusses various breast cancer biomarkers and the potential of electrochemical biosensors to revolutionize early cancer detection, making provision for new diagnostic platforms and personalized healthcare solutions.

Abstract
BRCA1 gene and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) are important markers of breast cancer, so accurate detection of them is significant for early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. In this study, a potential-resolved ratio electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor using perylene diimide (PDI)-metal-organic framework and DNA nanoflowers (NFs)-CdS quantum dots (QDs) was constructed for detection of BRCA1 and CEA. Specifically, PDI-MOF and CdS QDs can generate potential-resolved intense ECL signals only using one coreactant, so the detection procedure can be effectively simplified. PDI-MOF was first attached to the electrode by graphene oxide, and the dopamine (DA) probe was linked to quench the ECL signal by DNA hybridization. In the presence of target BRCA1, it can form a bipedal DNA walker, so the quenching molecules (DA) were detached from the electrode via the walker amplification process aided by Mg2+, so that the PDI signal at -0.25 V was restored for the BRCA1 assay. Moreover, CdS QDs@DNA NFs as amplified signal probes were formed by self-assembly, and the target CEA-amplified product introduced the CdS QDs@DNA NFs to the electrode, so the QD ECL signal at -1.42 V was enhanced, while the ECL signal of PDI is unchanged; thus, CEA detection was achieved by the ratio value between them. Therefore, the detection accuracy is guaranteed by detection of two cancer markers and a ratio value. This biosensor has a great contribution to the development of new ECL materials and a novel ECL technique for fast and efficient multitarget assays, showing great significance for the early monitoring and diagnosis of breast cancer.

Abstract
Early detection of breast cancer and its molecular subtyping is crucial for guiding clinical treatment and improving survival rate. Current diagnostic methods for breast cancer are invasive, time consuming and complicated. In this work, an optical detection method integrating surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technology with feature selection and deep learning algorithm was developed for identifying serum components and building diagnostic model, with the aim of efficient and accurate noninvasive screening of breast cancer. First, the high quality of serum SERS spectra from breast cancer (BC), breast benign disease (BBD) patients and healthy controls (HC) were obtained. Chi-square tests were conducted to exclude confounding factors, enhancing the reliability of the study. Then, LightGBM (LGB) algorithm was used as the base model to retain useful features to significantly improve classification performance. The DNN algorithm was trained through backpropagation, adjusting the weights and biases between neurons to improve the network's predictive ability. In comparison to traditional machine learning algorithms, this method provided more accurate information for breast cancer classification, with classification accuracies of 91.38 % for BC and BBD, and 96.40 % for BC, BBD, and HC. Furthermore, the accuracies of 90.11 % for HR+/HR- and 88.89 % for HER2+/HER2- can be reached when evaluating BC patients' molecular subtypes. These results demonstrate that serum SERS combined with powerful LGB-DNN algorithm would provide a supplementary method for clinical breast cancer screening.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women and is a prevalent kind of cancerous growth, representing a substantial risk to women's health. Early detection of breast cancer is essential for effective treatment and improved survival rates. Biomarkers, active substances that signal the existence and advancement of a tumor, play a significant role in the early detection of breast cancer. Hence, accurate identification of biomarkers for tumors is crucial for diagnosing and treating breast cancer. However, the primary diagnostic methods used for the detection of breast cancer require specific equipment, skilled professionals, and specialized analysis, leading to elevated detection expenses. Regarding this obstacle, recent studies emphasize electrochemical biosensors as more advanced and sensitive detection tools compared to traditional methods. Electrochemical biosensors are employed to identify biomarkers that act as unique indicators for the onset, recurrence, and monitoring of therapeutic interventions for breast cancer. This study aims to provide a summary of the electrochemical biosensors that have been employed for the detection of breast cancer at an early stage over the past decade. Initially, the text provides concise information about breast cancer and tumor biomarkers. Subsequently, an in-depth analysis is conducted to systematically review the progress of electrochemical biosensors developed for the stable, specific, and sensitive identification of biomarkers associated with breast cancer. Particular emphasis was given to crucial clinical biomarkers, specifically the human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2). The analysis then explores the limitations and challenges inherent in the design of effective biosensors for diagnosing and treating breast cancer. Ultimately, we provided an overview of future research directions and concluded by outlining the advantages of electrochemical biosensor approaches.

Abstract
Breast cancer has been reported to be high in its incidence with women, and early identification of breast cancer helps to improve and provide an effective treatment. Tumor markers are active substances; in particular, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is over-expressed at the level of 20%-30%. This research work developed a highly sensitive HER2 biosensor on the interdigitated electrode (IDE) by using aptamer as a detection probe. To enhance the analytical performances, aptamer was attached to the gold nanoparticle and immobilized on the IDE through a chemical linker [(3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane]. On the aptamer conjugation, HER2 was quantified through current-volt measurements, and the limit of detection of HER2 was calculated as 1 pg/mL on a linear range from 0.1 to 3000 pg/mL at an R2 (regression coefficient) of 0.9657. Further, a selective performance with human serum increased the current responses by increasing HER2 concentrations. Specific experiments with control protein and complementary aptamer sequence failed to enhance the current responses. This HER2 biosensor reflects the occurrence of breast cancer at its lower abundance and helps to identify the associated complications.

Abstract
Cancer stands as one of the most impactful illnesses in the modern world, primarily owing to its lethal consequences. The fundamental concern in this context likely stems from delayed diagnoses in patients. Hence, detecting various forms of cancer is imperative. A formidable challenge in cancer research has been the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. Early cancer diagnosis is crucial, as it significantly influences subsequent therapeutic steps. Despite substantial scientific efforts, accurately and swiftly diagnosing cancer remains a formidable challenge. It is well known that the field of cancer diagnosis has effectively included electrochemical approaches. Combining the remarkable selectivity of biosensing components-such as aptamers, antibodies, or nucleic acids-with electrochemical sensor systems has shown positive outcomes. In this study, we adapt a novel electrochemical biosensor for cancer detection. This biosensor, based on a glassy carbon electrode, incorporates a nanocomposite of reduced graphene oxide/Fe3O4/Nafion/polyaniline. We elucidated the modification process using SEM, TEM, FTIR, RAMAN, VSM, and electrochemical methods. To optimize the experimental conditions and monitor the immobilization processes, electrochemical techniques such as CV, EIS, and SWV were employed. The calibration graph has a linear range of 102-106 cells mL-1, with a detection limit of 5 cells mL-1.

Abstract
Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with breast cancer. Detecting high-risk breast cancer, including micrometastasis, at an early stage is vital for customizing the right and efficient therapies. In this study, we propose an enzyme-free isothermal cascade amplification-based DNA logic circuit in situ biomineralization nanosensor, HDNAzyme@ZIF-8, for simultaneous imaging of multidimensional biomarkers in live cells. Taking miR-21 and Ki-67 mRNA as the dual detection targets achieved sensitive logic operations and molecular recognition through the cascade hybridization chain reaction and DNAzyme. The HDNAzyme@ZIF-8 nanosensor has the ability to accurately differentiate breast cancer cells and their subtypes by comparing their relative fluorescence intensities. Of note, our nanosensor can also achieve visualization within breast cancer organoids, faithfully recapitulating the functional characteristics of parental tumor. Overall, the combination of these techniques offers a universal strategy for detecting cancers with high sensitivity and holds vast potential in clinical cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most widespread and severe diseases with a huge mortality rate. In recent years, the second-leading mortality rate of any cancer globally has been breast cancer, which is one of the most common and deadly cancers found in women. Detecting breast cancer in its initial stages simplifies treatment, decreases death risk, and recovers survival rates for patients. The death rate for breast cancer has risen to 0.024 % in some regions. Sensitive and accurate technologies are required for the preclinical detection of BC at an initial stage. Biomarkers play a very crucial role in the early identification as well as diagnosis of women with breast cancer. Currently, a wide variety of cancer biomarkers have been discovered for the diagnosis of cancer. For the identification of these biomarkers from serum or other body fluids at physiological amounts, many detection methods have been developed. In the case of breast cancer, biomarkers are especially helpful in discovering those who are more likely to develop the disease, determining prognosis at the time of initial diagnosis and choosing the best systemic therapy. In this study we have compiled various clinical aspects and signaling pathways associated with protein-based biomarkers and gene-based biomarkers.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop a quenching-type electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor for human epidermal growth factor receptor (Her-2) detection. Firstly, Pd/NiFeOx nanoflowers decorated by in situ formation of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and 2D Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets were synthesized (AuPd/NiFeOx/Ti3C2) as carriers to load luminol and primary antibodies. Impressively, AuPd/NiFeOx/Ti3C2 with excellent peroxidase-like activity could accelerate the decomposition of the coreactant H2O2 generating more reactive oxygen species (ROSs) under the working potential from 0 to 0.8 V, resulting in highly efficient ECL emission at 435-nm wavelengths. The introduction of tungsten-based polyoxometalate nanoclusters (W-POM NCs) which exhibit remarkable ROSs-scavenging activity as secondary antibody labels could improve the sensitivity of immunosensors. The ZnO nanoflowers were employed to encapsulate minute-sized W-POM NCs, and polydopamine was self-polymerized on the surface of Zn(W-POM)O to anchor secondary antibodies. The mechanism of the quenching strategy was explored and it was found that W-POM NCs could consume ROSs by the redox reaction of W5+ resulting in W6+. The proposed ECL immunosensor displayed a wide linear response range of 0.1 pg·mL-1 to 50 ng·mL-1, and a low detection limit of 0.036 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). The recoveries ranged from 93.9 to 99.4%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was lower than 10%. This finding is promising for the design of detecting new protein biomarkers.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is a major global health problem, with ≈20-25% of patients overexpressing human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), an aggressive marker, yet access to early detection and treatment varies across countries. A low-cost, equipment-free, and easy-to-use polydiacetylene (PDA)-based colorimetric sensor is developed for HER2-overexpressing cancer detection, designed for use in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). PDA nanoparticles are first prepared through thin-film hydration. Subsequently, hydrophilic magnetic nanoparticles and HER2 antibodies are sequentially conjugated to them. The synthesized HER2-MPDA can be concentrated and separated by a magnetic field while inheriting the optical characteristics of PDA. The specific binding of HER2 antibody in HER2-MPDA to HER2 receptor in HER2-overexpressing exosomes causes a blue-to-red color change by altering the molecular structure of the PDA backbone. This colorimetric sensor can simultaneously separate and detect HER2-overexpressing exosomes. HER2-MPDA can detect HER2-overexpressing exosomes in the culture medium of HER2-overexpressing BC cells and in mouse urine samples from a HER2-overexpressing BC mouse model. It can selectively isolate and detect only HER2-overexpressing exosomes through magnetic separation, and its detection limit is found to be 8.5 × 108 particles mL-1 . This colorimetric sensor can be used for point-of-care diagnosis of HER2-overexpressing BC in LMICs.

Advancing chirality analysis through enhanced enantiomer characterization and quantification via fast Fourier transform capacitance voltammetry. Sci Rep 2023; 13:16739. [PMID: 37798351 PMCID: PMC10556018 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43945-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The exploration of the chiral configurations of enantiomers represents a highly intriguing realm of scientific inquiry due to the distinct roles played by each enantiomer (D and L) in chemical reactions and their practical utilities. This study introduces a pioneering analytical methodology, termed fast Fourier transform capacitance voltammetry (FFT-CPV), in conjunction with principal component analysis (PCA), for the identification and quantification of the chiral forms of tartaric acid (TA), serving as a representative model system for materials exhibiting pronounced chiral characteristics. The proposed methodology relies on the principle of chirality, wherein the capacitance signal generated by the adsorption of D-TA and L-TA onto the surface of a platinum electrode (Pt-electrode) in an acidic solution is harnessed. The capacitance voltammograms were meticulously recorded under optimized experimental conditions. To compile the final dataset for the analyte, the average of the FFT capacitance voltammograms of the acidic solution (without the presence of the analyte) was subtracted from those containing the analyte. A distinct arrangement was obtained by employing PCA as a linear data transformation method, representing D-TA and L-TA in a two/three-dimensional space. The outcomes of the study reveal the successful detection of the two chiral forms of TA with a considerable degree of precision and reproducibility. Moreover, the proposed method facilitated the establishment of two linear response ranges for the concentration values of each enantiomer, spanning from 1 to 20 µM, and 50 to 500 µM. The respective detection limits were also determined to be 0.4 µM for L-TA and 1.3 µM for D-TA. These findings underscore the satisfactory sensitivity and efficiency of the proposed method in both qualitative and quantitative assessments of the chiral forms of TA.

Abstract
Cancer is a fatal disease and a significant cause of millions of deaths. Traditional methods for cancer detection often have limitations in identifying the disease in its early stages, and they can be expensive and time-consuming. Since cancer typically lacks symptoms and is often only detected at advanced stages, it is crucial to use affordable technologies that can provide quick results at the point of care for early diagnosis. Biosensors that target specific biomarkers associated with different types of cancer offer an alternative diagnostic approach at the point of care. Recent advancements in manufacturing and design technologies have enabled the miniaturization and cost reduction of point-of-care devices, making them practical for diagnosing various cancer diseases. Furthermore, machine learning (ML) algorithms have been employed to analyze sensor data and extract valuable information through the use of statistical techniques. In this review paper, we provide details on how various machine learning algorithms contribute to the ongoing development of advanced data processing techniques for biosensors, which are continually emerging. We also provide information on the various technologies used in point-of-care cancer diagnostic biosensors, along with a comparison of the performance of different ML algorithms and sensing modalities in terms of classification accuracy.

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
Early detection of breast cancer, the first main cause of death in women, with robust assay platforms using appropriate biomarkers is of great importance for diagnosis and follow-up of the disease progression. This paper introduces an extra selective and sensitive label-free aptasensor for the screening of BRCA1 gene biomarker by taking advantage of a gate modified with aptamer and molecularly imprinted polymer hybrid (MIP) as a new synthetic receptor film coupled with an electrolyte-gated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) field-effect transistor (FET). The Au gate surface of FET was modified with insulin stabilized bimetallic Ag-Au@nanoclusters (Ag-Au@InsNCs), after which, the immobilization of the hybridized aptamer and o-phenylenediamine was electropolymerized to form an aptamer-MIP hybrid receptor. The output characteristics of Apta-MIP hybrid modified Au gate MoS2 FET device were followed as a result of change in electrical double layer capacitance of electrolye-gate interface. The magnitude of decrease in the drain current showed a linear response over a wide concentration range of 10 aM to 1 nM of BRCA1 ssDNA with a sensitivity as high as 0.4851 μA/decade of concentration and a limit of detection (LOD) of 3.0 aM while very low responses observed for non-imprinted polymer. The devised aptasensor not only was capable to the discrimination of the complementary versus one-base mismatch BRCA1 ssDNA sequence, but also it could detect the complementary BRCA1 ssDNA in spiked human serum samples over a wide concentration range of 10 aM to 1.0 nM with a low LOD of 6.4 aM and a high sensitivity 0.3718 μA/decade.

Abstract
Accurate and ultrasensitive evaluation of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) protein is key to early diagnosis and subtype differentiation of breast cancer. Single-cell analyses to reduce ineffective targeted therapies due to breast cancer heterogeneity and improve patient survival remain challenging. Herein, we reported a novel droplet microfluidic combined with an instant cation exchange signal amplification strategy for quantitative analysis of HER2 protein expression on single cells. In the 160 μm droplets produced by a tapered capillary bundle, abundant Immuno-CdS labeled on HER2-positive cells were replaced by Ag + to obtain Cd2+ that stimulated Rhod-5N fluorescence. This uniformly distributed and instantaneous fluorescence amplification strategy in droplets improves sensitivity and reduces signal fluctuation. Using HER2 modified PS microsphere to simulate single cells, we obtained a linear fitting of HER2-modified concentration and fluorescence intensity in microdroplets with the limit detection of 11.372 pg mL-1. Moreover, the relative standard deviation (RSD) was 4.2-fold lower than the traditional immunofluorescence technique (2.89% vs 12.21%). The HER2 protein on SK-BR-3 cells encapsulated in droplets was subsequently quantified, ranging from 9862.954 pg mL-1 and 205.26 pg mL-1, equivalent to 9.795 × 106 and 2.038 × 105 protein molecules. This detection system provides a universal platform for single-cell sensitive quantitative analysis and contributes to the evaluation of HER2-positive tumors.

Abstract
According to the latest report by International Agency for Research on Cancer, 19.3 million new cancer cases and 10 million cancer deaths were globally reported in 2020. Early diagnosis can reduce these numbers significantly, and biosensors have appeared to be a solution to this problem as, unlike the traditional methods, they have low cost, rapid process, and do not need experts present on site for use. These devices have been incorporated to detect many cancer biomarkers and measure cancer drug delivery. To design these biosensors, a researcher must know about their different types, properties of nanomaterials, and cancer biomarkers. Among all types of biosensors, electrochemical and optical biosensors are the most sensitive and promising sensors for detecting complicated diseases like cancer. The carbon-based nanomaterial family has attracted lots of attention due to their low cost, easy preparation, biocompatibility, and significant electrochemical and optical properties. In this review, we have discussed the application of graphene and its derivatives, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon dots (CDs), and fullerene (C60), for designing different electrochemical and optical cancer-detecting biosensors. Furthermore, the application of these carbon-based biosensors for detecting seven widely studied cancer biomarkers (HER2, CEA, CA125, VEGF, PSA, Alpha-fetoprotein, and miRNA21) is reviewed. Finally, various fabricated carbon-based biosensors for detecting cancer biomarkers and anticancer drugs are comprehensively summarized as well.

Abstract
High electron mobility transistor (HEMT) biosensors hold great potential for realizing label-free, real-time, and direct detection. Owing to their unique properties of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), HEMT biosensors have the ability to amplify current changes pertinent to potential changes with the introduction of any biomolecules, making them highly surface charge sensitive. This review discusses the recent advances in the use of AlGaN/GaN and AlGaAs/GaAs HEMT as biosensors in the context of different gate architectures. We describe the fundamental mechanisms underlying their operational functions, giving insight into crucial experiments as well as the necessary analysis and validation of data. Surface functionalization and biorecognition integrated into the HEMT gate structures, including self-assembly strategies, are also presented in this review, with relevant and promising applications discussed for ultra-sensitive biosensors. Obstacles and opportunities for possible optimization are also surveyed. Conclusively, future prospects for further development and applications are discussed. This review is instructive for researchers who are new to this field as well as being informative for those who work in related fields.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women, which is also the second most public cancer worldwide. When detected early, BC can be treated more easily and prevented from spreading beyond the breast. In recent years, various BC biosensor strategies have been studied, including optical, electrical, electrochemical, and mechanical biosensors. In particular, the high sensitivity and short detection time of electrochemical biosensors make them suitable for the recognition of BC biomarkers. Moreover, the sensitivity of the electrochemical biosensor can be increased by incorporating nanomaterials. In this respect, the outstanding mechanical and electrical performances of graphene have led to an increasingly intense study of graphene-based materials for BC electrochemical biosensors. Hence, the present review examines the latest advances in graphene-based electrochemical biosensors for BC biosensing. For each biosensor, the detection limit (LOD), linear range (LR), and diagnosis technique are analyzed. This is followed by a discussion of the prospects and current challenges, along with potential strategies for enhancing the performance of electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
Breast cancer is categorized as the most widespread cancer type among women globally. On-time diagnosis can decrease the mortality rate by making the right decision in the therapy procedure. These features lead to a reduction in medication time and socioeconomic burden. The current review article provides a comprehensive assessment for breast cancer diagnosis using nanomaterials and related technologies. Growing use of the nano/biotechnology domain in terms of electrochemical nanobiosensor designing was discussed in detail. In this regard, recent advances in nanomaterial applied for amplified biosensing methodologies were assessed for breast cancer diagnosis by focusing on the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches. We also monitored designing methods, advantages, and the necessity of suitable (nano) materials from a statistical standpoint. The main objective of this review is to classify the applicable biosensors based on breast cancer biomarkers. With numerous nano-sized platforms published for breast cancer diagnosis, this review tried to collect the most suitable methodologies for detecting biomarkers and certain breast cancer cell types.

Abstract
Screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) are promising candidates for fabricating biosensing platforms in the laboratory and industry due to the various advantages they involve. The primary method for fabricating SPEs is 2D printing. However, commercial SPEs have some limitations due to the specific ports and connections they require, inflexible design, high prices, and decreased efficiency after a short time. This article introduces high performance, feasible, and cost-effective gold SPEs based on the combination of printed circuit board substrate (PCBs) and sputtering methods for electrochemical biosensing platforms. First, we discuss a general gold SPE development procedure that helps researchers to develop specific designs. The final developed version of SPEs was characterized in the second step, showing positive performance in electrochemical parameters because of the optimization of design and fabrication steps. In the study’s final phase, SPEs were used to fabricate a simple platform for breast cancer cell detection as a proof of concept without using any linker or labeling step. The designed immunosensor is very simple and cost-effective, showing a linear calibration curve in the range of 10 − 2× 102 cells mL−1 (R2 = 0.985, S/N = 3). This research can be used as a reference for future studies in SPEs-based biosensors because of the flexibility of its design and the accessibility of the manufacturing equipment required.

Abstract
The expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) has important implications for pathogenesis, progression, and therapeutic efficacy of breast cancer. The detection of its variation during the treatment is crucial for therapeutic decision-making but remains a grand challenge, especially at the cellular level. Here, we develop a machine learning-driven surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-integrated strategy for label-free detection of cellular HER2. Specifically, our method allows the extraction of cell-rich spectral signatures utilized for identification and classification of cancer cells with distinct HER2 expression with a high accuracy of 99.6%. By combining label-free SERS detection and machine learning-driven chemometric analysis, we are able to perform longitudinal monitoring of therapeutic efficacy at the cellular level during the treatment of HER2+ breast cancer, which aids in the subsequent decision-making and management. This work provides a promising technique capable of performing dynamic label-free spectroscopic detection for therapeutic surveillance of diseases.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is a highly metastatic multifactorial disease with various histological and molecular subtypes. Due to recent advancements, the mortality rate in BC has improved over the past five decades. Detection and treatment of many cancers are now possible due to the application of nanomedicine in clinical practice. Nanomedicine products such as Doxil® and Abraxane® have already been extensively used for BC adjuvant therapy with favorable clinical outcomes. However, these products were designed initially for generic anticancer purposes and not specifically for BC treatment. With a better understanding of the molecular biology of BC, several novel and promising nanotherapeutic strategies and devices have been developed in recent years. In this context, multi-functionalized nanostructures are becoming potential carriers for enhanced chemotherapy in BC patients. To design these nanostructures, a wide range of materials, such as proteins, lipids, polymers, and hybrid materials, can be used and tailored for specific purposes against BC. Selective targeting of BC cells results in the activation of programmed cell death in BC cells and can be considered a promising strategy for managing triple-negative BC. Currently, conventional BC screening methods such as mammography, digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are either costly or expose the user to hazardous radiation that could harm them. Therefore, there is a need for such analytical techniques for detecting BC that are highly selective and sensitive, have a very low detection limit, are durable, biocompatible, and reproducible. In detecting BC biomarkers, nanostructures are used alone or in conjunction with numerous molecules. This review intends to highlight the recent advances in nanomedicine in BC treatment and diagnosis, emphasizing the targeting of BC cells that overexpress receptors of epidermal growth factors. Researchers may gain insight from these strategies to design and develop more tailored nanomedicine for BC to achieve further improvements in cancer specificity, antitumorigenic effects, anti-metastasis effects, and drug resistance reversal effects.

Abstract
Future point-of-care (PoC) and wearable electrochemical biosensors explore new technology solutions to eliminate the need for multistep electrode modification and functionalization, overcome the limited reproducibility, and automate the sensing steps. In this work, a new screen-printed immuno-biosensor strip is engineered and characterized using a hybrid graphene nanosheet intermixed with the conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) polymers, all embedded within the base carbon matrix (GiPEC) of the screen-printing ink. This intermixed nanocomposite ink is chemically designed for self-containing the "carboxyl" functional groups as the most specific chemical moiety for protein immobilization on the electrodes. The GiPEC ink enables capturing the target antibodies on the electrode without any need for extra surface preparation. As a proof of concept, the performance of the non-functionalized ready-to-immobilize strips was assessed for the detection of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) as a known central nervous system injury blood biomarker. This immuno-biosensor exhibits the limit of detection of 281.7 fg mL-1 (3 signal-to-noise ratio) and the sensitivity of 322.6 Ω mL pg-1 mm-2 within the clinically relevant linear detection range from 1 pg mL-1 to 10 ng mL-1. To showcase its potential PoC application, the bio-ready strip is embedded inside a capillary microfluidic device and automates electrochemical quantification of GFAP spiked in phosphate-buffered saline and the human serum. This new electrochemical biosensing platform can be further adapted for the detection of various protein biomarkers with the application in realizing on-chip immunoassays.

Abstract
Tumor markers are highly sensitive and play an important role in the early diagnosis of cancer. We developed an electrochemical sandwich-type immunosensor that detects human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Magnetic framework (Fe3O4@ TMU-24) and AuNPs (Fe3O4@ TMU-24 -AuNPs) are utilized in this sensing platform. In addition to their high specific surface area and excellent biocompatibility, Fe3O4@ TMU-24-AuNPs nanocomposites exhibited excellent electrocatalytic properties. The primary antibody of HER2 (Ab1) was immobilized on the surface of the Fe3O4@ TMU-24-AuNPs. In this sensing method, palatine doped to CdTe QDs (Pt: CdTe QDs) is utilized as a novel labeling signal biomolecule (secondary antibodies). Pt: CdTe QDs own good biocompatibility and excellent catalytic performance. The amperometric technique was used to achieve the quantitative determination of HER2 by using a sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor. Under the optimum conditions, the dependency of the current signal and HER2 concentration showed a linear region from 1 pg ml−1–100 ng ml−1 with 0.175 pg ml−1 as the limit of detection. This biosensing device also showed long stability and good reproducibility, which can be used for the quantitative assay of HER2.

Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) overexpressing breast cancer is a breast cancer subtype characterized by high aggressiveness, high frequency of brain metastases and poor prognosis. HER-2, a glycoprotein belonging to the ErbB receptor family, is overexpressed on the outer membrane of cancer cells and has been an important therapeutic target for the development of targeted drugs, such as the monoclonal antibodies trastuzumab and pertuzumab. These therapies have been available in clinics for more than twenty years. However, despite the initial enthusiasm, a major issue emerged limiting HER-2 targeted therapy efficacy, i.e., the evolution of drug resistance, which could be tackled by nanotechnology. The aim of this review is to provide a first critical update on the different types of HER-2-targeted nanoparticles that have been proposed in the literature in the last decade for therapeutic purposes. We focus on the different targeting strategies that have been explored, their relative outcomes and current limitations that still need to be improved. Then, we review the nanotools developed as diagnostic kits, focusing on the most recent techniques, which allow accurate quantification of HER-2 levels in tissues, with the aim of promoting more personalized medicinal approaches in patients.

Abstract
Multiplex electrochemical biosensors have been used for eliminating the matrix effect in complex bodily fluids or enabling the detection of two or more bioanalytes, overall resulting in more sensitive assays and accurate diagnostics. Many electrochemical biosensors lack reliable and low-cost multiplexing to meet the requirements of point-of-care detection due to either limited functional biosensors for multi-electrode detection or incompatible readout systems. We developed a new dual electrochemical biosensing unit accompanied by a customized potentiostat to address the unmet need for point-of-care multi-electrode electrochemical biosensing. The two-working electrode system was developed using screen-printing of a carboxyl-rich nanomaterial containing ink, with both working electrodes offering active sites for recognition of bioanalytes. The low-cost bi-potentiostat system (∼$80) was developed and customized specifically to the bi-electrode design and used for rapid, repeatable, and accurate measurement of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy signals from the dual biosensor. This binary electrochemical data acquisition (Bi-ECDAQ) system accurately and selectively detected SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid protein (N-protein) in both spiked samples and clinical nasopharyngeal swab samples of COVID-19 patients within 30 min. The two working electrodes offered the limit of detection of 116 fg/mL and 150 fg/mL, respectively, with the dynamic detection range of 1-10,000 pg/mL and the sensitivity range of 2744-2936 Ω mL/pg.mm2 for the detection of N-protein. The potentiostat performed comparable or better than commercial Autolab potentiostats while it is significantly lower cost. The open-source Bi-ECDAQ presents a customizable and flexible approach towards addressing the need for rapid and accurate point-of-care electrochemical biosensors for the rapid detection of various diseases.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB)-based cancer immunotherapy presents promising efficacy in cancer treatment. However, only a small portion of patients show responsiveness to the treatment, which is partially caused by limited tumor infiltration of T cells. Chemokines CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 bind to their receptor CXCR3 to regulate T cell invasion.
Methods
We delivered plasmids encoding CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 to tumor cells and tumor tissues using nanoparticles and investigated their effect on T cell invasion and infiltration. In addition, we applied these nanoparticles together with anti-PD-1 antibody, which is known to activate T cells and restore immune function against tumor cells. The anti-tumor effects were evaluated.
Results
Delivering plasmids encoding CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 by nanoparticles resulted in expression of these chemokines in both LLC cells and tumors. Expressing CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 promoted the infiltration of T cells in vitro and in vivo, as well as decreased the tumor size. Nanoparticles together with anti-PD-1 displayed the best anti-tumor effects.
Conclusions
Delivery of CXCL9/10/11 plasmids by nanoparticles promoted T cell infiltration in tumors and synergizes with the activity of anti-PD1 antibody.

Abstract
Abstract The need for biosensors has evolved in the detection of molecules, diseases, and pollution from various sources. This requirement has headed to the development of accurate and powerful equipment for analysis using biological sensing component as a biosensor. Biosensors have the advantage of rapid detection that can beat the conventional methods for the detection of the same molecules. Bio-chemiluminescence-based sensors are very sensitive during use in biological immune assay systems. Optical biosensors are emerging with time as they have the advantage that they act with a change in the refractive index. Carbon nanotube-based sensors are another area that has an important role in the biosensor field. Bioluminescence gives much higher quantum yields than classical chemiluminescence. Electro-generated bioluminescence has the advantage of miniature size and can produce a high signal-to-noise ratio and the controlled emission. Recent advances in biological techniques and instrumentation involving fluorescence tag to nanomaterials have increased the sensitivity limit of biosensors. Integrated approaches provided a better perspective for developing specific and sensitive biosensors with high regenerative potentials. This paper mainly focuses on sensors that are important for the detection of multiple molecules related to clinical and environmental applications. Key points • The review focusses on the applications of luminescence-based, surface plasmon resonance-based, carbon nanotube-based, and graphene-based biosensors • Potential clinical, environmental, agricultural, and food industry applications/uses of biosensors have been critically reviewed • The current limitations in this field are discussed, as well as the prospects for future advancement

Abstract
The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) protein is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or ErbB) family and is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor. HER-2 is highly regulated in ovarian, lung, gastric, oral, and breast cancers. The low specificity, complexity, expensiveness and the lack of sensitivity are essential restrictions in traditional diagnosis methods such as FISH, immunohistochemistry and PCR and these disadvantages led to the need for more studies on alternative methods. Biosensor technology has greatly affected the quality of human life owing to its features including, sensitivity, specificity, and rapid diagnosis and monitoring of different patient diseases. In this review article, we examine various biosensors, considering that they have been categorized based on the transducers used including piezoelectric biosensors, optical sensors such as fluorescence and surface plasmon resonance, and electrochemical types for the diagnosis of HER-2 and the effectiveness of some drugs against that. Attention to developing some types of biosensor devices such as colorimetric biosensors for HER-2 detection can be an important point in future studies.

Abstract
Presently, with the introduction of nanotechnology, the evolutions and applications of biosensors and/or nanobiosensors are becoming prevalent in various scientific domains such as environmental and agricultural sciences as well as biomedical, clinical, and healthcare sciences. Trends in these aspects have led to the discovery of various biosensors/nanobiosensors with their tremendous benefits to mankind. The characteristics of the various biosensors/nanobiosensors are primarily based on the nature of nanomaterials/nanoparticles employed in the sensing mechanisms. In the last few years, the identification, as well as the detection of biological markers linked with any form of diseases (communicable or noncommunicable), has been accomplished by several sensing procedures using nanotechnology vis-à-vis biosensors/nanobiosensors. Hence, this study employs a systematic approach in reviewing some contemporary developed exceedingly sensitive nanobiosensors alongside their biomedical, clinical, or/and healthcare applications as well as their potentialities, specifically for the detection of some deadly diseases drawn from some of the recent publications. Ways forward in the form of future trends that will advance creative innovations of the potentialities of nanobiosensors for biomedical, clinical, or/and healthcare applications particularly for disease diagnosis are also highlighted.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in women; therefore, its early detection and treatment are crucial. To achieve this goal, we designed an optical sensor based on direct interaction of trastuzumab [Herceptin (HER)], a monoclonal antibody used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer, with plasmonic nanoparticles. Surface-modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have gained considerable attention in biosensing techniques over the last years, which actuated these nanoparticles to the heart of various biosensing notions. We have exploited the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of gold nanoparticles to determine HER in human serum. AuNPs were decorated with negatively charged citrate ions, yielding enhanced direct-surface interaction with HER antibodies. The AuNPs are mixed with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in an optimized ratio to increase selectivity and sensitivity further. AuNPs detect the HER antibodies using LSPR, whereas AgNPs help monitor interferences' effect on the sensing media. The three effective factors in HER sensing, including the nanoparticle ratio, temperature, and pH were optimized via response surface methodology (RSM) based on the central composite design (CCD). The sensor's response toward HER was achieved in the linear range of 0.5 × 10-7 to 40 × 10-7 M with the detection limit of 3.7 × 10-9 M and relative standard deviation (RSD) less than 5%. The selectivity of the LSPR sensor was assessed by monitoring its response toward HER in the presence of other biological molecules with similar physicochemical properties. Rapid response time (less than 1 min), selectivity, and the simplicity of the developed LSPR-based sensor are the key advantages of the developed sensor.

Abstract
The realization of true point-of-care (PoC) systems profoundly relies on integrating the bioanalytical assays into "on-chip" fluid handing platforms, with autonomous performance, reproducible functionality, and capacity in scalable production. Specifically for electrochemical immuno-biosensing, the complexity of the procedure used for ultrasensitive protein detection using screen-printed biosensors necessitates a lab-centralized practice, hindering the path towards near-patient use. This work develops a self-powered microfluidic chip that automates the entire assay of electrochemical immuno-biosensing, enabling controlled and sequential delivery of the biofluid sample and the sensing reagents to the surface of the embedded electrochemical biosensor. Without any need for active fluid handling, this novel sample-to-result testing kit offers antibody-antigen immunoreaction within 15 min followed by the subsequent automatic washing, redox probe delivery, and electrochemical signal recording. The redox molecules ([Fe(CN)6]3-/4-) are pre-soaked and dried in fiber and embedded inside the chip. The dimensions of the fluidic design and the parameters of the electrochemical bioassay are optimized to warrant a consistent and reproducible performance of the autonomous sensing device. The uniform diffusion of the dried redox into the injected solution and its controlled delivery onto the biosensor are modeled via a two-phase flow computational fluid dynamics simulation, determining the suitable time for electrochemical signal measurement from the biosensor. The microfluidic chip performs well with both water-based fluids and human plasma with the optimized sample volume to offer a proof-of-concept ultrasensitive biosensing of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid proteins spiked in phosphate buffer saline within 15 min. The on-chip N-protein biosensing demonstrates a linear detection range of 10 to 1000 pg mL-1 with a limit of detection of 3.1 pg mL-1. This is the first self-powered microfluidic-integrated electrochemical immuno-biosensor that promises quantitative and ultrasensitive PoC biosensing. Once it is modified for its design and dimensions, it can be further used for autonomous detection of one or multiple proteins in diverse biofluid samples.

Abstract
Overexpression of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) was already associated with the loss of p53 function as cancer progresses in lung, breast, and cervical cancers. Cancer biomarker detection has faced challenges and barriers due to various limitations, including a high limit of detection, low sensitivity, time-consuming techniques, and expensive equipment. Hence, the present investigation is designed to develop a cost-effective novel biosensor based on a charge-based affinity bait molecule to detect the PDGFR, thus overcoming the limitations and challenges with an immune technique based on antigen-antibody interactions. We employed EDC-NHS coupling between poly (diallyl dimethylammonium chloride) and poly(acrylic acid) to attach the multiwall carbon nanotube surface. As a result, we performed electrochemical PDGFR conversion sensing with a dynamic range of 1-10,000 ng/mL and a detection limit of 1.5 pg/mL, which is comparable to the best current results. The biosensor also displayed good selectivity, 2.51% repeatability (RSD, n = 5), and 30 days of stability. Our study provides a pathway for the design of diagnostic interfaces in biosystems, as well as the emergence of new sensor types based on ligand-receptor interactions.

Abstract
A sensitive biosensor capable of detecting trace concentrations of several cancer biomarkers in clinical samples is critical for early detection of cancer because different cancer biomarkers may be expressed at different stages of cancer. Previous multiplex studies using microarrays or color-coded beads had limited multiplex detection in a single well, and difficulty in optimizing and unifying the incubation parameters for all tests made in different wells had posed challenges to small sample size and lengthened assay time. Herein, we proposed a novel approach to achieve multiplex analysis on a single three-dimensional porous calcium alginate bead. Because of the high surface area to volume ratio of the calcium alginate immuno-bead, the sensitivity and linear dynamic range of the as-proposed multiplex analysis method are significantly improved. Based on the direct sandwich immunoassay principle, dual-capturing antibodies were encapsulated into a single 3D porous calcium alginate bead as a proof-of-concept for multiplexity detection of serum-HER2 and serum-CA125 breast cancer biomarkers. High sensitivity was attained, with LODs of 0.004 ng mL-1 for serum HER2, and 0.005 U mL-1 for serum CA125, both of which are below the clinical cutoff values, enabling for early breast cancer diagnosis. Stability tests revealed that the 3D immuno-beads were stable at 4 °C and room temperature (25 °C) for at least 14 days. Most importantly, the results obtained using the developed system were in good agreement with those obtained using standard methods while analyzing real clinical samples. In addition, the analysis required only approximately 30 min, which was much less time than typical ELISA techniques. When endogenous interferences were introduced, no cross-reactivity was observed. We anticipate this approach to be potentially used in the multiplex assays and biosensors.

There have been exciting recent developments, including significant improvements in the validation, sensitivity, specificity, and integration of sample processing steps to develop point-of-care (POC) integrated micro-total analysis systems for clinical settings. The present review highlights various biosensing modalities (electrical, optical, piezoelectric, mass, and acoustic sensing). It provides deep insights into their design principles, signal amplification strategies, and comparative performance analysis. Finally, this review emphasizes the status of existing integrated micro-total analysis systems (μ-TAS) for personalized breast cancer therapeutics and associated challenges and outlines the approach required to realize their successful translation into clinical settings.

Abstract
The development of an Aptamer based biosensor for the selective detection of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) with high sensitivity and specificity was achieved. A screen-printed carbon electrode was used in the scope of this work. The HER2 Aptamer was immobilized via electrostatic adsorption on the surface of a screen-printed electrode, which was modified with Au Nanoparticles (~ 20 nm diameter) to support the Aptamer immobilization. The Aptasensor was extensively investigated using Cyclic voltammetry, Differential pulse voltammetry, Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Atomic force microscopy. The Aptasensor exhibits a fast response with a binding time of only 5 min and shows a log-linear response over a wide concentration range of 0.001-100 ng/mL. Moreover, it has high sensitivity and enhanced detection limit reaching 52.85 μA/ng/mL, and 0.001 ng/mL, respectively, with a relative standard deviation < 5%. The Aptasensor selectivity was studied by using different interfering substances, and the results demonstrate that the Aptasensor is efficient for the detection of HER2 with approximately 8% extent of the interference.

Owing to their unique optical characteristics and biological compatibility, gold nanoparticles (GNPs), silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), bimetallic nanoparticles and magnetic nanoparticles have been broadly implemented in making sensing tools. The functionalization of these nanoparticles with different components provides an excellent opportunity to assemble selective and sensitive sensing materials to detect various biological molecules related to breast cancer. This review summarizes the recent application of optical biosensing devices based on nanomaterials and discusses their pros and cons to improve breast cancer detection in real samples. In particular, the main constituent elements of these optical biosensors including recognition and transducer elements, types of applied nanostructures, analytical sensing procedures, sensor detection ranges and limit of detection (LOD), are expressed in detail.

Abstract
The outstretched applications of biosensors in diverse domains has become the reason for their attraction for scientific communities. Because they are analytical devices, they can detect both quantitative and qualitative biological components through the generation of detectable signals. In the recent past, biosensors witnessed significant changes and developments in their design as well as features. Nanotechnology has revolutionized sensing phenomena by increasing biodiagnostic capacity in terms of specificity, size, and cost, resulting in exceptional sensitivity and flexibility. The steep increase of non-communicable diseases across the world has emerged as a matter of concern. In parallel, the abrupt outbreak of communicable diseases poses a serious threat to mankind. For decreasing the morbidity and mortality associated with various communicable and non-communicable diseases, early detection and subsequent treatment are indispensable. Detection of different biological markers generates quantifiable signals that can be electrochemical, mass-based, optical, thermal, or piezoelectric. Speculating on the incumbent applicability and versatility of nano-biosensors in large disciplines, this review highlights different types of biosensors along with their components and detection mechanisms. Moreover, it deals with the current advancements made in biosensors and the applications of nano-biosensors in detection of various non-communicable and communicable diseases, as well as future prospects of nano-biosensors for diagnostics.

Abstract
Over 27 million individuals are affected every year worldwide with central nervous system (CNS) injuries. These injuries include but are not limited to traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI). CNS injuries remain a significant public health concern which demands reliable tools for rapid, on-sight, on-field, and point-of-care diagnostic (POC) solutions. To address these challenges, we developed a low-cost, open-source, hand-held, portable, and POC detection technology, termed as MicroDrop (μDrop), which can simultaneously detect up to eight target biomolecules and display results in both analog and digital formats. The data acquired is stored wirelessly in a cloud server for further investigation and statistical analysis. Multiplexing capability of μDrop and immuno-biosensors detects and quantifies Cleaved-Tau Protein (C-Tau) and Neuron-Filament (NFL) proteins in the blood of TBI patients. Immuno-biosensors rapidly sense the two target proteins in less than 30 min, with μDrop and a conventional potentiostat. C-Tau and NFL were selectively detected with μDrop within the dynamic range of 10 pg/mL - 100 ng/mL and the sensitivity range of 47 μA/pg mm2 - 65 μA/pg mm2. Comparing the biosensing performance with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) shows that the immuno-biosensors combined with μDrop could successfully differentiate between clinical controls and injured patients.

Abstract
A CoNi-based metal-organic framework (CoNi-MOF) nanosheet array is synthesized by the treatment of a CoNi layered double hydroxide nanosheet array on Ni foam with 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid. The CoNi-MOF nanosheet array with amino and carboxyl groups can be used to capture the human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) primary antibody (HCG Ab1). Nile Blue decorated ZnNi-MOF (NB@ZnNi-MOF) spheres immobilized with HCG secondary antibodies (HCG Ab2) are used for signal amplification. When HCG exists in an analytical sample, a sandwich structure is formed and an electrochemical signal is produced. The analytical signal generated during the detection is caused by the conversion of Co(ii) and Co(iii) in the CoNi-MOF nanosheet array. The Nile Blue of the NB@ZnNi-MOF sphere, as a kind of redox-active species, is responsible for the electrochemical signal amplification in the immunosensor. On the basis of the above advantages, the HCG immunosensor exhibits a lower limit of detection (1.85 × 10-3 mIU mL-1) and a wide linear range from 0.005 mIU mL-1 to 250 mIU mL-1. Additionally, this immunosensor is used to quantitatively detect HCG in human blood serum and shows good correlations with the standard enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), providing a high value on clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Electrochemical sensors are considered an auspicious tool to detect biomolecules (e.g., DNA, proteins, and lipids), which are valuable sources for the early diagnosis of diseases and disorders. Advances in electrochemical sensing platforms have enabled the development of a new type of biosensor, enabling label-free, non-destructive detection of viability, function, and the genetic signature of whole cells. Numerous studies have attempted to enhance both the sensitivity and selectivity of electrochemical sensors, which are the most critical parameters for assessing sensor performance. Various nanomaterials, including metal nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, graphene and its derivatives, and metal oxide nanoparticles, have been used to improve the electrical conductivity and electrocatalytic properties of working electrodes, increasing sensor sensitivity. Further modifications have been implemented to advance sensor platform selectivity and biocompatibility using biomaterials such as antibodies, aptamers, extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, and peptide composites. This paper summarizes recent electrochemical sensors designed to detect target biomolecules and animal cells (cancer cells and stem cells). We hope that this review will inspire researchers to increase their efforts to accelerate biosensor progress-enabling a prosperous future in regenerative medicine and the biomedical industry.
