Abstract
Rapid, low-cost and high-specific diagnosis based on nucleic acid detection is pivotal in both detecting and controlling various infectious diseases, effectively curbing their spread. Moreover, the analysis of circulating DNA in whole blood has emerged as a promising noninvasive strategy for cancer diagnosis and monitoring. Although traditional nucleic acid detection methods are reliable, their time-consuming and intricate processes restrict their application in rapid field assays. Consequently, an urgent emphasis on point-of-care testing (POCT) of nucleic acids has arisen. POCT enables timely and efficient detection of specific sequences, acting as a deterrent against infection sources and potential tumor threats. To address this imperative need, it is essential to consolidate key aspects and chart future directions in POCT biosensors development. This review aims to provide an exhaustive and meticulous analysis of recent advancements in POCT devices for nucleic acid diagnosis. It will comprehensively compare these devices across crucial dimensions, encompassing their integrated structures, the synthesized nanomaterials harnessed, and the sophisticated detection principles employed. By conducting a rigorous evaluation of the current research landscape, this review will not only spotlight achievements but also identify limitations, offering valuable insights into the future trajectory of nucleic acid POCT biosensors. Through this comprehensive analysis, the review aspires to serve as an indispensable guide for fostering the development of more potent biosensors, consequently fostering precise and efficient POCT applications for nucleic acids.

[PMID: 38357703 PMCID: PMC10864596 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1347625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
17β-Estradiol (E2) is a critical sex steroid hormone, which has significant effects on the endocrine systems of both humans and animals. E2 is also believed to play neurotrophic and neuroprotective roles in the brain. Biosensors present a powerful tool to detect E2 because of their small, efficient, and flexible design. Furthermore, Biosensors can quickly and accurately obtain detection results with only a small sampling amount, which greatly meets the detection of the environment, food safety, medicine safety, and human body. This review focuses on previous studies of biosensors for detecting E2 and divides them into non-biometric sensors, enzyme biosensors, antibody biosensors, and aptamer biosensors according to different bioreceptors. The advantages, disadvantages, and design points of various bioreceptors for E2 detection are analyzed and summarized. Additionally, applications of different bioreceptors of E2 detection are presented and highlight the field of environmental monitoring, food and medicine safety, and disease detection in recent years. Finally, the development of E2 detection by biosensor is prospected.

Molecules 2024; 29:535. [PMID: 38276613 PMCID: PMC10819485 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29020535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
The specific and sensitive detection of 17β-estradiol (E2) is critical for diagnosing and treating numerous diseases, and aptamers have emerged as promising recognition probes for developing detection platforms. However, traditional long-sequence E2 aptamers have demonstrated limited clinical performance due to redundant structures that can affect their stability and recognition ability. There is thus an urgent need to further optimize the structure of the aptamer to build an effective detection platform for E2. In this work, we have designed a novel short aptamer that retains the key binding structure of traditional aptamers to E2 while eliminating the redundant structures. The proposed aptamer was evaluated for its binding properties using microscale thermophoresis, a gold nanoparticle-based colorimetric method, and electrochemical assays. Our results demonstrate that the proposed aptamer has excellent specific recognition ability for E2 and a high affinity with a dissociation constant of 92 nM. Moreover, the aptamer shows great potential as a recognition probe for constructing a highly specific and sensitive clinical estradiol detection platform. The aptamer-based electrochemical sensor enabled the detection of E2 with a linear range between 5 pg mL-1 and 10 ng mL-1 (R2 = 0.973), and the detection capability of a definite low concentration level was 5 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). Overall, this novel aptamer holds great promise as a valuable tool for future studies on the role of E2 in various physiological and pathological processes and for developing sensitive and specific diagnostic assays for E2 detection in clinical applications.

Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:2796. [PMID: 37447441 DOI: 10.3390/polym15132796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Continuous in vivo monitoring (CIVM) of pH value is essential for personalized medicine, as many diseases are closely related to acid-base imbalances. However, conventional pH meters are limited in their ability to perform CIVM due to excessive blood consumption, large device volume, frequent calibration, and inadequate real-time monitoring. There is thus an urgent need for a portable method for CIVM of pH value. To address this need, we propose a minimally invasive, continuous monitoring solution in the form of an implantable pH microneedle sensor (MNS) in this study. The MNS is based on the integration of an acupuncture needle (AN) and a Ag/AgCl reference electrode. We fabricate the sensor by electrochemically depositing platinum black and gold nanoparticles onto the AN and further modifying it with polyaniline to increase its sensitivity to hydrogen ions. The pH value is obtained by calculating the open circuit voltage between the modified AN and the reference electrode. The resulting MNS demonstrates excellent selectivity and a high nernstian response to pH (-57.4 mV per pH) over a broad range (pH = 4.0 to pH = 9.0). Both in vitro and in vivo experiments have verified the performance of the sensor, showcasing its potential for biomedical research and clinical practice. The MNS provides an alternative to conventional pH meters, offering a less invasive and more convenient way to perform CIVM of pH value. Moreover, this electrochemical implantable sensor based on AN and silver wires provides a simple and sensitive method for continuous in vivo detection of other biomarkers.

Abstract
Hypoglycemia state damages the organism, and glucose-excited and glucose-inhibited neurons from the ventral medial hypothalamus can regulate this state. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the functional mechanism between blood glucose and electrophysiology of glucose-excited and glucose-inhibited neurons. To better detect and analyze this mechanism, a PtNPs/PB nanomaterials modified 32-channel microelectrode array with low impedance (21.91 ± 6.80 kΩ), slight phase delay (-12.7° ± 2.7°), high double layer capacitance (0.606 μF), and biocompatibility was developed to realize in vivo real-time detection of the electrophysiology activities of glucose-excited and glucose-inhibited neurons. The phase-locking level of some glucose-inhibited neurons elevated during fasting (low blood glucose state) and showed theta rhythms after glucose injection (high blood glucose state). With an independent oscillating ability, glucose-inhibited neurons can provide an essential indicator to prevent severe hypoglycemia. The results reveal a mechanism for glucose-sensitive neurons to respond to blood glucose. Some glucose-inhibited neurons can integrate glucose information input and convert it into theta oscillating or phase lock output. It helps in enhancing the interaction between neurons and glucose. Therefore, the research can provide a basis for further controlling blood glucose by modulating the characteristics of neuronal electrophysiology. This helps reduce the damage of organisms under energy-limiting conditions, such as prolonged manned spaceflight or metabolic disorders.
