Abstract
Early detection of cancer markers is critical for cancer diagnosis and cancer therapy since these markers may indicate cancer risk, incidence, and disease prognosis. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a type of non-specific and broad-spectrum cancer biomarker commonly utilized for early cancer diagnosis. Moreover, it serves as an essential tool to assess the efficacy of cancer treatment and monitor tumor recurrence as well as metastasis, thus garnering significant attention for precise and sensitive CEA detection. In recent years, photoelectrochemical (PEC) techniques have emerged as prominent methods in CEA detection due to the advantages of PEC, such as simple equipment requirements, cost-effectiveness, high sensitivity, low interference from background signals, and easy of instrument miniaturization. Different signal amplification methods have been reported in PEC sensors for CEA analysis. Based on these, this article reviews PEC sensors based on various signal amplification strategies for detection of CEA during the last five years. The advantages and drawbacks of these sensors were discussed, as well as future challenges.

Abstract
At present, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second deadliest type of cancer, partly because a high percentage of cases are diagnosed at advanced stages when tumors have already metastasized. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel diagnostic systems that allow early detection as well as new therapeutic systems that are more specific than those currently available. In this context, nanotechnology plays a very important role in the development of targeted platforms. In recent decades, many types of nanomaterials with advantageous properties have been used for nano-oncology applications and have been loaded with different types of targeted agents, capable of recognizing tumor cells or biomarkers. Indeed, among the different types of targeted agents, the most widely used are monoclonal antibodies, as the administration of many of them is already approved by the main drug regulatory agencies for the treatment of several types of cancer, including CRC. In this way, this review comprehensively discusses the main drawbacks of the conventional screening technologies and treatment for CRC, and it presents recent advances in the application of antibody-loaded nanoplatforms for CRC detection, therapy or theranostics applications.

Highly Sensitive Immunosensing of Carcinoembryonic Antigen Based on Gold Nanoparticles Dotted PB@PANI Core-Shell Nanocubes as a Signal Probe. JOURNAL OF ANALYTICAL METHODS IN CHEMISTRY 2023; 2023:7009624. [PMID: 37063701 PMCID: PMC10104734 DOI: 10.1155/2023/7009624] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2022] [Revised: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
Herein, a method was developed for the sensitive monitoring of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) by gold nanoparticles dotted prussian blue@polyaniline core-shell nanocubes (Au NPs/PB@PANI). First, a facile low-temperature method was used to prepare the uniform PB@PANI core-shell nanocubes with the assistance of PVP, where PB acted as the electron transfer mediator to provide electrochemical signals, and the PANI with excellent conductivity and desirable chemical stability not only played the role of a protective layer to prevent etching of PB in basic media but also effectively improved electron transfer. Importantly, to further enhance the electrical conductivity and biocompatibility of PB@PANI and to further enhance the electrochemical signal and capture a large amount of Ab2, Au NPs were doped on the surface of PB@PANI to form Au NPs/PB@PANI nanocomposites. Subsequently, benefiting from the advantages of core-shell structure nanoprobes and gold-platinum bimetallic nanoflower (AuPt NF), a sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor for CEA detection was constructed, which provided a wide linear detection range from 1.0 pg·mL-1 to 100.0 ng·mL-1 and a low detection limit of 0.35 pg·mL-1 via DPV (at 3σ). Moreover, it displayed a satisfactory result when the core-shell structure nanoprobe-based immunosensor was applied to determine CEA in real human serum samples.

[PMID: 36150338 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2022.123938] [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: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 09/07/2022] [Accepted: 09/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
In this work, a chemiluminescence (CL) aptasensor for sensitive carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection was constructed based on the CL system of luminol-H2O2-NaOH. Magnetic carbon nanotubes (MCNTs), as the base material, was modified with CEA-aptamer and DNA1, and was combined with the novel flower-shaped Ag@ZIF-67 of modified with DNA2 through the principle of base complementary pairing. CEA combined with aptamer when it existed in the solution. At the same time, MCNTs was adsorbed at the bottom of the container under the influence of external magnetic field, and Ag@ZIF-67 enhanced the CL signal. The CL aptasensor demonstrated high selectivity and sensitivity for CEA in human serum sample with (1-4): a detection limit of 4.53 × 10-3 ng/mL in case the detection range was 0.05-500 ng/mL. Furthermore, the proposed method had been shown great potential in cancer diagnosis.
