Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and actual analytical techniques are restrictive in detecting it. Thus, there is still a challenge, as well as a need, for the development of quantitative non-invasive tools for the diagnosis of cancers and the follow-up care of patients. We introduce first the overall interest of electronic nose or tongue for such application of microsensors arrays with data processing in complex media, either gas (e.g., Volatile Organic Compounds or VOCs as biomarkers in breath) or liquid (e.g., modified nucleosides as urinary biomarkers). Then this is illustrated with a versatile acoustic wave transducer, functionalized with molecularly-imprinted polymers (MIP) synthesized for adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP) as a model for nucleosides. The device including the thin film coating is described, then static measurements with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrical characterization after each step of the sensitive MIP process (deposit, removal of AMP template, capture of AMP target) demonstrate the thin film functionality. Dynamic measurements with a microfluidic setup and four targets are presented afterwards. They show a sensitivity of 5 Hz·ppm(-1) of the non-optimized microsensor for AMP detection, with a specificity of three times compared to PMPA, and almost nil sensitivity to 3'AMP and CMP, in accordance with previously published results on bulk MIP.

Abstract
Modified nucleosides, regarded as indicators for the whole-body turnover of RNAs, are excreted in abnormal amounts in the urine of patients with malignancies. To test their usefulness as tumour markers and to compare them with the conventional tumour markers, fractionated urine samples were analysed using chromatography. The excretion patterns of nucleosides of 68 cancer patients with malignant and benign tumours and 41 healthy controls have been studied. Significant elevations in the total sum and the concentrations of at least three (or four) of indicator nucleosides cytidine, pseudouridine, 2-pyridone-5-carboxamide-N1-ribofuranoside, N2,N2-dimethylguanine, 1-methylguanosine, 2-methylguanosine and 1-methyladenosine indicate a tumour with a sensitivity of 54% (77%) and a specificity of 86% (98%). Using an artificial neural network analysis, a sensitivity of 97% and a specificity of 85% were achieved in differentiating between tumour and control volunteers. The comparison with carcinoembryonic antigen, cancer antigen 15-3 und tissue polypeptide antigen indicates that urinary nucleosides may be useful tumour markers. This study suggests that the simultaneous determination of modified nucleosides and creatinine in urine samples of patients with cancer leads to an advantage to current methods and is a useful method to detect cancer early and to control the success of therapy.

Abstract
Three queuosine derivatives (Q-derivatives) have been found at position 34 of four mammalian so-called Q-tRNAs: queuosine (Q) in tRNA(Asn) and tRNA(His), mannosyl-queuosine (manQ) in tRNA(Asp), and galactosyl-queuosine (galQ) in tRNA(Tyr). An analytical procedure based on the combined means of purified tRNA isolation from liver cells and ribonucleoside analysis by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography coupled with real-time UV-spectrometry (RPLC-UV) was developed for the quantitative analysis of the three Q-derivatives present in total tRNA from liver tissues and liver cell cultures. Using this analytical procedure, the rates of Q-tRNA modification were studied in total tRNAs from various mammalian hepatic cells. Our results show that the four Q-tRNAs are fully modified in liver tissues from adult mammals, regardless of the mammal species. However, a lack in the Q-modification level was observed in Q-tRNAs from newborn rat liver, as well in Q-tRNAs from normal rat liver cell cultures growing in a low queuine content medium, and from a rat hepatoma cell line. It is noteworthy that in all cases of Q-tRNA hypomodification, our analytical procedure showed that tRNA(Asp) is always the least affected by the hypomodification. The biological significance of this phenomenon is discussed.

Abstract
Nucleosides in human urine have been studied frequently as a possible biomedical marker for cancers, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and the whole-body turnover of RNAs. A capillary electrophoretic method that can quantitatively analyze urinary normal and modified nucleosides in less than 40 min with a good resolution and sufficient sensitivity has been developed. Twelve kinds of normal and modified nucleosides were determined in urine samples from 25 healthy persons and 25 cancer patients of 14 kinds of cancers. Artificial neural networks have been used as a powerful pattern recognition tool to distinguish cancer patients from healthy persons. The recognition rate for the training set reached to 100% and above 85% of the members in the predicting set were correctly classified. In addition, the neural network technique was compared with methods of the principal component analysis and the canonical discriminant analysis. The results demonstrate that the predictive ability of the artificial neural network is stronger than the others in this study.

Abstract
This paper gives a capillary electrophoretic method for the separation of 15 urinary normal and modified nucleosides from cancer patients in less than 40 min. A 500 mm x 50 microns uncoated capillary column (437.5 mm to window) was used. The effects of the voltage and the sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) concentration in the buffer on the separation were studied. With reproducibilities of migration times better than 1.2% (R.S.D.) and determined concentrations better than 5-25%, depending on the concentrations of nucleosides in the urine, the analytical characteristics of the method were good. Using this developed method, the concentrations of 13 normal and modified nucleosides, extracted on a phenyl boronic acid affinity chromatography column, in 25 urines from patients of 14 kinds of cancer were determined. The levels (nmol/mumol creatinine) of modified nucleosides in urines from cancer patients were increased as compared with those in normal urines.

Abstract
Excretion of urinary modified nucleosides is frequently elevated in patients with oncogenic disease. Increases of urinary pseudouridine excretion are now demonstrated in patients with a variety of brain tumors. The potential use of urinary modified base excretion as a cancer marker is discussed and possible sources of the elevated nucleosides are detailed. The specific steps in RNA metabolism that result in increased levels of RNA nucleoside excretion are poorly understood. This knowledge will be necessary to understand the molecular mechanism and the clinical significance of urinary nucleoside excretion in treatment and diagnosis of oncogenic disease.
