Development of electrochemical aptasensors detecting phosphate ions on TMB substrate with epoxy-based mesoporous silica nanoparticles. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 297:134077. [PMID: 35218784 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.134077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2021] [Revised: 02/10/2022] [Accepted: 02/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
This study, it is aimed to develop an electrochemical aptasensor that can detect phosphate ions using 3.3'5.5' tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). It is based on the principle of converting the binding affinity of the target molecule phosphate ion (PO43-) into an electrochemical signal with specific aptamer sequences for the aptasensor to be developed. The aptamer structure served as a gate for the TMB to be released and was used to trap the TMB molecule in mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs). The samples for this study were characterized by transmission electron spectroscopy (TEM), Brunner-Emmet-Teller, dynamic light scattering&electrophoretic light scattering, and induction coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. According to TEM analysis, MSNPs have a morphologically hexagonal structure and an average size of 208 nm. In this study, palladium-carbon nanoparticles (Pd/C NPs) with catalytic reaction were used as an alternative to the biologically used horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme for the release of TMB in the presence of phosphate ions. The limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as 0.983 μM, the limit of determination (LOQ) was calculated as 3.276 μM, and the dynamic linear phosphate range was found to be 50-1000 μM. The most important advantage of this bio-based aptasensor assembly is that it does not contain molecules such as a protein that cannot be stored for a long time at room temperature, so its shelf life is very long compared to similar systems developed with antibodies. The proposed sensor shows good recovery in phosphate ion detection and is considered to have great potential among electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
A fluorescent reversible regulation was studied by fluorescence spectra, ultraviolet-visible spectra in the combination of molecular docking, which based on the photoinduced electron transfer(PET) from hsDNA (herring sperm DNA) to CA (cysteamine)-capped ZnSe QDs (quantum dots) and intercalation of ethidium bromide (EB) into hsDNA. It was proven that the QDs bound with the adding hsDNA by electrostatic force and formed 1:1 hsDNA-QDs complexes, leading to the PET from hsDNA to QDs, and consequently the fluorescence quenching of the QDs; with EB being added in the complex solution, it bound with hsDNA by intercalation interaction and caused hsDNA releasing from hsDNA-QDs complex with forming 2.5:1 EB-hsDNA complex, leading to the recovery of fluorescence, based on the greater binding constant (1.74 × 106 L·mol-1) of hsDNA with the embedded EB comparing to that of QDs with the captured hsDNA (4.25 × 104 L·mol-1). A good linear relationship existed between the fluorescence recovery yield and the EB concentrations under the range of 1.0-12.0 × 10-6 mol·L-1 with bare interference of related substances. This work provided some useful insights into the study of binding mechanism between DNAs with their intercalators and fluorescence bi-direction regulation, and showed great potential for the determination of trace EB.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is a human mononuclear Zn2+ metalloenzyme that converts adenosine to inosine. ADA is a validated drug target for cancer, but there has been little recent work on the development of new therapeutics against this enzyme. The lack of new advancements can be partially attributed to an absence of suitable assays for high-throughput screening (HTS) against ADA. To facilitate more rapid drug discovery efforts for this target, an in vitro assay was developed that utilizes the enzymatic conversion of a visibly emitting adenosine analogue to the corresponding fluorescent inosine analogue by ADA, which can be monitored via fluorescence intensity changes. Utilizing this assay, a library of ∼350 small molecules containing metal-binding pharmacophores (MBPs) was screened in an HTS format to identify new inhibitor scaffolds against ADA. This approach yielded a new metal-binding scaffold with a Ki value of 26±1 μM.

Abstract
A fluorescence-based assay for adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity and inhibition, which may also be formatted as an inhibitor discovery assay, is described. It relies on differences in fluorescence between an isothiazolo-based adenosine analogs (tzA) and its deaminated product, the corresponding inosine derivative (tzI), which facilitates a real-time monitoring of enzymatic activity. Inhibitors are added to the enzyme-substrate reaction mixture at various concentrations and the fluorescence signal is recorded over 10min. The percent inhibition is calculated from the signal change at 10min relative to the uninhibited reaction. The percent inhibition is plotted against inhibitor concentration and fitted to a Hill curve. IC50 values are then calculated.

Biomed Chromatogr 2020; 34:e4779. [PMID: 31845520 DOI: 10.1002/bmc.4779] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2019] [Revised: 11/04/2019] [Accepted: 12/07/2019] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
Cordycepin has recently received increased attention owing to its extensive pharmacological activity. Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is widely distributed in mammalian blood and tissues; as a result, cordycepin is quickly metabolized upon entering into the body and converted into the inactive metabolite 3'-deoxyinosine, thus limiting its activity when administered alone. We herein present a novel ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method for screening ADA inhibitors against the metabolism of cordycepin. Cordycepin and 3'-deoxyinosine were chosen as substrate and product, respectively. A proper separation was achieved for all analytes within 3 min. 3'-Deoxyinosine was quantified in the presence or absence of potential ADA inhibitors to evaluate ADA activity. The assay can simultaneously determine substrate and product, with the endogenous substance and ADA inhibitors added not interfering in its activity. After optimizing the enzymatic incubation and UHPLC-MS/MS conditions, Km and Vmax values for ADA deamination of cordycepin were 95.18 ± 7.85 μm and 363.90 ± 12.16 μmol/min/unit, respectively. Oleanolic acid and ursolic acid from Ligustri Lucidi Fructus were chosen as ADA inhibitors with half maximal inhibitory concentration values of 21.82 ± 0.39 and 18.41 ± 0.14 μm, respectively. A non-competitive inhibition model was constructed and this assay can be used to screen other potential ADA inhibitors quickly and accurately.

Development of a Simple Assay Method for Adenosine Deaminase via Enzymatic Formation of an Inosine-Tb 3+ Complex. SENSORS 2019; 19:s19122728.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase (ADA), which catalyzes the irreversible deamination of adenosine to inosine, is related to various human diseases such as tuberculous peritonitis and leukemia. Therefore, the method used to detect ADA activity and screen the effectiveness of various inhibitor candidates has important implications for the diagnosis treatment for various human diseases. A simple and rapid assay method for ADA, based on the enzymatic formation of a luminescent lanthanide complex, is proposed in this study. Inosine, an enzymatic product of ADA with stronger sensitization efficiency for Tb3+ than adenosine, produced a strong luminescence by forming an inosine-Tb3+ complex, and it enabled the direct monitoring of ADA activity in real-time. By introducing only Tb3+ to adenosine and ADA in the buffer, the enhancement of luminescence enabled the detection of a low concentration of ADA (detection limit 1.6 U/L). Moreover, this method could accurately determine the inhibition efficiency (IC50) of the known ADA inhibitor, erhythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (EHNA), and the inhibition of ADA could be confirmed by the naked eye. Considering its simplicity, this assay could be extended to the high-throughput screening of various ADA inhibitor candidates.

Abstract
Development of sensitive methods for trace aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) determination is of great significance due to its high toxicity and carcinogenicity. Herein, 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)-capped ternary CdZnTe quantum dots (QDs) have been prepared via a simple hydrothermal route. We found that they exhibited enhanced intensity when benchmarked against their binary counterpart CdTe QDs. On this basis, a target-driven switch-on fluorescence aptasensor for trace AFB1 determination has been developed by employing the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the CdZnTe QDs and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) pair. In the detection diagram, amino group-functionalized aptamers against AFB1 were firstly labelled with the CdZnTe QDs donors coated on silica nanospheres while the AuNPs acceptors were bioconjugated with the thiol group-modified complementary DNA (cDNA) of aptamer. By taking advantage of the DNA hybridization of aptamer and cDNA, the CdZnTe QDs (energy donor) and AuNPs (energy acceptor) were brought into close proximity, thereby leading to the occurrence of FRET during the aptasensor fabrication. When the aptasensor was incubated with AFB1, the specific binding between aptamer and target resulted in the detachment of AuNPs acceptors. This behavior would disturb the FRET process and led to the subsequent fluorescence recovery of CdZnTe QDs. Such designed aptasensor showed an increased fluorescence recovery upon the increasing concentration of AFB1 over a broad range of 50 pg mL-1 - 100 ng mL-1 and succeeded in spiked peanut samples. The proposed aptasensor is separation-free and easy-to-use, which might open up new possibilities in aptasensor fabrication by employing the novel CdZnTe QDs-AuNPs pair.

Abstract
Adenosine deaminase (ADA), which is a key enzyme in the metabolism of purine nucleosides, plays important roles in diverse disorders, such as tuberculosis, diabetes, liver disorders, and cancer. Determination of the activities of ADA and its isoenzymes in body fluids has received considerable attention in the diagnosis and treatment of relative diseases. Ultraviolet spectroscopy with adenosine (AD) as a substrate is a classical approach for screening potential ADA inhibitors by measuring the decrease in substrate (AD) at 265 nm or increase in the product (inosine) at 248 nm. However, AD and inosine share a very close maximum absorption wavelength, and the reaction is uncertain and is frequently interfered by the background color of matrix compounds or plant extracts. Thus, the method usually yields false positive or negative results. In this study, a novel, rapid, sensitive, and accurate ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-Q exactive hybrid quadrupole orbitrap high-resolution accurate mass spectrometric (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS) method was developed for determining and screening ADA inhibitors by directly determining the deamination product of AD, inosine. A proper separation was achieved for inosine and chlormequat (internal standard) within 2 min via isocratic elution (0.1% formic acid:methanol = 85:15, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.3 mL min-1 on a Waters ACQUITY HSS T3 column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 1.8 μm) following a simple precipitation of proteins. The intra- and inter-day precisions of the developed method were below 7.17% and 8.99%, respectively. The method exhibited advantages of small total reaction volume (60 μL), short running time (2 min), high sensitivity (lowest limit of quantification of 0.02 μM for inosine), and low cost (small enzyme consumption of 0.007 unit mL-1 for ADA and substrate of 3.74 μM for AD in individual inhibition), and no matrix effects (101.64%-107.12%). Stability results showed that all analytes were stable under the investigated conditions. The developed method was successfully applied to the detection of the inhibitory activity of ADA from traditional Chinese medicines.

Abstract
Leukemia is a cancer of blood cells and bone marrow, leading to death in many patients mainly in children. Over the last several years, aptamers generated by SELEX (Systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) method, have quickly become a new class of targeting ligands for drug delivery applications and recently have been widely exploited in different biomedical applications, due to several potent properties such as high binding affinity and selectivity, low or no immunogenicity and toxicity, low cost and thermal stability. In this review, we presented in details about aptamers involved in targeting, and treatment of leukemia. Moreover, some analytical approaches such as electrochemical and optical aptasensors were introduced for detection and diagnosis of leukemia. Finally, we discussed about the directions and challenges of aptamer application in this field.

Abstract
Here we report a novel type of bivalent aptasensor based on silver-enhanced fluorescence polarization (FP) for detection of lactoferrin (Lac) in milk powder with high sensitivity and specificity. The novel two split aptamers were obtained from the aptamer reported in our previous SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) selection, and their minimal structural units were optimized on the basis of their affinity and specificity. Also, dual binding sites of split aptamers were verified. The bivalent aptamers were modified to be linked with signal-molecule fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and enhancer silver decahedral nanoparticles (Ag10NPs). The split aptamers could bind to different sites of Lac and assemble into a split-aptamers-target complex, narrowing the distance between Ag10NPs and FITC dye. As a result, Ag10NPs could produce a mass-augmented and metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF) effect. In general, ternary amplification based on Ag10NPs, split aptamers, and the MEF effect all contributed to the significant increase of FP values. It was proved that the sensitivity of this assay was about 3 orders of magnitude over traditional aptamer-based homogeneous assays with a detection limit of 1.25 pM. Furthermore, this design was examined by actual milk powder with rapid and high-throughout detection.

Abstract
To assure water safety and protect human health, precise and simple analytical approaches are highly desired to determine low concentrations of microcystin-leucine-arginine (MC-LR), a toxin, in both water and serum samples. Herein, a simple, rapid and accurate aptamer-based fluorescent sensor was used for selective recognition of MC-LR, based on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) as immobilizers, dapoxyl as a fluorescent dye, DAP-10 as a specific aptamer for dapoxyl and unmodified MC-LR aptamer (Apt) as a sensing ligand. The sensing method was developed to produce a remarkable fluorescence intensity difference in the absence and presence of MC-LR. Moreover, the Apt was used without any modification. In the absence of MC-LR, the dapoxyl could bind to DAP-10, leading to a strong fluorescence intensity. In the presence of MC-LR, DAP-10 bound to the surface of SWNTs, resulting in a very weak fluorescence intensity. Under optimized conditions, the presented fluorescent analytical approach showed high selectivity toward MC-LR with a limit of detection (LOD) of 138 pM. This new method indicated excellent analytical performance for MC-LR detection in tap water and serum samples with LODs of 135 and 168 pM, respectively.

Abstract
The design of a label-free aptamer for separation of recognition sequence from signal reporter is significant to ensure the high-efficiency affinity between aptamer and target. This work develops a label-free triple-helix aptamer (THA) as sensing platform for "signal-on" fluorescent detection of thrombin. THA was composed of aptamer sequence and help DNA 1 (H1), which contained the complementary sequence of hexachloro-fluorescein (HEX) labeled help DNA 2 (H2). The specific recognition event between aptamer and thrombin triggered the dismission of THA to release H1. The released H1 then reacted with the signal probe of H2/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite to form H1-H2 duplex, leading to the fluorescence recovery of H2 due to the detachment of H1-H2 duplex from the surface of GO. With employment of THA as a signal transducer and GO as a "superquencher", this method shows a sensitive response to thrombin with a wide concentration range from 5 to 1200 nM. The limit of detection is 1.8 nM (S/N=3) with excellent selectivity. Considering the universality of THA, the proposed aptasensor would provide a platform for homogeneous fluorescent detection of a wide range of analytes.
