Abstract
Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) has shown great competitiveness in point-of-care testing due to its flexibility and simplicity. Dyed polymer microspheres are one of the most widely used marker particles for signal presentation as they are very convenient for visual interpretation, which is one of the most attractive features of LFIA. The color intensity, as the most critical factor, is directly related to the visual effect. In this work, a physical-chemical dual-binding strategy was proposed for the preparation of functionalized dyed microspheres. Bifunctional seed microspheres were synthesized by introducing 4-vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC) into the soap-free emulsion polymerization process, and the effective immobilization of dyes inside and on the surface of the polymer microspheres was achieved by covalent bonding and swelling methods. The microspheres were characterized by SEM, FT-IR spectroscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. The results showed that the microspheres containing VBC were spherical with an average particle size of 300 nm. When the microspheres were prepared by adding 10 wt% VBC relative to the total monomer, the immobilization amount of 1-[[4-[(dimethylphenyl)azo]dimethyl phenyl]azo]-2-naphthol (Red-27) was increased to 180 mg g-1, which was 1.8 times that of the microspheres without VBC. The resulting nanomaterials were successfully used to establish a lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of COVID-19 virus N protein. The linear response concentration range was 2.64-87.84 COI, and the detection limit was 14.95 COI.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP-7) is a secreted endopeptidase involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix components and the activation of cytokines and growth factors. The regulation of MMP-7 can be transcriptionally regulated by AP-1 or Wnt/β-catenin or post-translationally by proteolytic activation. MMP-7 expression is low or absent in the healthy kidney, but is significantly upregulated in kidney injury, including AKI and CKD. The function of MMP-7 in kidney disease may differ for CKD and AKI; it may have a profibrotic role in CKD and an anti-apoptotic and regenerative function in AKI. Additionally, the potential of MMP-7 as a biomarker has been studied in different kidney diseases, and the results are promising. Recently, combined unbiased kidney proteomics and transcriptomics approaches identified kidney MMP-7 as the protein having the strongest association with both fibrosis and eGFR and confirmed the predictive role of plasma MMP-7 levels for kidney function decline in over 11 000 individuals. Additionally, urinary MMP-7, combined with urinary cystatin C (CysC) and retinol binding protein (RBP) was reported to provide information on tubular injury in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and minimal change disease. We now present an overview of research on MMP-7 expression and function in kidney diseases and discuss its potential as a biomarker of kidney diseases.

Abstract
Vancomycin (VAN), a glycopeptide antibiotic, is the preferred therapeutic agent for treating Gram-positive bacteria. Rapid and precise quantification of VAN levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma is crucial for optimized drug administration, particularly among elderly patients. Herein, we introduce a novel clinical test strip utilizing colloidal gold competitive immunoassay technology for the expedient detection of VAN. This test strip enables the detection of VAN concentrations in clinical samples such as plasma within 10 min and has a limit of detection of 10.3 ng/mL, with an inhibitory concentration 50% (IC50) value of 44.5 ng/mL. Furthermore, we used the test strip for pharmacokinetic analysis of VAN in the CSF and plasma of beagle dogs. Our results provide valuable insights into the fluctuations of the drug concentration in the CSF and plasma over a 24 h period after a single intravenous dose of 12 mg/kg. The test strip results were compared with the results obtained via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry methods, and the measured VAN concentrations in the CSF and plasma via both of the methods showed excellent agreement.

Abstract
Chitinase 3-like 1 (CH3L1) and liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) are promising biomarkers for the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI). Here, a highly sensitive method for the quantitative detection of CH3L1 and L-FABP by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) based on graphene oxide/gold and silver core-shell nanoparticles (GO/Au@Ag NPs) was proposed. The results showed that such GO/Au@Ag substrate can achieve rapid sensing of CH3L1 and L-FABP with a wide response range (2 × 10-1 to 2 × 10-8 mg/mL and 1.2 × 10-1 to 1.2 × 10-8 mg/mL, respectively) and high sensitivity. The detection limits of CH3L1 and L-FABP were 1.21 × 10-8 mg/mL and 0.62 × 10-8 mg/mL, respectively. In addition, the simultaneous detection of the two biomarkers in serum was demonstrated, showing the feasibility of this method in the complex biological environment. The detection of CH3L1 and L-FABP will greatly improve the early diagnosis and intervention of AKI.

Diabetol Metab Syndr 2023; 15:22. [PMID: 36793092 PMCID: PMC9933377 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-023-00995-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a serious complication that begins with albuminuria and often leads to a rapid progressive decline in renal function. Niclosamide is a potent inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, which controls the expression of multiple genes of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which in turn is influences the progression of DKD. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of niclosamide as adjuvant therapy on DKD. METHODS Out of 127 patients screened for eligibility, 60 patients completed the study. After randomization, 30 patients in the niclosamide arm received ramipril plus niclosamide, and 30 patients in the control arm received ramipril only for 6 months. The primary outcomes were the changes in urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR), serum creatinine, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The secondary outcomes were measurements of urinary matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7), 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), and podocalyxin (PCX). Comparisons between the two arms were done using student t-test. Correlation analysis was done using Pearson correlation. RESULTS Niclosamide decreased UACR by 24% (95% CI - 30 to - 18.3%) while there was a rise in UACR in the control arm by 11% (95% CI 4 to 18.2%) after 6 months (P < 0.001). Moreover, a significant reduction in MMP-7 and PCX was noticed in the niclosamide arm. Regression analysis revealed a strong association between MMP-7, which is a noninvasive biomarker predicting the activity of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling, and UACR. A 1 mg/dL decline in MMP-7 level was associated with a 25 mg/g lowering in UACR (B = 24.95, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The addition of niclosamide to patients with diabetic kidney disease receiving an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor significantly reduces albumin excretion. Further larger-scale trials are needed to confirm our results. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was prospectively registered on clinicaltrial.gov on March 23, 2020, with identification code NCT04317430.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a group of zinc and calcium endopeptidases which cleave extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. They are also involved in the degradation of cell surface components and regulate multiple cellular processes, cell to cell interactions, cell proliferation, and cell signaling pathways. MMPs function in close interaction with the endogenous tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMPs), both of which regulate cell turnover, modulate various growth factors, and participate in the progression of tissue fibrosis and apoptosis. The multiple roles of MMPs and TIMPs are continuously elucidated in kidney development and repair, as well as in a number of kidney diseases. This chapter focuses on the current findings of the significance of MMPs and TIMPs in a wide range of kidney diseases, whether they result from kidney tissue changes, hemodynamic alterations, tubular epithelial cell apoptosis, inflammation, or fibrosis. In addition, the potential use of these endopeptidases as biomarkers of renal dysfunction and as targets for therapeutic interventions to attenuate kidney disease are also explored in this review.

Abstract
Establishing personalized medication plans for patients to maximize therapeutic efficacy and minimize the toxicity of vancomycin (VAN) requires rapid, simple, and accurate monitoring of VAN concentration in body fluid. In this study, we have developed a simple and rapid analytical method by integrating Eu (III) chelate nanoparticles (CN-EUs) and lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) to achieve the real-time monitoring of VAN concentration in serum within 15 min. This approach was performed on nitrocellulose (NC) membrane assembled LFIA strips via indirect competitive immunoassay and exhibited a wide linear range of detection (0.1–80 μg*ml−1) with a low limit of detection (69.2 ng*ml−1). The coefficients of variation (CV) of the intra- and inter-assay in the detection of VAN were 7.12–8.53% and 8.46–11.82%, respectively. The dilution test and specificity indicated this method had a stability that was not affected by the serum matrix and some other antibiotics. Furthermore, the applicability of the proposed method was assessed by comparing the determined results with those measured by LC-MS/MS, showing a satisfactory correlation (R2 = 0.9713). The proposed CN-EUs-based LFIA manifested promising analytical performance, which showed potential value in the real-time monitoring of VAN and could help optimize the clinical use of more antibiotics.

Abstract
Methylene blue (MB) adsorption onto a two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (2D MoS2)/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite sitting on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) is used to develop a new sensitive label-free electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) cancer biomarkers. The 2D MoS2/GO nanocomposite deposited onto an SPCE provides a large specific surface area, fast electron transfer, and exceptional electrical conductivity. Furthermore, MB adsorbed onto the 2D MoS2/GO nanocomposite architecture can be used for signal amplification in electrochemical immunosensors. Moreover, an immunosensor platform was fabricated by the adsorption of anti-MMP-7 capture antibodies onto the MB/2D MoS2/GO nanocomposite surface via electrostatic interactions for the detection of the MMP-7 immunocomplex. Under optimum conditions, the label-free immunosensor exhibits a decrease in the current response for MB corresponding to the MMP-7 concentration. The sensor affords a linear logarithmic range of 0.010-75 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.007 ng mL-1. The developed electrochemical immunosensor provides high selectivity, good reproducibility, and excellent stability. Furthermore, the proposed immunosensor can be applied for the detection of MMP-7 in human serum samples with good recovery. Thus, this device can be applied for the early clinical diagnosis of pancreatic and colorectal cancers.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are closely associated with various physiological and pathological processes, and have been regarded as potential biomarkers for severe diseases including cancer. Accurate determination of MMPs would advance our understanding of their roles in disease progression, and is of great significance for disease diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of the developed bioassays/biosensors for detection of MMPs, and highlight the recent advancement in nanomaterial-based immunoassays for MMP abundance measurements and nanomaterial-based biosensors for MMP activity determination. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based immunoassays provide information about total levels of MMPs with high specificity and sensitivity, while target-based biosensors measure the amounts of active MMPs, and allow imaging of MMP activities in vivo. For multiplex and high-throughput analysis of MMPs, microfluidics and microarray-based assays are described. Additionally, we put forward the existing challenges and future prospects from our perspective.

Abstract
Several studies have investigated the use of simple in vitro tests for the assessment of rabies antibody titers in serum samples from vaccinated human subjects, which would allow the effectiveness of rabies vaccination to be conveniently evaluated. To this end, a novel time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) for the assessment of rabies antibody titers was established in this study for evaluating the effectiveness of protection against rabies. The TRFIA had a satisfactory limit of detection value (0.035 IU/mL) under optimal conditions. Additionally, the application of the TRFIA was demonstrated in 68 serum samples with satisfactory results. The coefficient variations (CVs) were all <10%, and the recoveries were in the range of 90-110%. The correlation coefficient of titer values obtained using the present TRFIA and the rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT) was 0.733, with a coincidence rate regarding the evaluation results (protected or not protected by vaccination) of 100%. The preliminary results confirmed that the TRFIA had a higher performance than an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and could potentially replace the ELISA. Based on these results, the novel TRFIA appears to be a convenient tool for the evaluation of rabies vaccination results based on serum samples from vaccinated human subjects.

Abstract
Proteinuric chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains a major health problem worldwide. While it is well established that the progression of primary glomerular disease induces tubulointerstitial lesions, how tubular injury triggers glomerular damage is poorly understood. We hypothesized that injured tubules secrete mediators that adversely affect glomerular health. To test this, we used conditional knockout mice with tubule-specific ablation of β-catenin (Ksp-β-cat-/-) and subjected them to chronic angiotensin II (Ang II) infusion or Adriamycin. Compared with control mice, Ksp-β-cat-/- mice were dramatically protected from proteinuria and glomerular damage. MMP-7, a downstream target of β-catenin, was upregulated in treated control mice, but this induction was blunted in the Ksp-β-cat-/- littermates. Incubation of isolated glomeruli with MMP-7 ex vivo led to nephrin depletion and impaired glomerular permeability. Furthermore, MMP-7 specifically and directly degraded nephrin in cultured glomeruli or cell-free systems, and this effect was dependent on its proteolytic activity. In vivo, expression or infusion of exogenous MMP-7 caused proteinuria, and genetic ablation of MMP-7 protected mice from Ang II-induced proteinuria and glomerular injury. Collectively, these results demonstrate that β-catenin-driven MMP-7 release from renal tubules promotes glomerular injury via direct degradation of the key slit diaphragm protein nephrin.

Abstract
Background This study investigated the risk factors affecting development and prognosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Material/Methods A total of 501 ARDS cases were retrospectively enrolled (296 males and 205 females) admitted to the First People’s Hospital of Lianyungang from Aug 2015 to Aug 2017. Multivariable logistic modeling was conducted to select significant variables, and the assigned integer score was proportional to the adjusted odds ratio (OR). Then, the sum of weighted variables was utilized to estimate the score in patients. Results Patients with ARDS who had unconsciousness (OR=2.778, 95% CI: 1.396–5.528), hypertension (OR=1.771, 95% CI: 1.089–2.881), ARDS (moderate–severe) (OR=1.630, 95% CI: 1.027–2.588), AST (OR=2.093, 95% CI: 1.251–3.499), and D-dimer (OR=2.372, 95% CI: 1.316–4.275) were more likely to also have AKI. The score was allocated in proportion to the corresponding adjusted OR, hypertension, ARDS (moderate–severe), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), D-dimer (2 points each), and unconsciousness (3 points). The incidences of AKI in group A (score 0–2, n=9), group B (score 3–4, n=16), group C (score 5–6, n=33), and group D (score ≥7, n=72) were 10.98%, 16.00%, 31.13%, and 49.66%, respectively (P<0.001). Higher scores were associated with higher prevalence of AKI, and the trend was statistically significant (P<0.001). Conclusions This scoring system may provide a risk-integrative evaluation for AKI in patients with ARDS.
