Abstract
Cancer is one of the serious threats to public life and health. Early diagnosis, real-time monitoring, and individualized treatment are the keys to improve the survival rate and prolong the survival time of cancer patients. Liquid biopsy is a potential technique for cancer early diagnosis due to its non-invasive and continuous monitoring properties. However, most current liquid biopsy techniques lack the ability to detect cancers at the early stage. Therefore, effective detection of a variety of cancers is expected through the combination of various techniques. Recently, DNA frameworks with tailorable functionality and precise addressability have attracted wide spread attention in biomedical applications, especially in detecting cancer biomarkers such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), exosomes and circulating tumor nucleic acid (ctNA). Encouragingly, DNA frameworks perform outstanding in detecting these cancer markers, but also face some challenges and opportunities. In this review, we first briefly introduced the development of DNA frameworks and its typical structural characteristics and advantages. Then, we mainly focus on the recent progress of DNA frameworks in detecting commonly used cancer markers in liquid-biopsy. We summarize the advantages and applications of DNA frameworks for detecting CTCs, exosomes and ctNA. Furthermore, we provide an outlook on the possible opportunities and challenges for exploiting the structural advantages of DNA frameworks in the field of cancer diagnosis. Finally, we envision the marriage of DNA frameworks with other emerging materials and technologies to develop the next generation of disease diagnostic biosensors.

Bimetallic AuNR@AgNCs for ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering sensing of dithianon in apple juice. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1292:342199. [PMID: 38309856 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.342199] [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: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a bimetallic surfaced-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-active substrate consisting of AuNR@AgNCs was proposed for the rapid detection of dithianon. Due to the significant synergistic enhancement of the core-shell nanocuboids, the obtained AuNR@AgNC substrate exhibited excellent SERS performance. The simulation findings supported the practical SERS results and demonstrated that interactions were mainly maintained by the nitrile functional group. The AuNR@AgNCs could be used to detect dithianon with an LOD value of 20 nM. Moreover, dithianon in river water and apple juice could be detected with recovery in the satisfactory ranges of 97.41%-98.35% and 97.77%-98.70%, respectively, by using this substrate under optimal conditions, indicating that the AuNR@AgNC substrate could serve as an excellent SERS detection platform for pesticide residues in fruit.

Abstract
Early clinical diagnosis, effective intraoperative guidance, and an accurate prognosis can lead to timely and effective medical treatment. The current conventional clinical methods have several limitations. Therefore, there is a need to develop faster and more reliable clinical detection, treatment, and monitoring methods to enhance their clinical applications. Raman spectroscopy is noninvasive and provides highly specific information about the molecular structure and biochemical composition of analytes in a rapid and accurate manner. It has a wide range of applications in biomedicine, materials, and clinical settings. This review primarily focuses on the application of Raman spectroscopy in clinical medicine. The advantages and limitations of Raman spectroscopy over traditional clinical methods are discussed. In addition, the advantages of combining Raman spectroscopy with machine learning, nanoparticles, and probes are demonstrated, thereby extending its applicability to different clinical phases. Examples of the clinical applications of Raman spectroscopy over the last 3 years are also integrated. Finally, various prospective approaches based on Raman spectroscopy in clinical studies are surveyed, and current challenges are discussed.

[PMID: 37722343 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125198] [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: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/20/2023]
Abstract
Genomic biomarkers of cancer are based on changes in nucleic acids, which include abnormal expression levels of some miRNAs, point mutations in DNA sequences, and altered levels of DNA methylation. The presence of tumor-related nucleic acids in body fluids (blood, saliva, or urine) makes it possible to achieve a non-invasive early-stage cancer diagnosis. Currently existing techniques for the discovery of nucleic acids require complex, time-consuming, costly assays and have limited multiplexing abilities. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a vibrational spectroscopy technique that is able to provide molecular specificity combined with trace sensitivity. SERS has gained research attention as a tool for the detection of nucleic acids because of its promising potential: label-free SERS can decrease the complexity of assays currently used with fluorescence-based detection due to the absence of the label, while labeled SERS may outperform the gold standard in terms of the multiplexing ability. The first papers about SERS-based methods for the measurement of genomic biomarkers were written in 2008, and since then, more than 150 papers have been published. The aim of this paper is to review and evaluate the proposed SERS-based methods in terms of their level of development and their potential for liquid biopsy application, as well as to contribute to their further evolution by attracting research attention to the field. This goal will be reached by grouping, on the basis of their experimental protocol, all the published manuscripts on the topic and evaluating each group in terms of its limit of detection and applicability to real body fluids. Thus, the methods are classified according to their working principles into five main groups, including capture-based, displacement-based, sandwich-based, enzyme-assisted, and specialized protocols.

Abstract
Urological cancers such as bladder or prostate cancer represent one of the most malignant tumors that accounts for an extremely high mortality. However, conventionally standard diagnostics for urological cancers are hardly available in low-resource settings. We developed herein a hand-held fluorescent imaging platform by integrating a multiplexed isothermal exponential amplification reaction (EXPAR) with a microgel-enriched methodology for sensitive profiling of quaternary microRNAs (miRNAs) in urine and quick diagnosis of urological cancers at the early stage. The target miRNA mixtures in the urine underwent four parallel EXPARs without cross-reactivity, followed by surface concentration and hybridization by the encoded polyacrylamide microgels. This mix-and-read strategy allowed for one-pot analysis of several key miRNAs simultaneously and provided 5-fold enhancement in fluorescent detection sensitivities compared to the individual EXPAR-based assays. Four urinary miRNAs (let-7a, miRNA-155, -223, and -143) could be quantitatively determined in a wide linear range from 50 fM to 30 nM, with the limits of detection at femtomolar levels. Using a smartphone-based imaging microreader, healthy and cancerous cohorts with prostate, bladder, and renal cell cancers could be discriminated in 30 min with the accuracy >83% using linear discriminant analysis. The developed detection platform has proven to be a portable, noninvasive, and useful complement to the toolbox for miRNA-based liquid biopsies, which holds immense potential and advantage for regular and large-scale applications in early cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Natural product processing via nanotechnology has opened the door to innovative and significant applications in medical fields. On one hand, plants-derived bioactive ingredients such as phenols, pentacyclic triterpenes and flavonoids exhibit significant pharmacological activities, on another hand, most of them are hydrophobic in nature, posing challenges to their use. To overcome this issue, nanoencapsulation technology is employed to encapsulate these lipophilic compounds and enhance their bioavailability. In this regard, various nano-sized vehicles, including degradable functional polymer organic compounds, mesoporous silicon or carbon materials, offer superior stability and retention for bioactive ingredients against decomposition and loss during delivery as well as sustained release. On the other hand, some naturally occurring polymers, lipids and even microorganisms, which constitute a significant portion of Earth's biomass, show promising potential for biomedical applications as well. Through nano-processing, these natural products can be developed into nano-delivery systems with desirable characteristics for encapsulation a wide range of bioactive components and therapeutic agents, facilitating in vivo drug transport. Beyond the presentation of the most recent nanoencapsulation and nano-processing advancements with formulations mainly based on natural products, this review emphasizes the importance of their physicochemical properties at the nanoscale and their potential in disease therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Precise and specific miRNA detection plays a vital role in exploring development mechanisms of cancer disease, thereby it can significantly improve relevant prevention and treatment strategies. RESULTS In this work, a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-based microfluidic chip has been devised with a microcone array SERS substrate (MCASS) for the miR-141 detection. This substrate excels in unique SERS activity and large surface area for DNA oligonucleotide modification. As the presence of miR-141, the DNAzyme walker induced cleavage reaction took place on the finely designed and prepared dual DNA conjugated SERS nanoprobes. The SERS nanoprobes can anchor on MCASS by the DNA hybridization that achieved an impressive detection limit in the femtomolar level. SIGNIFICANCE With this integrated SERS-based microfluidic chip, we provided a miRNA detection strategy using DNAzyme walker amplification technology. It is believed that this strategy could be a powerful tool for miRNA detection and related cancer screening test.

Abstract
Biosensors developed through a sandwich approach have demonstrated favorable detection performance for exosomal programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (ExoPD-L1) detection. However, the reported PD-L1 antibodies, peptides, and aptamers utilized in these biosensors typically bind to the extracellular region, with overlapping binding sites that severely constrain the fabrication of biosensors. In this study, we present a simple approach to specifically identify and analyze ExoPD-L1 through the non-selective trapping effect of Ti3C2TX (X=-O, -F, -OH) MXene on exosomes via the formation of Ti-O-P complexation, and the selective capture of peptide-functionalized Au@MPBA (4-Mercaptophenylboronic acid) @SiO2 surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tags on ExoPD-L1. The biosensor delivered a both hypersensitive and reliable performance in exosome detection with a low limit of detection (20.74 particles/mL) in the linear range of 102 to 5×106 particles/mL. Furthermore, the biosensor demonstrated excellent stability and interference resistance in detecting ExoPD-L1 in clinical serum samples, enabling the easy differentiation of breast cancer patients from healthy controls. This work provides new insights into the design of biosensors for exosome detection and can serve as a replicable template for sandwich immunoassay detection for other types of sensors, including but not limited to SERS.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are emerging as biomarker candidates for early detection of prostate cancer. Studies compare EV-microRNA (miRNA) expression in individuals with prostate cancer (PCa) with cancer-free samples for diagnostic purposes. The aim of this study is to review miRNA signatures to investigate the overlap between miRNAs enriched in PCa tissue and miRNAs enriched in EVs isolated from subjects with PCa biofluids (i.e., urine, serum, and plasma). Signatures dysregulated in EVs from PCa biofluids and tissue are potentially associated with the primary tumor site and might be more indicative of PCa at an early stage. A systematic review of EV-derived miRNAs and a reanalysis of PCa tissue miRNA sequencing data for comparison is presented. Articles in the literature are screened for validated miRNA dysregulation in PCa and compared with TCGA primary PCa tumor data using DESeq2. This resulted in 190 dysregulated miRNAs being identified. Thirty-one eligible studies are identified, indicating 39 dysregulated EV-derived miRNAs. The top ten markers identified as significantly dysregulated in the PCa tissue dataset TCGA (e.g., miR-30b-3p, miR-210-3p, miR-126-3p, and miR-196a-5p) have a significant expression change in EVs with the same directionality in one or several statistically significant results. This analysis highlights several less frequently studied miRNAs in PCa literature.

Abstract
With the progressive nanofabrication technology, plasmonic nanoparticles (PNPs) have been increasingly deployed in the field of biosensing. PNPs have favorable biocompatibility, conductivity, and tunable optical properties. In addition, the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of PNPs plays a vital role in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). PNPs-based SERS biosensing enables wide-ranging applications for sensitive detection and high spatial and temporal resolution imaging. Numerous reviews of PNPs in the field of SERS biosensing highlight the fabrication or applications in one or more fields. However, the specific strategies for the SERS biosensor construction had not been summarized systematically. Thus, this work offers a comprehensive overview of SERS enhancement strategies based on PNPs, with a focus on SERS label-free detection along with label detection sensing construction, as well as its challenges and future trends.

In the development of sensing platforms, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received considerable attention as potential porous crystalline nanostructures. Core-shell MOF nanoparticles (NPs) have shown different diversities, complexities, and biological functionalities, as well as significant electrochemical (EC) properties and potential bio-affinity to aptamers. As a result, the developed core-shell MOF-based aptasensors serve as highly sensitive platforms for sensing cancer biomarkers with an extremely low limit of detection (LOD). This paper aimed to provide an overview of different strategies for improving selectivity, sensitivity, and signal strength of MOF nanostructures. Then, aptamers and aptamers-modified core-shell MOFs were reviewed to address their functionalization and application in biosensing platforms. Additionally, the application of core-shell MOF-assisted EC aptasensors for detection of several tumor antigens such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), cancer antigen 125 (CA-125), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1), and other tumor markers were discussed. In conclusion, the present article reviews the advancement of potential biosensing platforms toward the detection of specific cancer biomarkers through the development of core-shell MOFs-based EC aptasensors.

Nucleic Acid Probes in Bio-Imaging and Diagnostics: Recent Advances in ODN-Based Fluorescent and Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Nanoparticle and Nanostructured Systems. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28083561. [PMID: 37110795 PMCID: PMC10141977 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28083561] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Raman nanoparticle probes are a potent class of optical labels for the interrogation of pathological and physiological processes in cells, bioassays, and tissues. Herein, we review the recent advancements in fluorescent and Raman imaging using oligodeoxyribonucleotide (ODN)-based nanoparticles and nanostructures, which show promise as effective tools for live-cell analysis. These nanodevices can be used to investigate a vast number of biological processes occurring at various levels, starting from those involving organelles, cells, tissues, and whole living organisms. ODN-based fluorescent and Raman probes have contributed to the achievement of significant advancements in the comprehension of the role played by specific analytes in pathological processes and have inaugurated new possibilities for diagnosing health conditions. The technological implications that have emerged from the studies herein described could open new avenues for innovative diagnostics aimed at identifying socially relevant diseases like cancer through the utilization of intracellular markers and/or guide surgical procedures based on fluorescent or Raman imaging. Particularly complex probe structures have been developed within the past five years, creating a versatile toolbox for live-cell analysis, with each tool possessing its own strengths and limitations for specific studies. Analyzing the literature reports in the field, we predict that the development of ODN-based fluorescent and Raman probes will continue in the near future, disclosing novel ideas on their application in therapeutic and diagnostic strategies.

Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 232:115310. [PMID: 37087985 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/25/2023]
Abstract
To achieve sensitive detection of low-content microRNA, photoelectrochemical/electrochromic dual-mode sensor with intrinsically low background signal has been developed, but the two detection modules are usually designed with a series-connected structure, which may cause signal interference and thus affect the detection reliability. To solve the above problems, a decoupled dual-mode bioassay for sensitive miRNA-21 detection with high reliability is constructed in this work, by selecting two capacitors to realize parallel amplification for the two detection modules, supplemented with a 3D DNA nanoring photoelectrode signal amplification strategy. The complete decoupling of the two detection modes, photoelectrochemical and electrochromic, as well as the use of digital multimeter, improves the reliability and accuracy of the sensor, and also frees it from dependence on electrochemical workstation, making detection more intuitive and faster. With simple structure, low cost, good reproducibility, high sensitivity, and easy operation, the capacitor-parallel-amplified decoupled photoelectrochemical/electrochromic dual-mode bioassay has broad application prospect in on-site point-of-care detection of diseases and low-cost clinical diagnosis. The design idea of decoupled dual-mode detector can also be extended to the construction of other dual-mode methods.

Abstract
The human body has several barriers that protect its integrity and shield it from mechanical, chemical, and microbial harm. The various barriers include the skin, intestinal and respiratory epithelia, blood-brain barrier (BBB), and immune system. In the present review, the focus is on the physical barriers that are formed by cell layers. The barrier function is influenced by the molecular microenvironment of the cells forming the barriers. The integrity of the barrier cell layers is maintained by the intricate balance of protein expression that is partly regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs) both in the intracellular space and the extracellular microenvironment. The detection of changes in miRNA patterns has become a major focus of diagnostic, prognostic, and disease progression, as well as therapy-response, markers using a great variety of detection systems in recent years. In the present review, we highlight the importance of liquid biopsies in assessing barrier integrity and challenges in differential miRNA detection.

Abstract
The ultrasensitive and quantitative detection of renal cancer protein biomarkers present at ultralow concentrations for early-stage cancer diagnosis requires a biosensing probe possessing ultrahigh detection sensitivity and remarkable biosensing selectivity. Here, we report an optical microfiber integrated with Ti3C2-supported gold nanorod hybrid nanointerfaces for implementation in ultrasensitive sensing of the carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) protein and renal cancer cells. Because the evanescent field of the fiber is strongly coupled with nanointerfaces in the near-infrared region, the proposed optical microfiber biosensor achieves ultrahigh-sensitivity detection of the CAIX protein biomarker with ultralow limits of detection (LODs) of 13.8 zM in pure buffer solution and 0.19 aM in 30% serum solution. In addition, the proposed sensor also successfully and specifically recognizes living renal cancer cells in cell culture media with a LOD of 180 cells/mL. This strategy may serves as a powerful biosensing platform that combines the quantification of protein biomarkers and cancer cells, resulting in a higher accuracy of early-stage renal cancer diagnosis and screenings.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor of the female reproductive system, with a very poor prognosis and high mortality rates. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are the most common treatments for ovarian cancer, with unsatisfactory results. Exosomes are a subpopulation of extracellular vesicles, which have a diameter of approximately 30-100 nm and are secreted by many different types of cells in various body fluids. Exosomes are highly stable and are effective carriers of immunotherapeutic drugs. Recent studies have shown that exosomes are involved in various cellular responses in the tumor microenvironment, influencing the development and therapeutic efficacy of ovarian cancer, and exhibiting dual roles in inhibiting and promoting tumor development. Exosomes also contain a variety of genes related to ovarian cancer immunotherapy that could be potential biomarkers for ovarian cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Undoubtedly, exosomes have great therapeutic potential in the field of ovarian cancer immunotherapy. However, translation of this idea to the clinic has not occurred. Therefore, it is important to understand how exosomes could be used in ovarian cancer immunotherapy to regulate tumor progression. In this review, we summarize the biomarkers of exosomes in different body fluids related to immunotherapy in ovarian cancer and the potential mechanisms by which exosomes influence immunotherapeutic response. We also discuss the prospects for clinical application of exosome-based immunotherapy in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
As two main types of liquid biopsy markers, both circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) play important roles in the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers. CTCs are malignant cells that detach from the original tumor tissue and enter the circulation of body fluids. sEVs are nanoscale vesicles secreted by normal cells or pathological cells. However, CTCs and sEVs in body fluids are scarce, leading to great difficulties in the accurate analysis of related diseases. For the sensitive detection of CTCs and sEVs in body fluids, various types of nucleic acid and nanomaterial-assisted signal amplification strategies have been developed. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in fluorescent detection of CTCs and sEVs in liquid biopsy based on nucleic acid and nanomaterial-assisted signal amplification strategies. We also discuss their advantages, challenges, and future prospects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to play a significant role in tumorigenesis. However, the detailed function of circRNA in prostate cancer (PCa) is still largely unknown. METHODS We quantified circTFDP2 expression in PCa tissues and adjacent normal tissues using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Colony formation, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, transwell, and in vivo progression and metastasis assays were applied to reveal the proliferation and metastatic abilities of circTFDP2 in PCa cells. Mass spectrometry, RNA pulldown, RNA-immunoprecipitation (RIP), western blotting and immunofluorescence were used for the mechanistic studies. qRT-PCR and RIP assays were used to explore the regulatory role of eIF4A3 in the biogenesis of circTFDP2. Finally, functional assays showed the effect of circTFDP2-containing exosomes on PCa cell progression. RESULTS circTFDP2 was upregulated in PCa tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Furthermore, high circTFDP2 expression was positively correlated with the Gleason score. Functionally, circTFDP2 promoted PCa cell proliferation and metastasis both in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, circTFDP2 interacted with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) protein in its DNA-binding domain to prevent it from active caspase-3-dependent cleavage, and finally relieved PCa cells from DNA damage. In addition, RNA-binding protein eIF4A3 can interact with the flanking region of circTFDP2 and promote the biogenesis of circTFDP2. Moreover, exosome-derived circTFDP2 promoted PCa cell progression. CONCLUSIONS In general, our study demonstrated that circTFDP2 promoted PCa cell progression through the PARP1/DNA damage axis, which may be a promising therapeutic target for PCa.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a type of mediator that enables intercellular communication. Moreover, EVs carry critical molecular information from parental cells, making them ideal biomarkers for clinical screening and diagnosis. Currently, several sensing technologies have been established to sensitively detect EVs. Among them, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has become a powerful analytical tool with high sensitivity and low detection limits. In this review, we first cover the biological characteristics of EVs and the principle of SERS amplification. Then, we describe the recent progress in SERS technology applied to detect EVs, including direct label-free methods and indirect labeling strategies, in which substrate fabrication and nanoprobe assembly were emphasized. Furthermore, SERS technology could also be used to characterize or monitor the behavior of programmable EVs. Finally, we discuss the prospects and issues to be addressed for the development of SERS technology for EV analysis.

Abstract
As a noninvasive detection technique, liquid biopsy plays a valuable role in cancer diagnosis, disease monitoring, and prognostic assessment. In liquid biopsies, exosomes are considered among the potential biomarkers because they are important bioinformation carriers for intercellular communication. Exosomes transport miRNAs and, thus, play an important role in the regulation of cell growth and function; therefore, detection of cancer cell-derived exosomal miRNAs (exo-miRNAs) gives effective information in liquid biopsy. The development of sensitive, convenient, and reliable exo-miRNA assays will provide new perspectives for medical diagnosis. This review presents different designs and detection strategies of recent exo-miRNA assays in terms of signal transduction and amplification, as well as signal detection. In addition, this review outlines the current attempts at bioassay methods in liquid biopsies. Lastly, the challenges and prospects of exosome bioassays are also considered.

Abstract
Exosomes are a class of the nanosized extracellular vesicles, which have emerged as representative liquid biopsy biomarkers. To date, the electrochemical nanosensors are of great significance in the exosome detection with the advantages of easy operation, high accuracy and reliable repeatability. Especially, the growing field of nano interface has provided the electrochemical sensing platforms for the accurate exosomes analysis. The incorporation of multiple nanomaterials can take advantages and synergistic properties of functional units. So, based on the integration of with nanomaterial-based signal transduction and specific biorecognition, the nano-sensing interface provides excellent electrochemical features owing to rapid mass transport and excellent conductivity. The nano-sensing interface with a wide variety of morphologies and structure also provides the large active surface area for the immobilization of bio-capturing agents. Furthermore, through the design of nanostructured electrode array, the efficiency of transducer can be greatly improved. It should be noticed that the elaboration of a proper sensor requires the profound knowledge of the nano-sensing interface. Therefore, this article presents a review of the recent advance in exosomes detection based on the electrochemical nano-sensing interface, including electrochemical analysis principles, exosome sensing mechanisms, nano-interface construction strategies, as well as the typical diagnosis application. In particular, the article is focused on the exploration of the various electrochemical sensing performance of nano-interface in the exosome detection. We have also prospected the future trend and challenge of the electrochemical nano-sensing interface for exosomes analysis in clinical cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Urologic cancers accounted for more than 2 million new cases and around 0.8 million deaths in 2020. Although surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, as well as castration for prostate cancer, remain the cornerstones for managing urologic neoplasms, they can result in severe adverse effects, poor patient compliance, and unsatisfactory survival rates, thus, it is essential to develop novel options that enable the early detection of these malignancies, together with providing accurate diagnoses, and more efficient treatment strategies. Nanomedicine represents an emerging approach that can deliver formulations or drugs across traditional biological barriers in the body and be directed to specific cell types within target organs via active targeting or passive targeting, thus, showing potential to improve the management of urologic cancers. In this review, we discussed the most recent updates on the application of nanomedicines in the diagnosis and treatment of urologic cancers, with focus on prostate, bladder and kidney tumors. We also presented the anti-tumor molecular mechanisms of newly designed nanomedicine for treating urologic cancers, mainly including image-guided surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, gene therapy, immunotherapy, and their synergetic therapy. Current studies have demonstrated the potential advantages of nanomedicine over conventional approaches. However, most developments and new findings in this area have not been validated in clinical trials yet, and therefore, efforts shall be made to translate these research insights into clinical practices for urologic cancers.
