Abstract
Locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) is a heterogeneous group of breast cancer that accounts for 10-30% of breast cancer cases. Despite the ongoing development of current treatment methods, LABC remains a severe and complex public health concern around the world, thus prompting the urgent requirement for innovative diagnosis and treatment strategies. The primary treatment challenges are inoperable clinical status and ineffective local control methods. With the rapid advancement of nanotechnology, inorganic nanoparticles (INPs) exhibit a potential application prospect in diagnosing and treating breast cancer. Due to the unique inherent characteristics of INPs, different functions can be performed via appropriate modifications and constructions, thus making them suitable for different imaging technology strategies and treatment schemes. INPs can improve the efficacy of conventional local radiotherapy treatment. In the face of inoperable LABC, INPs have proposed new local therapeutic methods and fostered the evolution of novel strategies such as photothermal and photodynamic therapy, magnetothermal therapy, sonodynamic therapy, and multifunctional inorganic nanoplatform. This article reviews the advances of INPs in local accurate imaging and breast cancer treatment and offers insights to overcome the existing clinical difficulties in LABC management.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a potent carcinogen, and is among the most dangerous mycotoxins in agricultural products. In this study, an ultrasensitive dual-mode immunosensor was developed for naked-eye and fluorescence detection of OTA based on Ag-doped core-shell nanohybrids (Ag@CSNH). Complete antigen-labeled Ag@CSNH (CA-Ag@CSNH) were used as a competitive bind and dual-mode probe. The diffused doping structure of CA-Ag@CSNH provided improved stability, color and fluorescence quencher performance. Antibodies modified magnetic beads were used as a capture probe. The competitive binding between OTA and CA-Ag@CSNH produced both color change and fluorescence quenching. Ultraviolet and fluorescence intensitie correlated linearly with OTA concentration ranges of 0.03-3 ng/mL and 10-10000 pg/mL, and limits of detection of 0.0235 ng/mL and 0.9921 pg/mL, respectively. The practical applicability of proposed strategy was demonstrated by analysis of OTA in spiked corn, soybean and flour samples. This study offers a new insight on multi-mode platforms for various applications.

Abstract
MicroRNA (miRNA) has broad application prospects in the early detection of various cancers. In this work, a SPRi/SERS dual-mode biosensor was developed on the same gold chip by AuNPs as the reinforcing medium. High throughput and sensitivity detection of three typical cervical cancer markers miRNA21, miRNA124 and miRNA143 were achieved based on the sandwich structure of polyA blocks-DNA capture probe/target miRNA/AuNPs-assistant probe or SERS nanoprobes. AuNPs greatly improved the SPR response due to mass increase and more sensitive refractive index changes. Meanwhile, due to the LSPR effect of AuNPs, the signal of SERS nanoprobe can be amplified. The miRNAs were detected in serum to verify its practicality. SPRi achieved detection of three miRNAs simultaneously. LODs were 6.3 fM, 5.3 fM and 4.6 fM, respectively, and wide dynamic response range of 500 pM-10 nM. While SERS assay ensured high sensitivity with LODs as low as 1 fM, 0.8 fM and 1.2 fM, respectively, and with the recoveries in the range of 90.0 %-100.2 %. The redundant detection signals of the two modes can provide more reliable data to prevent false positive or false negative detection, and have great application prospects in detection of cancer-related nucleic acids in early stage of disease.

Abstract
With the increasing emphasis on atmospheric environmental protection, it is crucial to find an efficient, direct, and accurate method to identify pollutant species in the atmosphere. To solve this problem, we designed and prepared the cascade multicavity (CMC) structure composed with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate with favorable light transmittance and flexibility. The multicavity structure distributed on the surface introducing the homogeneous connecting holes endows the structure to more fully utilize the incident light while slowing the gas movement rate. Theoretical and experimental results have demonstrated that the Ag NPs/cascade multicavity (Ag-CMC) SERS substrate is a highly sensitive SERS substrate that can be used for in situ detection of gases under non-perpendicularly incident laser irradiation or bending of the substrate. We believe that the SERS substrate can provide a more efficient and feasible way for in situ detection of gaseous pollutants.

Abstract
The identification of Chinese medicinal herbs occupies a crucial part in the development of the food and drug market. Although molecular identification based on real-time PCR offers good versatility and uniform digital standards compared with traditional methods, such as morphology, the dependence on large-scale equipment hinders spot detection and marketable applications. In this study, we developed a DNA nanoclaw for colorimetric detection and visible on-site identification of Chinese medicines. When specific miRNA is present, the DNAzyme is activated and cleaves the substrate strand, triggering the catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) reaction and forming branched DNA junctions on AuNP-I. This can then capture AuNP-II through hybridization and facilitate their aggregation, resulting in a noticeable color change that is observable to the naked eye. By harnessing the dual amplification of DNAzyme and CHA, this highly sensitive nanoprobe successfully achieved specific identification of Chinese medicines. This offers a new perspective for on-site testing in the herbal market.

Abstract
Localized surface plasmonic resonance (LSPR) biosensing using optical fibers has gained popularity due to its label-free approach and high sensitivity to changes in the nanoparticle surface's local index of refraction. However, improving sensitivity remains a challenge. In this study, a two-step approach was employed to fabricate a composite structure using gold nanoparticles and monolayer graphene (Gr-AuNPs). The combination of AuNPs and graphene membrane demonstrated high potential for Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) fiber sensors. The Gr-AuNPs sensor successfully detected R6G molecules with a low detection limit of 10-12 M, indicating promising SERS activity. Numerical simulations confirmed that the graphene generated densely hot spots in the nanogap region between plasmonic layers. It's interesting that the proposed SPR-SERS Sensor can detect both glucose and thiram. This demonstrates the sensors practicality and can help with a basic environmental need to find leftover pesticides in the soil. The combination of SPR-SERS dual-mode detection provides more options for detecting and verifying data, increasing the precision and repeatability of experiments.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) hold potential as useful biomarkers for early diagnosis and evaluation of diverse cancers, but their low abundance and short length make the detection of miRNAs face low sensitivity and accuracy. Herein, a photoluminescence (PL)-resonance light scattering (RLS) dual-mode method was developed for the sensitive and accurate detection of miRNA-141 using CdTe quantum dots (QDs) and Au nanoparticles. The presence of miRNA-141 induced PL quenching and RLS increasing. The limit of detection (LOD) was as low as 3.7 fM, and the miRNA-141 was detected linearly in a range from 10 fM to 10 nM. The dual signals generated no mutual interference and were detected using the same spectrophotometer, allowing for mutual validation to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the detection results. This study proposes valuable references for constructing dual-mode detection methods.

Abstract
Accurate detection of cancer-associated mRNAs is beneficial to early diagnosis and potential treatment of cancer. Herein, for the first time, we developed a novel CRISPR/Cas12a-powered electrochemical/fluorescent (EC/FL) dual-mode controlled-release homogeneous biosensor for mRNA detection. A functionalized ssDNA P2-capped Fe3O4-NH2 loaded with methylene blue (P2@MB-Fe3O4-NH2) was synthesized as the signal probe, while survivin mRNA was chosen as the target RNA. In the presence of the target mRNA, the nicking endonuclease-mediated rolling circle amplification (NEM-RCA) was triggered to produce significant amounts of ssDNA, activating the collateral activity of Cas12a toward the surrounding single-stranded DNA. Thus, the ssDNA P1 completely complementary to ssDNA P2 was cleaved, resulting in that the ssDNA P2 bio-gate on Fe3O4-NH2 could not be opened due to electrostatic interactions. As a result, there was no or only a little MB in the supernatant after magnetic separation, and the measured EC/FL signal was exceedingly weak. On the contrary, the ssDNA P2 bio-gate was opened, enabling MB to be released into the supernatant, and generating an obvious EC/FL signal. Benefiting from the accuracy of EC/FL dual-mode cross-verification, high amplification efficiency, high specificity of NEM-RCA and CRISPR/Cas12a, and high loading of mesoporous Fe3O4-NH2 on signal molecules, the strategy shows aM-level sensitivity and single-base mismatch specificity. More importantly, the practical applicability of this dual-mode strategy was confirmed by mRNA quantification in complex serum environments and tumor cell lysates, providing a new way for developing a powerful disease diagnosis tool.

Abstract
DNA-mediated self-assembly technology with good sensitivity and affinity ability has been rapidly developed in the field of probe sensing. The efficient and accurate quantification of lactoferrin (Lac) and iron ions (Fe3+) in human serum and milk samples by the probe sensing method can provide useful clues for human health and early diagnosis of anemia. In this paper, contractile hairpin DNA-mediated dual-mode probes of Fe3O4/Ag-ZIF8/graphitic quantum dot (Fe3O4/Ag-ZIF8/GQD) NPs were prepared to realize the simultaneous quantification of Lac by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and Fe3+ by fluorescence (FL). In the presence of targets, these dual-mode probes would be triggered by the recognition of aptamer and release GQDs to produce FL response. Meanwhile, the complementary DNA began to shrink and form a new hairpin structure on the surface of Fe3O4/Ag, which produced hot spots and generated a good SERS response. Thus, the proposed dual-mode analytical strategy possessed excellent selectivity, sensitivity, and accuracy due to the dual-mode switchable signals from "off" to "on" in SERS mode and from "on" to "off" in FL mode. Under the optimized conditions, a good linear range was obtained in the range of 0.5-100.0 μg/L for Lac and 0.01-5.0 μmol/L for Fe3+ and with detection limits of 0.14 μg/L and 3.8 nmol/L, respectively. Finally, the contractile hairpin DNA-mediated SERS-FL dual-mode probes were successfully applied in the simultaneous quantification of iron ion and Lac in human serum and milk samples.

Abstract
Hybrid materials or hybrids incorporating organic and inorganic constituents are emerging as a very potent and promising class of materials due to the diverse but complementary nature of their properties. This complementarity leads to a perfect synergy of properties of the desired materials and products as well as to an extensive range of their application areas. Recently, we have overviewed and classified hybrid materials describing inorganics-in-organics in Part-I (Saveleva, et al., Front. Chem., 2019, 7, 179). Here, we extend that work in Part-II describing organics-on-inorganics, i.e., inorganic materials modified by organic moieties, their structure and functionalities. Inorganic constituents comprise of colloids/nanoparticles and flat surfaces/matrices comprise of metallic (noble metal, metal oxide, metal-organic framework, magnetic nanoparticles, alloy) and non-metallic (minerals, clays, carbons, and ceramics) materials; while organic additives can include molecules (polymers, fluorescence dyes, surfactants), biomolecules (proteins, carbohydtrates, antibodies and nucleic acids) and even higher-level organisms such as cells, bacteria, and microorganisms. Similarly to what was described in Part-I, we look at similar and dissimilar properties of organic-inorganic materials summarizing those bringing complementarity and composition. A broad range of applications of these hybrid materials is also presented whose development is spurred by engaging different scientific research communities.

Abstract
Silicon photonic (SiP) sensors offer a promising platform for robust and low-cost decentralized diagnostics due to their high scalability, low limit of detection, and ability to integrate multiple sensors for multiplexed analyte detection. Their CMOS-compatible fabrication enables chip-scale miniaturization, high scalability, and low-cost mass production. Sensitive, specific detection with silicon photonic sensors is afforded through biofunctionalization of the sensor surface; consequently, this functionalization chemistry is inextricably linked to sensor performance. In this review, we first highlight the biofunctionalization needs for SiP biosensors, including sensitivity, specificity, cost, shelf-stability, and replicability and establish a set of performance criteria. We then benchmark biofunctionalization strategies for SiP biosensors against these criteria, organizing the review around three key aspects: bioreceptor selection, immobilization strategies, and patterning techniques. First, we evaluate bioreceptors, including antibodies, aptamers, nucleic acid probes, molecularly imprinted polymers, peptides, glycans, and lectins. We then compare adsorption, bioaffinity, and covalent chemistries for immobilizing bioreceptors on SiP surfaces. Finally, we compare biopatterning techniques for spatially controlling and multiplexing the biofunctionalization of SiP sensors, including microcontact printing, pin- and pipette-based spotting, microfluidic patterning in channels, inkjet printing, and microfluidic probes.

Localized DNA tetrahedrons assisted catalytic hairpin assembly for the rapid and sensitive profiling of small extracellular vesicle-associated microRNAs. J Nanobiotechnology 2022; 20:503.

Abstract
The profiling of small extracellular vesicle-associated microRNAs (sEV-miRNAs) plays a vital role in cancer diagnosis and monitoring. However, detecting sEV-miRNAs with low expression in clinical samples remains challenging. Herein, we propose a novel electrochemical biosensor using localized DNA tetrahedron-assisted catalytic hairpin assembly (LDT-CHA) for sEV-miRNA determination. The LDT-CHA contained localized DNA tetrahedrons with CHA substrates, leveraging an efficient localized reaction to enable sensitive and rapid sEV-miRNA measurement. Based on the LDT-CHA, the proposed platform can quantitatively detect sEV-miRNA down to 25 aM in 30 min with outstanding specificity. For accurate diagnosis of gastric cancer patients, a combination of LDT-CHA and a panel of four sEV-miRNAs (sEV-miR-1246, sEV-miR-21, sEV-miR-183-5P, and sEV-miR-142-5P) was employed in a gastric cancer cohort. Compared with diagnosis with single sEV-miRNA, the proposed platform demonstrated a higher accuracy of 88.3% for early gastric tumor diagnoses with higher efficiency (AUC: 0.883) and great potential for treatment monitoring. Thus, this study provides a promising method for the bioanalysis and determination of the clinical applications of LDT-CHA.

Abstract
The visualization of protein dimerization on live cells is an urgent need and of vital importance for facile monitoring the signal transduction during intercellular communication. Herein, a highly sensitive and specific SERS strategy for simultaneously imaging dual homodimerizations of membrane proteins on single live cells was proposed by networking of AuNPs-based dual-recognition probes (dual-RPs) and SERS tags via proximity ligation-assisted catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA). The dual-RPs were prepared by comodifying hairpin-structured ssDNAs H1-Met and H1-TβRII on 50 nm AuNPs and two SERS tags for membrane proteins Met and TβRII were prepared respectively by labeling their corresponding Raman molecules and hairpin-structured single-stranded DNAs H2-Met or H2-TβRII on 15 nm AuNPs. The membrane proteins were ligated proximally by specific aptamers, and the dimerizations of proteins resulted in the proximity ligation-assisted CHA-based networking of dual-RPs and SERS tags to form 15Au-50Au network nanostructures with significantly enhanced SERS effect. The SERS strategy for visualizing the membrane protein dimerization was established and the good performance on simultaneously SERS imaging dual dimerizations of membrane proteins (i.e., Met-Met and TβRII-TβRII) was confirmed. Furthermore, the membrane protein dimerization-based signaling pathways between cancer cells and stromal cells or stem cells were observed by SERS, which indicates that the proposed SERS strategy is a good method for high-sensitivity monitoring of membrane proteins dimerizations-based multiple intercellular signal transductions in a natural and complex cellular microenvironment.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is widely used as a powerful analytical technology in cutting-edge areas such as food safety, biology, chemistry, and medical diagnosis, providing ultra-fast, ultra-sensitive, nondestructive characterization and achieving ultra-high detection sensitivity even down to the single-molecule level. Development of Raman spectroscopy is strongly dependent on high-performance SERS substrates, which have long evolved from the early days of rough metal electrodes to periodic nanopatterned arrays building on solid supporting substrates. For rigid SERS substrates, however, their applications are restricted by sophisticated pretreatments for detecting solid samples with non-planar surfaces. It is therefore essential to reassert the principles in constructing flexible SERS substrates. Herein, we comprehensively review the state-of-the-art in understanding, preparing and using flexible SERS. The basic mechanisms behind the flexible SERS are briefly outlined, typical design strategies are highlighted and diversified selection of materials in preparing flexible SERS substrates are reviewed. Then the recent achievements of various interdisciplinary applications based on flexible SERS substrates are summarized. Finally, the challenges and perspectives for future evolution of flexible SERS and their applications are demonstrated. We propose new research directions focused on stimulating the real potential of SERS as an advanced analytical technique for commercialization.

Abstract
Development of theranostic nanosystems integrating cascaded surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) imaging and gene silencing therapy for accurate cancer diagnosis and treatment is still a big challenge and rarely reported. Herein, a novel Au nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based theranostic nanosystem containing AuNP-Ys and AuNP-Ds for highly sensitive and specific cancer diagnosis and treatment was proposed for cascaded SERS imaging of intracellular cancer-related miR-106a and miR-106a-triggered DNAzyme-based dual gene-silencing therapy of cancer cells. The AuNP-Ys were prepared by modifying the AuNPs with specially designed Y-motifs, and the AuNP-Ds were obtained by colabeling Raman molecules and dsDNA linkers on AuNPs. When identifying the intracellular cancer-related miRNAs, the Y-motifs and dsDNA linkers undergoes miRNA-triggered ATP-driven conformational transitions and releases the miRNA for recycling, which results in the formation of AuNP network nanostructures to generate significantly enhanced SERS signals for sensitive identification of the cancer cells as well as the amplification and specific activation of DNAzymes to catalyze the Mg2+-assisted cleavage of the Survivin and c-Jun mRNAs for effective dual gene-silencing therapy of cancer cells. The AuNP-based theranostic nanosystem achieves the synergism of target-triggered SERS imaging and DNAzyme-based dual gene-silencing therapy with enhanced specificity, sensitivity, and curative effect, which can be a powerful tool for accurate diagnosis and efficient treatment of cancers.

Abstract
Influenza viruses and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) have contributed to severe respiratory infections, causing huge economic and healthcare burdens. To achieve rapid and precise detection of influenza viruses and RSV, we proposed a catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) combined with the lateral flow immunoassay (CHA-LFIA) detection method. The presence of the target RNA triggers the initiation of CHA circuits. H1/H2 complexes, the amplified signal products, which were labeled with digoxin and biotin, were detected with a highly sensitive lateral flow immunoassay system. The sensitivity of the CHA-LFIA system to influenza A and B viruses and RSV reached up to 1, 1, and 5 pM, respectively. In addition, this method exhibited excellent capability for differentiating between target RNA and base-mismatched RNA. The results demonstrated that an enzyme-free, rapid, highly sensitive, and specific method had been developed to detect influenza A and B viruses and RSV.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has emerged as one of the most promising platforms for various biosensing applications. These sensing systems encompass the advantages of specificity, ultra-high sensitivity, stability, low cost, repeatability, and easy-to-use methods. Moreover, their ability to offer a molecular fingerprint and identify the target analyte at low levels make SERS a promising technique for detecting circulating cancer biomarkers with greater sensitivity and reliability. Among the various circulating biomolecules, oncomiRs are emerging as prominent biomarkers for the early screening of breast cancers (BCs). In this review, we provide a comprehensive understanding of different SERS-based biosensors and their application to identify BC-specific oncomiRs. We also discuss different SERS-based sensing strategies, nano-analytical frameworks, and challenges to be addressed for effective clinical translation.

Abstract
RNA interference (RNAi) is being extensively investigated as a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment. However, RNAi-based therapeutics have not yet been used to treat cancer because of their instability and the difficulty of microRNA (miRNA) delivery. Plasmonic nanoparticle-based RNAi nanotherapeutics have been developed for accurate and sensitive diagnosis and a strong therapeutic effect on cancers by leveraging their ease-of-use and specific properties such as photothermal conversion. In this review, recent strategies and advances in plasmonic nanoparticle-based miRNA delivery are briefly presented to facilitate the detection and treatment of several cancers. The challenges and potential opportunities afforded by the RNAi-based theragnosis field are discussed. We expect that the RNAi-integrated plasmonic nanotherapeutics discussed in this review can provide insights for the early diagnosis and effective treatment of cancer.

Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26216432. [PMID: 34770841 PMCID: PMC8588017 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26216432] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
MicroRNA160 plays a crucial role in plant development by negatively regulating the auxin response factors (ARFs). In this manuscript, we design an automatic molecule machine (AMM) based on the dual catalytic hairpin assembly (D-CHA) strategy for the signal amplification detection of miRNA160. The detection system contains four hairpin-shaped DNA probes (HP1, HP2, HP3, and HP4). For HP1, the loop is designed to be complementary to miRNA160. A fragment of DNA with the same sequences as miRNA160 is separated into two pieces that are connected at the 3′ end of HP2 and 5′ end of HP3, respectively. In the presence of the target, four HPs are successively dissolved by the first catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA1), forming a four-way DNA junction (F-DJ) that enables the rearrangement of separated DNA fragments at the end of HP2 and HP3 and serving as an integrated target analogue for initiating the second CHA reaction, generating an enhanced fluorescence signal. Assay experiments demonstrate that D-CHA has a better performance compared with traditional CHA, achieving the detection limit as low as 10 pM for miRNA160 as deduced from its corresponding DNA surrogates. Moreover, non-target miRNAs, as well as single-base mutation targets, can be detected. Overall, the D-CHA strategy provides a competitive method for plant miRNAs detection.
