Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) as an analytical technology with a perfect combination of electrochemistry and spectroscopy has received considerable attention in bioanalysis due to its high sensitivity and broad dynamic range. Given the selectivity of bio-recognition elements and the high sensitivity of the ECL analysis technique, ECL biosensors are powerful platforms for the sensitive detection of biomarkers, achieving the accurate prognosis and diagnosis of diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial biomarkers involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, whose aberrant expression is often related to serious diseases, especially cancers. ECL biosensors can fulfill the highly sensitive and selective requirements for accurate miRNA detection, prompting this review. The ECL mechanisms are initially introduced and subsequently categorize the ECL biosensors for miRNA detection in terms of the quenching agents. Furthermore, the work highlights the signal amplification strategies for enhancing ECL signal to improve the sensitivity of miRNA detection and finally concludes by looking at the challenges and opportunities in ECL biosensors for miRNA detection.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-based biosensors have received significant attention owing to their unique properties, especially enhanced sensitivity. Recent advancements in biomedical diagnosis have highlighted the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) as sensitive prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers for various diseases. Current diagnostics methods, however, need further improvements with regards to their sensitivity, mainly due to the low concentration levels of miRNAs in the body. The low limit of detection of nanomaterial-based biosensors has turned them into powerful tools for detecting and quantifying these biomarkers. Herein, we assemble an overview of recent developments in the application of different nanomaterials and nanostructures as miRNA electrochemical biosensing platforms, along with their pros and cons. The techniques are categorized based on the nanomaterial used.

Abstract
Cancer diagnosis and treatment have been of broad interest among scientists in the last decades due to the high death rate, widespread occurrence, and recurrence after treatment. The survival rate of cancer patients depends greatly on early detection and appropriate treatments. Therefore developing new technologies applicable to sensitive and specific methods of cancer detection is an inevitable task for cancer researchers. Abnormal miRNA expression is contributed to severe diseases such as cancers and since their expression level and type differ strictly during carcinogenesis and later metastasis and treatments, the improved detection accuracy of these miRNAs would undoubtedly lead to early diagnosis, prognosis, and targeted therapy. Biosensors are accurate and straightforward analytical devices that have had practical applications especially in the last decade. Their domain is still growing through a combination of attractive nanomaterials and amplification methods, leading to innovative biosensing platforms for the efficient detection of miRNAs as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. In this review, we will provide the recent developments in biosensors to detect intestine cancer miRNA biomarkers and also discuss the challenges and outcomings of this field.

Abstract
MicroRNA (miRNA) are constituted of approximately 22 nucleotides and play an important role in the regulation of many physiological functions and diseases. In the last 10 years, an increasing interest has been recorded in studying the expression profile of miRNAs in cancer. Real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), microarrays, and small RNA sequencing represent the gold standard techniques used in the last 30 years as detection methods. The advent of nanotechnology has allowed the fabrication of nanostructured biosensors which are widely exploited in the diagnostic field. Nanostructured biosensors offer many advantages: (i) their small size allows the construction of portable, wearable, and low-cost products; (ii) the large surface-volume ratio enables the loading of a great number of biorecognition elements (e.g., probes, receptors); and (iii) direct contact of the recognition element with the analyte increases the sensitivity and specificity inducing low limits of detection (LOD). In this review, the role of nanostructured biosensors in miRNA detection is explored, focusing on electrochemical and optical sensing. In particular, four types of nanomaterials (metallic nanoparticles, graphene oxide, quantum dots, and nanostructured polymers) are reported for both detection strategies with the aim to show their distinct properties and applications.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are gene regulators involved in the pathogenesis of complex diseases such as cancers, and thus serve as potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets. The prerequisite for designing effective miRNA therapies is accurate discovery of miRNA-disease associations (MDAs), which has attracted substantial research interests during the last 15 years, as reflected by more than 55 000 related entries available on PubMed. Abundant experimental data gathered from the wealth of literature could effectively support the development of computational models for predicting novel associations. In 2017, Chen et al. published the first-ever comprehensive review on MDA prediction, presenting various relevant databases, 20 representative computational models, and suggestions for building more powerful ones. In the current review, as the continuation of the previous study, we revisit miRNA biogenesis, detection techniques and functions; summarize recent experimental findings related to common miRNA-associated diseases; introduce recent updates of miRNA-relevant databases and novel database releases since 2017, present mainstream webservers and new webserver releases since 2017 and finally elaborate on how fusion of diverse data sources has contributed to accurate MDA prediction.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a leading cause of cancer mortality, is decisive for successful treatment of this type of cancer and increasing the patients' survival rate. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a glycoprotein that has been currently employed as a potential serological biomarker for determination of HCC and several other cancers. Achieving highly sensitive and specific detection of this biomarker is an effective strategy to inhibit developing issues caused by the cancer. Though, traditional procedures cannot meet the requirements due to the technical drawbacks. Recently, growing number of aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) attracted important attention as superior diagnostic tools because of their unique properties such as high stability, target versatility and remarkable affinity and selectivity. Nanomaterials, which broadly employed in the structure of these aptasensors, can considerably enhance the detection limit and sensitivity of analytes determination. Therefore, this review selectively investigated the recent progresses in several different optical and electrochemical aptasensors and nano-aptasensors designed for AFP assay.

Abstract
Since the first commercial biosensor device for blood glucose measurement was introduced in the 1970s, many “biosensor types” have been developed, and this research area remains popular worldwide. In parallel with some global biosensor research reports published in the last decade, including a great deal of literature and industry statistics, it is predicted that biosensor design technologies, including handheld or wearable devices, will be preferred and highly valuable in many areas in the near future. Biosensors using nanoparticles still maintain their very important place in science and technology and are the subject of innovative research projects. Among the nanomaterials, carbon-based ones are considered to be one of the most valuable nanoparticles, especially in the field of electrochemical biosensors. In this context, graphene oxide, which has been used in recent years to increase the electrochemical analysis performance in biosensor designs, has been the subject of this review. In fact, graphene is already foreseen not only for biosensors but also as the nanomaterial of the future in many fields and is therefore drawing research attention. In this review, recent and prominent developments in biosensor technologies using graphene oxide (GO)-based nanomaterials in the field of cancer diagnosis are briefly summarized.

Abstract
CD44 is a cell matrix adhesion molecule overexpressed on the cell surfaces of the major cancers. CD44 as a cancer-related biomarker has an essential role in the invasion and metastasis of cancer. The detection and quantification of CD44 can provide essential information useful for clinical cancer diagnosis. In this regard, biosensors with sensitive and specific properties, give prominence to the development of CD44 detection platforms. To date, various aptamer-based sensitive-enhancers together with nanoparticles (NPs) have been combined into the biosensors systems to provide an innovative biosensing method (aptasensors/nano-aptasensors) with substantially improved detection limit. This review article discusses the recent advances in the field of biosensors, nanobiosensors, and aptasensors for the quantitative determination of CD44 and the detection of CD44-expressing cancer cells.

Abstract
The abnormal expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) is associated with various diseases. Developing simple and portable methods for sensitive, rapid and simultaneous detection of multiple miRNAs is critical to achieve accurate and timely diagnosis. Herein, a cotton thread-based multi-channel photothermal biosensor was proposed for simultaneous detection of three breast cancer-related miRNAs including miRNA-10b, miRNA-27a and miRNA-let-7a. Three cotton thread-based channels with one input were designed and the capture probes for detecting different miRNAs were immobilized on the test zones of the corresponding channels. Cu2-xS nanostrings prepared on the basis of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) were taken as the photothermal agents for signal transduction and amplification. The formation of a sandwich structure among the capture probe, target miRNA, and Cu2-xS nanostrings led to the accumulation of the Cu2-xS nanostrings on the test zones and transformed the concentration of miRNA into temperature signal under 808 nm laser irradiation. The temperature changes were quantified by a portable thermal camera and directly reflected the concentration of miRNAs. Under the optimal conditions, the developed multi-channel photothermal biosensor showed excellent specificity and sensitivity with the detection limits of 37 pM, 38 pM and 38 pM for miRNA-10b, miRNA-27a and miRNA-let-7a, respectively. Furthermore, a simultaneous detection of the three miRNAs in cell lysates were achieved and the results were in accordance with that obtained by the quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), indicating its excellent capacity for practical applications. The developed biosensor provided an important tool for analysis of multiple targets and showed great potential in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Heterogeneous immunoassay based on magnetic separation is commonly used in inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS)-based biomedical analysis with elemental labeling. However, the functionalized magnetic beads (MBs) often suffer from non-specific adsorption and random distribution of the functional probes. To overcome these problems, DNA tetrahedron (DT)-functionalized MBs were designed and further conjugated with substrate modified Au NPs (Sub-AuNP). Based on the prepared MB-DT-AuNP probes, an MB-DT based multicomponent nucleic acid enzyme (MNAzyme) system involving Au NPs as the elemental tags was proposed for highly sensitive quantification of miRNA-155 by ICP-MS. Target miRNA would trigger the assembly of MNAzyme, and Sub-AuNP would be cleaved from the MB-DT-AuNP probe, resulting in a cyclic amplification. Single-stranded DNA-functionalized MB (MB-ssDNA)-AuNP probes were prepared as well. Comparatively, the amount of Au NPs grafted onto MB-ssDNA-AuNP probes was higher than that grafted onto MB-DT-AuNP probes. Meanwhile, a higher signal-to-noise ratio was obtained by using MB-DT-AuNP probes over MB-ssDNA-AuNP probes in the MNAzyme system. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the limit of detection for target miRNA obtained by using MB-DT-AuNP probes was 1.15 pmol L-1, improved by 23 times over that obtained by the use of MB-ssDNA-AuNP probes. The proposed MB-DT-MNAzyme-ICP-MS method was applied to the analysis of miRNA-155 in serum samples, and recoveries of 86.7-94.6% were obtained. This method is featured with high sensitivity, good specificity, and simple operation, showing a great application potential in biomedical analysis.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short RNA sequences found in eukaryotic cells and they are involved in several diseases pathogenesis including different types of cancers, metabolic and cardiovascular disorders. Thus, miRNAs circulating in serum, plasma, and other body fluids are employed as biomarkers for diagnostic and prognostic purposes and in assessment of drug response. Thus, various methods have been developed for detection of miRNAs including northern blotting, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), next-generation sequencing, microarray, and isothermal amplification that are recognized as traditional methods. Considering the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of miRNAs-related diseases, development of simple, one-step, sensitive methods is of great interest. Nowadays developing technologies including lateral flow assay, biosensors (optical and electrochemical) and microfluidic systems which are simple fast responding, user-friendly, and are enabled with visible detection have gained considerable attention. This review briefly discusses miRNAs detection' methods, with a particular focus on lateral flow assay, biosensors, and microfluidic systems as novel and practical procedures.

Abstract
Numerous clinical studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNAs) are indicative biomolecules for the early diagnosis of cancer. This work aims to develop a cost-effective and label-free electrochemical biosensor to detect miRNA-21, a biomarker of breast cancer. An electrochemical sensor is fabricated using a nanocomposite, consisting of graphene (GP), polypyrrole (PPY) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), modified onto a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) to improve electron transfer properties and increase the degree of methylene blue (MB) intercalation for signal amplification. The GP/PPY-modified electrode offers good electrochemical reactivity and high dispersibility of AuNPs, resulting in excellent sensor performance. Peak current of the MB redox process, which is proportional to miRNA-21 concentration on the electrode surface, is monitored by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimal conditions, this sensor is operated by monitoring the MB signal response due to the amount of hybridization products between miRNA-21 target molecules and DNA-21 probes immobilized on the electrode. The proposed biosensor reveals a linear range from 1.0 fM to 1.0 nM with a low detection limit of 0.020 fM. In addition, the miRNA-21 biosensor provides good selectivity, high stability, and satisfactory reproducibility, which shows promising potential in clinical research and diagnostic applications.

Abstract
The biology of the late twentieth century was marked by the discovery in 1993 of a new class of small non-coding ribonucleic acids (RNAs) which play major roles in regulating the translation and degradation of messenger RNAs. These small RNAs (18-25 nucleotides), called microRNAs (miRNAs), are implied in several biological processes such as differentiation, metabolic homeostasis, or cellular apoptosis and proliferation. The discovery in 2008 that the presence of miRNAs in body fluids could be correlated with cancer (prostate, breast, colon, lung, etc.) or other diseases (diabetes, heart diseases, etc.) has made them new key players as biomarkers. Therefore, miRNA detection is of considerable significance in both disease diagnosis and in the study of miRNA function. Until these days, more than 1200 miRNAs have been identified. However, traditional methods developed for conventional DNA does not apply satisfactorily for miRNA, in particular due to the low expression level of these miRNA in biofluids, and because they are very short strands. Electrochemical biosensors can provide this sensitivity and also offer the advantages of mass fabrication, low-cost, and potential decentralized analysis, which has wide application for microRNAs sensing, with many promising results already reported. The present review summarizes some newly developed electrochemical miRNA detection methods.

Abstract
MOTIVATION Evidence has shown that microRNAs, one type of small biomolecule, regulate the expression level of genes and play an important role in the development or treatment of diseases. Drugs, as important chemical compounds, can interact with microRNAs and change their functions. The experimental identification of microRNA-drug interactions is time-consuming and expensive. Therefore, it is appealing to develop effective computational approaches for predicting microRNA-drug interactions. RESULTS In this study, a matrix factorization-based method, called the microRNA-drug interaction prediction approach (MDIPA), is proposed for predicting unknown interactions among microRNAs and drugs. Specifically, MDIPA utilizes experimentally validated interactions between drugs and microRNAs, drug similarity and microRNA similarity to predict undiscovered interactions. A path-based microRNA similarity matrix is constructed, while the structural information of drugs is used to establish a drug similarity matrix. To evaluate its performance, our MDIPA is compared with four state-of-the-art prediction methods with an independent dataset and cross-validation. The results of both evaluation methods confirm the superior performance of MDIPA over other methods. Finally, the results of molecular docking in a case study with breast cancer confirm the efficacy of our approach. In conclusion, MDIPA can be effective in predicting potential microRNA-drug interactions.

Abstract
For in-situ disease markers detection, point-of-care (POC) diagnosis has great advantages in speed and cost compared with traditional techniques. The rapid diagnosis, prognosis, and surveillance of diseases can significantly reduce disease-related mortality and trauma. Therefore, increasing attention has been paid to the POC diagnosis devices due to their excellent diagnosis speed and portability. Over the past ten years, paper-based microfluidic aptasensors have emerged as a class of critical POC diagnosis devices and various aptasensors have been proposed to detect various disease markers. However, most aptasensors need further improvement before they can actually enter the market and be widely used. There is thus an urgent need to sort out the key points of preparing the aptasensors and the direction that needs to be invested in. This review summarizes the representative articles in the development of paper-based microfluidic aptasensors. These works can be divided into paper-based optical aptasensors and paper-based electrochemical aptasensors according to their output signals. Significant focus is applied to these works according to the following three parts: (1) The ingenious design of device structure; (2) Application and synthesis of nanomaterial; (3) The detection principle of the proposed aptasensor. This is a detailed and comprehensive review of paper-based microfluidic aptasensors. The accomplishments and shortcomings of the current aptasensors are outlined, the development direction and the future prospective are given. It is hoped that the research in this review can provide a reference for further development of more advanced, more effective paper-based microfluidic aptasensors for POC disease markers diagnosis.

Abstract
Safety and quality of water are significant matters for agriculture, animals and human health. Microcystins, as secondary metabolite of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) and cyclic heptapeptide cyanotoxin, are one of the main marine toxins in continental aquatic ecosystems. More than 100 microcystins have been identified, of which MC-LR is the most important type due to its high toxicity and common detection in the environment. Climate change is an impressive factor with effects on cyanobacterial blooms as source of microcystins. The presence of this cyanotoxin in freshwater, drinking water, water reservoir supplies and food (vegetable, fish and shellfish) has created a common phenomenon in eutrophic freshwater ecosystems worldwide. International public health organizations have categorized microcystins as a kind of neurotoxin and carcinogen. There are several conventional methods for detection of microcystins. The limitations of traditional methods have encouraged the development of innovative methods for detection of microcystins. In recent years, the developed sensor techniques, with advantages, such as accuracy, reproducibility, portability and low cost, have attracted considerable attention. This review compares the well-known of biosensor types for detection of microcystins with a summary of their analytical performance.

Abstract
In this paper, a convenient reverse-phase microemulsion method for the synthesis of SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) by simply introducing the chitosan and fluorescent dye of lucigenin during the formation reaction of SiO2 NPs was proposed. Addition of chitosan can make the SiO2 NPs porous, and increases lucigenin molecule incorporation into chitosan/SiO2 NPs nanopores based on electrostatic interaction and supermolecular forces. Therefore, fluorescence quantum yield of the lucigenin/chitosan/SiO2 composite nanoparticles was increased by introduction of chitosan and compared with lucigenin/SiO2 NPs without chitosan. Because the number of negative charges carried when using single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) was different from that of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), the numbers of lucigenin/chitosan/SiO2 composite nanoparticles with positive charge adsorbed using ssDNA or dsDNA were different. Consequently, fluorescence intensity caused using ssDNA or dsDNA/miRNA was clearly discriminative. With increase in target DNA/miRNA concentration, the difference in fluorescence intensity also increased, resulting in a good linear relationship between fluorescence intensity sensitizing value and target miRNA concentrations. Therefore, a new fluorescence analysis method for direct detection of let-7a in human gastric cancer cell samples without enzyme, label free and no immobilization was established using lucigenin/chitosan/SiO2 composite nanoparticles as a DNA hybrid indicator. The proposed method had high sensitivity and selectivity, low cost and the detection limit was 10 fM (S/N = 3).

Abstract
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), as one of the common tumor markers, is a human glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion and is expressed during human fetal development. Since the birth of human, CEA expression is largely inhibited, with only low levels in the plasma of healthy adults. Generally, CEA will overexpressed in many cancers, including gastric, breast, ovarian, lung, and pancreatic cancers, especially colorectal cancer. As one of the important tumor markers, the detection of CEA has great significance in differential diagnosis, condition monitoring and therapeutic evaluation of diseases. Conventional CEA testing typically uses immunoassay methods. However, immunoassay methods require complex and expensive instruments and professional personnel to operate. Moreover, radioactive element may cause certain damage to the human body, which limits their wide application. In the past few years, biosensors, especially aptamer-based biosensors, have attracted extensive attention due to their high sensitivity, good selectivity, high accuracy, fast response and low cost. This review briefly classifies and describes the advance in optical and electrochemical aptamer biosensors for CEA detection, also explains and compares their advantages and disadvantages.

Electrochemical Nano-biosensors as Novel Approach for the Detection of Lung Cancer-related MicroRNAs. Curr Mol Med 2019; 20:13-35. [DOI: 10.2174/1566524019666191001114941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2019] [Revised: 08/22/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
In both men and women around the world, lung cancer accounts as the
principal cause of cancer-related death after breast cancer. Therefore, early detection of
the disease is a cardinal step in improving prognosis and survival of patients. Today, the
newly-defined microRNAs regulate about 30 to 60 percent of the gene expression.
Changes in microRNA Profiles are linked to numerous health conditions, making them
sophisticated biomarkers for timely, if not early, detection of cancer. Though evaluation
of microRNAs in real samples has proved to be rather challenging, which is largely
attributable to the unique characteristics of these molecules. Short length, sequence
similarity, and low concentration stand among the factors that define microRNAs.
Recently, diagnostic technologies with a focus on wide-scale point of care have recently
garnered attention as great candidates for early diagnosis of cancer. Electrochemical
nano-biosensors have recently garnered much attention as a molecular method,
showing great potential in terms of sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility, and last but
not least, adaptability to point-of-care testing. Application of nanoscale materials in
electrochemical devices as promising as it is, brings multiplexing potential for conducting
simultaneous evaluations on multiple cancer biomarkers. Thanks to their enthralling
properties, these materials can be used to improve the efficiency of cancer diagnostics,
offer more accurate predictions of prognosis, and monitor response to therapy in a more
efficacious way. This article presents a concise overview of recent advances in the
expeditiously evolving area of electrochemical biosensors for microRNA detection in
lung cancer.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) is a highly toxic contaminant in the environment and a serious carcinogen for the human being. The toxicity of arsenic significantly threatens environmental and human health. The effective removing technology for arsenic remains challenging, and one of the reasons is due to the lack of powerful detection method in the complex environmental matrix. There is thus an urgent need to develop novel analytical methods for arsenic, preferably with the potential for the field-testing. To combat arsenic pollution and maintain a healthy environment and eco-system, many analytical methods have been developed for arsenic detection in various samples. Among these strategies, biosensors hold great promise for rapid detection of arsenic, in particular, nanomaterials-based aptamer sensors have attracted significant attention due to their simplicity, high sensitivity and rapidness. In this paper, we reviewed the recent development and applications of aptamer sensors (aptasensors) based-on nanomaterial for arsenic detection, in particular with emphasis on the works using optical and electrochemical technologies. We also discussed the recent novel technology in aptasensors development for arsenic detection, including nucleic acid amplification for signal enhancement and device integration for the portability of arsenic sensors. We are hoping this review could inspire further researches in developing novel nanotechnologies based aptasensors for possible on-site detection of arsenic.

Abstract
Early stage detection of prostate cancer, one of the main causes of mortality among men, is of great importance for better treatment of the patients. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a glycoprotein which has been considered as the most potential serological biomarker for the detection of prostate cancer. Among the various techniques employed for PSA detection, aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) have achieved notable attention because of their unique features and great potentials as diagnostic tools. A variety of strategies such as integration of nanomaterials (NMs) into the structure of aptasensors have also been applied for enhancing the sensitivity of PSA detection. This article reviews recent advances in various optical and electrochemical aptasensors used for PSA detection.

Abstract
Development of a very sensitive biosensor is accompanied with an inevitable shrinkage in the linear detection range. Here, we developed an electrochemical biosensor with a novel methodology to detect microRNA-21 (miR21) at an ultralow level and broad linear detection range. A three-way junction RNA structure was designed harboring (i) a methylene blue (MB)-modified hairpin structure at its one leg to function as the sensing moiety and (ii) the other two legs to be further hybridized with barcode gold nanoparticles (MB/barG) as the signal amplifiers. Addition of target miR21 resulted in opening the hairpin moiety and subsequent hybridization with DNA-modified gold nanoflower/platinum electrode (GNF@Pt) to form the MB-3 sensor. Inspired by the relay-race run, to extend the dynamic detection range and increase the sensitivity of the biosensor, MB/barG was added to form the second detection modality (MBG-3). The combined sensor required very low sample volume (4 μL) and could identify 135 aM or 324 molecules of miR21 with the ability to operate within a wide linear range from 1 μM down to 500 aM. The fabricated GNF@Pt showed a remarkable conductivity compared with the gold nanoparticle-modified electrode. Addition of MB/barG boosted the electrochemical signal of the MB by almost 230 times. Moreover, a new protocol was introduced by the authors to increase the efficiency of microRNA extraction from the total serum. Possessing a sound selectivity and specificity towards single base-pair mutations, the developed biosensor could profile cancer development stages of two patient serums.

Abstract
As an important biomarker for early disease diagnosis, microRNA-21 (miRNA-21) has attracted considerable attention owing to its accurate detection. Herein we combine the one-step biorecognition reaction at a vertically aligned nanostructure-based biosensor with the T7 exonuclease (Exo)-assisted target recycling to develop a novel electrochemical bioassay method for miRNA-21 detection. The vertically aligned nanointerface is constructed through the covalent attachment of terminally carboxylated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) at an aryldiazonium salt-modified electrode, which enables the noncovalent adsorption of a ferrocene-labeled single-stranded signal DNA to obtain the biosensor. Upon its incubation with a target miRNA-21 solution, DNA/RNA hybridized duplexes will form and release from the electrode surface, leading to the corresponding electrochemical signal decrease of the biosensor. Moreover, this biorecognition reaction can also trigger the T7 Exo-assisted target recycling to achieve great signal amplification. Together with the highly efficient biorecognition and excellent electron transfer promotion at the vertically aligned SWCNTs, this biosensor exhibits a wide linear range varying from 0.01 to 100 pM and a low detection limit down to 3.5 fM. Considering its obvious performance superiority and convenient manipulations, this vertically aligned SWCNT-based electrochemical biosensing method has extensive potential for practical applications.

Abstract
With revolutionary advances in next-generation sequencing, the human transcriptome has been comprehensively interrogated. These discoveries have highlighted the emerging functional and regulatory roles of a large fraction of RNAs suggesting the potential they might hold as stable and minimally invasive disease biomarkers. Although a plethora of molecular-biology- and biosensor-based RNA-detection strategies have been developed, clinical application of most of these is yet to be realized. Multifunctional nanomaterials coupled with sensitive and robust electrochemical readouts may prove useful in these applications. Here, we summarize the major contributions of engineered nanomaterials-based electrochemical biosensing strategies for the analysis of miRNAs. With special emphasis on nanostructure-based detection, this review also chronicles the needs and challenges of miRNA detection and provides a future perspective on the presented strategies.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) present several features that make them more difficult to analyze than DNA and RNA. For this reason, efforts have been made in recent years to develop innovative platforms for the efficient detection of microRNAs. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the sensing strategies able to deal with drawbacks and pitfalls related to microRNA detection. With a critical perspective of the field, we identify the main challenges to be overcome in microRNA sensing, and describe the areas where several innovative approaches are likely to come for managing those issues that put limits on improvement to the performances of the current methods. Then, in the following sections, we critically discuss the contribution of the most promising approaches based on the peculiar properties of nanomaterials or nanostructures and other hybrid strategies which are envisaged to support the adoption of these new methods useful for the detection of miRNA as biomarkers of practical clinical utility.

Abstract
An isothermal, enzyme free, ultra-specific and ultra-sensitive protocol for electrochemical detection of miRNAs is proposed based on the toehold-mediated strand displacement reaction (SDR) and non-enzymatic catalytic hairpin reaction (CHA) recycling. The SDR was first triggered only in the presence of target miRNA and this process also affects other miRNA interferences having similar target sequences, thus guaranteeing a high discrimination factor and could be used in rare content miRNA detection with various amounts of interferences having similar target sequences. The output protector strand then triggered enzyme free CHA amplification and generates plenty of hairpin self-assembly products. This process in turn influences SDR equilibrium to move to the right and generates large amounts of protector output to ensure analysis sensitivity. Compared with traditional CHA, our proposed method greatly improved the signal to noise ratio and shows excellent performance in rare miRNA detection with miRNA analogue interference. Under the optimal experimental conditions and using square wave voltammetry, the established biosensor could detect target miRNA-21 down to 30 fM (S/N = 3) with a dynamic range from 100 fM to 2 nM, and discriminate rare target miRNA-21 from mismatched miRNA with high selectivity. This method holds great promise in miRNA detection from human cancer cell lines and would be a versatile and powerful tool for clinical molecular diagnostics.

Abstract
MicroRNA (miRNA) analysis has vital significance as a potential biomarker in clinical diagnosis and cancer research. In this study, a simple and practical technique was proposed for the detection of microRNAs from cell lysates based on fishhook probe-mediated rolling circle amplification (RCA) and fluorescence imaging with a smartphone. Compared with reported methods related to miRNA detection, this method mainly focused on simplicity, low cost and portability. Fishhook probes were designed and immobilized on the surface of streptavidin-coated magnetic beads for effectively recognizing and capturing target miRNAs, thus achieving simple and selective separation from the sample matrix. Moreover, the captured miRNAs initiated and transferred RCA reaction into solution, thus making the heterogeneous separation and homogeneous amplification reactions compatible. Excess circular probes as well as other nucleic acids were removed by two-step magnetic separation, minimizing nonspecific amplification and background signal. Using magnetic separation, high specificity was obtained even for one base mismatch strand. Moreover, the detection of miR-21 in cell lysates was performed without total RNA extraction. The fishhook probe-based rolling circle amplification (FP-RCA) assay integrated isolation and detection of miRNAs into a compact process, which was simple and effective without the need for bulky and expensive equipment such as centrifuge, thermal cycler and fluorescent microscope except for a blue light source device and a smartphone camera. Our study may provide a low-cost and reliable platform for miRNA detection and related research.

Abstract
Measurement of small molecules in extremely dilute concentrations of analyte play an important role in different issues ranging from food industry to biological, pharmaceutical and therapeutical applications. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors can be a suitable choice for detection of small molecules based on interactions with biomolecules. However, sensitivity of the system for detection of these molecules is very low. Improving sensitivity has been a challenge for years. Therefore, different methods have been used to enhance SPR signals. The SPR signal enhancement using numerous nanomaterials has provided exciting results. Among various nanomaterials, metal nanoparticles (for instance gold, silver and magnetic nanoparticles), quantum dots, nanorads, and carbon-based nanostructures have got much attention due to ease in fabrication, appropriate size and shape. In addition to the advantages provided by using nanomaterials, signal enhancement provided by the appropriate use of phase information of the reflected light could be also important to improve SPR sensitivity. Phase-sensitive SPR sensors are able to detect infinitesimal changes in external properties of target while traditional type of SPR cannot demonstrate these changes. This article provides an overview on signal enhancment in SPR using nanomaterials and properties of light. We also discuss on recent progresses of the field, describing basic concepts concerning nanostructures as well as phase-sensitive sensors as platform for enhancement of signal in SPR.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a key regulator of vascular formation and a predominant protein biomarker in cancer angiogenesis. Owing to its crucial roles in the cancer metastasis, VEGF detection and quantification is of great importance in clinical diagnostics. Today, there exist a wide variety of detection strategies for identifying many types of disease biomarkers, especially for VEGF. As artificial single-stranded DNA or RNA oligonucleotides with catalytic and receptor properties, aptamers have drawn lots of attention to be applied in biosensing platforms due to their target-induced conformational changes as well as high stability and target versatility. So far, various sensitivity-enhancement techniques in combination with a broad range of smart nanomaterials have integrated into the design of novel aptasensors to improve detection limit and sensitivity of analyte detection. This review article provides a brief classification and description of the research progresses of aptamer-based biosensors and nanobiosensors for the detection and quantitative determination of VEGF based on optical and electrochemical platforms.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) constitute novel biomarkers for various diseases. Accurate and quantitative analysis of miRNA expression is critical for biomedical research and clinical theranostics. In this study, a method was developed for sensitive and specific detection of miRNAs via dual signal amplification based on duplex specific nuclease (DSN) and hybridization chain reaction (HCR). A reporter probe (RP), comprising recognition sequence (3’ end modified with biotin) for a target miRNA of miR-21 and capture sequence (5’ end modified with Fam) for HCR product, was designed and synthesized. HCR was initiated by partial sequence of initiator probe (IP), the other part of which can hybridize with capture sequence of RP, and was assembled by hairpin probes modified with biotin (H1-bio and H2-bio). A miR-21 triggered cyclical DSN cleavage of RP, which was immobilized to a streptavidin (SA) coated magnetic bead (MB). The released Fam labeled capture sequence then hybridized with the HCR product to generate a detectable dsDNA. This polymer was then dropped on lateral flow strip and positive result was observed. The proposed method allowed quantitative sequence-specific detection of miR-21 (with a detection limit of 2.1 fM, S/N = 3) in a dynamic range from 100 fM to 100 pM, with an excellent ability to discriminate differences in miRNAs. The method showed acceptable testing recoveries for the determination of miRNAs in serum.
