Abstract
A family of inorganic-organic hybrid crystalline materials made up of organic ligands and metal cations or clusters is known as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Because of their unique stability, intriguing characteristics, and structural diversity, zirconium-based MOFs (Zr-MOFs) are regarded as one of the most interesting families of MOF materials for real-world applications. Zr-MOFs that have the ligands, metal nodes, and guest molecules enclosed show distinct electrochemical reactions. They can successfully and sensitively identify a wide range of substances, which is important for both environmental preservation and human health. The rational design and synthesis of Zr-MOF electrochemical sensors and biosensors, as well as their applications in the detection of drugs, biomarkers, pesticides, food additives, hydrogen peroxide, and other materials, are the main topics of this comprehensive review. We also touch on the current issues and potential future paths for Zr-MOF electrochemical sensor research.

Adv Healthc Mater 2024; 13:e2303103. [PMID: 38164814 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202303103] [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: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is highly expressed in cancer cells and participates in the immune escape process of tumor cells. However, as one of the most promising biomarkers for cancer immunotherapy monitoring, the key problem ahead of practical usage is how to effectively improve the detection sensitivity of PD-L1. Herein, an electrochemical aptasensor for the evaluation of tumor immunotherapy is developed based on the immune checkpoint protein PD-L1. The fundamental principle of this method involves the utilization of DNA nanotetrahedron (NTH)-based capture probes and aptamer-modified magnetic metal-organic framework nanocomposites as signaling probes. A synergistic enhancement is observed in the electrocatalytic effect between Fe3O4 and UiO-66 porous shells in Fe3O4@UiO-66 nanocomposites. Therefore, the integration of aptamer-modified Fe3O4@UiO-66@Au with NTH-assisted target immobilization as an electrochemical sensing platform can significantly enhance sensitivity and specificity for target detection. This method enables the detection of targets at concentrations as low as 7.76 pg mL-1 over a wide linear range (0.01 to 1000 ng mL-1). The authors have successfully employed this sensor for in situ characterization of PD-L1 on the cell surface and for monitoring changes in PD-L1 expression during drug therapy, providing a cost-effective yet robust alternative to highly expensive and expertise-dependent flow cytometry.

Abstract
Cell surface glycans (CSGs) are essential for cell recognition, adhesion, and invasion, and they also serve as disease biomarkers. Traditional CSG recognition using lectins has limitations such as limited specificity, low stability, high cytotoxicity, and multivalent binding. Aptamers, known for their specific binding capacity to target molecules, are increasingly being employed in the biosensing of CSGs. Aptamers offer the advantage of high flexibility, small size, straightforward modification, and monovalent recognition, enabling their integration into the profiling of CSGs on living cells. In this review, we summarize representative examples of aptamer-based CSG biosensing and identify two strategies for harnessing aptamers in CSG detection: direct recognition based on aptamer-CSG binding and indirect recognition through protein localization. These strategies enable the generation of diverse signals including fluorescence, electrochemical, photoacoustic, and electrochemiluminescence signals for CSG detection. The advantages, challenges, and future perspectives of using aptamers for CSG biosensing are also discussed.

[PMID: 37998130 PMCID: PMC10669513 DOI: 10.3390/bios13110955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
Sensitive detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) is significant and essential because OTA may pose risks to human and animal health. Here, we developed an electrochemical aptasensor for OTA analysis using polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers as a signal amplifier. As a carrier, PAMAM has numerous primary amino groups that can be coupled with thiolated complementary strand DNA (cDNA), allowing it to recognize aptamers bound to the surface of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), thereby improving the sensitivity of the aptasensor. When monitoring the positive samples, OTA was captured by the aptamer fixed on the HRP-conjugated AuNP surface by specific recognition, after which the formed OTA-aptamer conjugates were detached from the electrode surface, ultimately decreasing the electrochemical signal monitored by differential pulse voltammetry. The novel aptasensor achieved a broad linear detection range from 5 to 105 ng L-1 with a low detection limit of 0.31 ng L-1. The proposed aptasensor was successfully applied for OTA analysis in red wine, with recovery rates ranging from 94.15 to 106%. Furthermore, the aptasensor also exhibited good specificity and storage stability. Therefore, the devised aptasensor represents a sensitive, practical and reliable tool for monitoring OTA in agricultural products, which can also be adapted to other mycotoxins.

Abstract
The early detection and prognosis of cancers require sensitive and accurate detection methods; with developments in medicine, electrochemical biosensors have been developed that can meet these clinical needs. However, the composition of biological samples represented by serum is complex; when substances undergo non-specific adsorption to an electrode and cause fouling, the sensitivity and accuracy of the electrochemical sensor are affected. In order to reduce the effects of fouling on electrochemical sensors, a variety of anti-fouling materials and methods have been developed, and enormous progress has been made over the past few decades. Herein, the recent advances in anti-fouling materials and strategies for using electrochemical sensors for tumor markers are reviewed; we focus on new anti-fouling methods that separate the immunorecognition and signal readout platforms.

Abstract
The evolution of biosensors and diagnostic devices has been thriving in its ability to provide reliable tools with simplified operation steps. These evolutions have paved the way for further advances in sensing materials, strategies, and device structures. Polymeric composite materials can be formed into nanostructures and networks of different types, including hydrogels, vesicles, dendrimers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP), etc. Due to their biocompatibility, flexibility, and low prices, they are promising tools for future lab-on-chip devices as both manufacturing materials and immobilization surfaces. Polymers can also allow the construction of scaffold materials and 3D structures that further elevate the sensing capabilities of traditional 2D biosensors. This review discusses the latest developments in nano-scaled materials and synthesis techniques for polymer structures and their integration into sensing applications by highlighting their various structural advantages in producing highly sensitive tools that rival bench-top instruments. The developments in material design open a new door for decentralized medicine and public protection that allows effective onsite and point-of-care diagnostics.

Abstract
A series of macrocyclic compounds, including crown ether, cyclodextrin, cucurbituril and pillararene, bound to various specific organic/inorganic/biological guest molecules and ions through various non-covalent interactions, can not only make a single system multifunctional but also endow the system with intelligence, especially for luminescent materials. Due to their excellent luminescence properties, such as long-lived excited states, sharp linear emission bands and large Stokes shift, lanthanides have shown great advantages in luminescence, and have been more and more applied in the design of advanced functional luminescent materials. Based on reported research, we summarize the progress of lanthanide luminescent materials based on different macrocyclic compounds from ion or molecule recognition to functional nano-supramolecular assembly of the lanthanide-macrocycle supramolecular system including photo-reaction mediated switch of lanthanide luminescent molecules, multicolor luminescence, ion detection and cell imaging of rare-earth up-conversion of macrocyclic supramolecular assembly. Finally, we put forward the prospects of future development of lanthanide luminescent macrocyclic supramolecular materials.

Abstract
Aptamer-functionalized nanoparticles have been widely studied as targeted probes in biomedical applications for targeted therapy and imaging. The rigidity of the nanoparticle could stabilized the spatial structure of the aptamer, ensuring the selectivity and affinity for target recognition in the complex environment. The main aim of this article study was to explore the effect of the spatial structure of aptamer in the interaction between aptamer nanoprobes and receptors. We designed and synthesized aptamer functionalized nanoparticle systems with different derivation lengths, and developed a unique kinetic analysis to quantify affinity interactions. The system used silver decahedral nanoparticles (Ag10NPs), which was then chemically functionalized with thrombin (or IgE) aptamers of different tail lengths to produced different nanoprobes, and employed thrombin (or IgE) as target on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor to evaluate the binding of these nanoprobes. Kinetic analysis of the SPR binding curve was performed to evaluated the affinity between nanoprobes and targets. Under the premise of eliminating multivalent interactions, we found that the distance between aptamer and nanoparticle could affect the affinity between nanoprobe and target. Furthermore, we found that keeping a certain distance between aptamer and nanoparticle could effectively improved the recognition efficiency of the aptamer nanoprobe and target. It shows that the rigidity of nanomaterials could maintain the spatial structure of the aptamer.

Abstract
The accurate analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) holds great promise in early diagnosis and prognosis of cancers. However, the extremely low abundance of CTCs in peripheral blood samples limits the practical utility of the traditional methods for CTCs detection. Thus, novel and powerful strategies have been proposed for sensitive detection of CTCs. In particular, nanomaterials with exceptional physical and chemical properties have been used to fabricate cytosensors for amplifying the signal and enhancing the sensitivity. In this review, we summarize the recent development of nanomaterials-based optical and electrochemical analytical techniques for CTCs detection, including fluorescence, colorimetry, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, chemiluminescence, electrochemistry, electrochemiluminescence, photoelectrochemistry and so on.

Abstract
The emergence of antibiotic resistance has prompted the development of rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) technologies to guide antibiotic prescription. A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor developed can quantitatively measure the binding between the lectin and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on Gram-negative bacteria for bacterial determination and to characterize the antimicrobial activities of β-lactam and non-β-lactam antibiotics to normal and antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The biosensor utilizes ruthenium complex tagged concanavalin A (Ru-Con A) coated on NH2-MIL-53(Al) interface for LPS binding measurements. The decreased ECL signal obtained was directly proportional to increasing Escherichia coli (E. coli) BL21 concentrations. The sensitivity displayed logarithmic dependence in the range of (50-5.0) × 104 cells/mL, with a detection limit of 16 cells/mL. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of antibiotics for normal E. coli BL21 were 0.02-0.2, 2-4, 0.002-0.02, and 0.2-1 mg/L for levofloxacin hydrochloride (LVX), tetracycline (TCY), imipenem (IPM), and cefpirome (CPO), respectively. The increased MIC values (8-16 and 4 mg/L for IMP and CPO, respectively) in New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 expressing E. coli BL21 (NDM-1-E. coli BL21) indicated greater resistance to β-lactams in NDM-1-E. coli BL21 compared with normal E. coli BL21. Therefore, the changed ECL signal because of binding between LPS with the lectin has a relation with the type of antibiotic and bacterial strains, making the ECL biosensor promote clinical practicability and facilitate antibiotic stewardship.

Abstract
A competitive strategy for glycan determination on cell surface with organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) has been developed. The carboxylic multi-wall carbon nanotubes were firstly immobilized on the gate interface to cross-link the specific monose with adipic dihydrazide as the linker, which could then competitively recognize horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled lectin with the target monose on the cell surface. The HRP captured on the gate interface through the affinity of lectin to monose finally catalyzed the reduction of hydrogen peroxide to produce the output current signal for detection of cell surface monose under the optimal gate voltage of 0.9 V. Using mannose and galactose groups as the target models, HRP-labeled concanavalin A and peanut agglutinin were used to competitively recognize these groups on both cell surface and gate interface, respectively. The amounts of mannose and galactose on HeLa cells were measured to be 3.41 × 108 and 2.92 × 108 molecules per cell, respectively. The changes of the mannose and galactose expressions upon external stimulation were also observed with the proposed biosensors, which showed consistent results with flow cytometric analysis, indicating that the OECT-based biosensor is suitable for analysis of different glycan expressions on cell surface.

Abstract
Early diagnostics of leukemia is crucial for successful therapy of this disease. Therefore, development of rapid, sensitive, and easy-to-use methods for detection of this disease is of increased interest. Biosensor technology is challenged for this purpose. This review includes a brief description of the methods used in current clinical diagnostics of leukemia and provides recent achievements in sensor technology based on immuno- and DNA aptamer-based electrochemical and acoustic biosensors. The comparative analysis of immuno- and aptamer-based sensors shows a significant advantage of DNA aptasensors over immunosensors in the detection of cancer cells. The acoustic technique is of comparable sensitivity with those based on electrochemical methods; moreover, it is label-free and provides straightforward evaluation of the signal. Several examples of sensor development are provided and discussed.

Abstract
Programmed biosensors with tunable quantification range and sensitivity would greatly broaden their application in medical diagnosis, food safety and environmental analysis. Herein, we proposed a graphene-nucleic acid biointerface-engineered biosensor, allowing target molecules to be detected with adjustable dynamic ranges and sensitivities. The biosensors were programmed by simply tuning the poly A tail of aptamer probes. The tuning of the poly A tail would allow the interaction between aptamer probes and graphene oxide (GO) to be modulated, in turn programing the competitive binding processes of aptamer probes to target molecules and GO. The biosensors, termed affinity-tunable aptasensors (atAptasensors) could be easily tuned with different dynamic ranges by using aptamer probes with different tail lengths, and the dynamic range could be extended to be over 3 orders by a combined use of multiple aptamer probes. Remarkably, the specificity of aptamer probes could be increased by increasing the interaction between aptamer probes and GO. Reliability of atAptasensor for ATP detection was tested in serum and milk samples, and we also applied atAptasensor for culture-independent analysis of microorganism pollution.

Abstract
Exosomes carrying abundant information have aroused great interest as effective biomarkers in liquid biopsy and are therefore ideal candidates for the early diagnosis of cancer and treatment monitoring. Herein, we developed a sensitive electrochemical biosensor using in situ generation of Fe₄[Fe(CN)6]₃ (Prussian Blue) on the surface of Ti3C2 MXene (two-dimensional transition-metal carbides) as hybrid nanoprobes (PB-MXene) for the detection of exosomes and their surface protein. A CD63 aptamer-modified poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM)-Au NP electrode interface was fabricated that can specifically bind with CD63 protein on the exosomes derived from OVCAR cells. In addition, the CD63-modified Ti3C2 MXene was used as a nanocarrier to accommodate numerous aptamers and was adsorbed on the exosomes. The Ti3C2 MXene can realize the in situ generation and high-efficiency loading of PB and further amplify the electrochemical signal at a low potential, thus avoiding the interference of the electrochemical active species. The dual amplification effect enables highly selective and sensitive electrochemical detection of exosomes. The limit of detection (LOD) was 229 particles μL-1 with a linear range from 5 × 102 particles μL-1 to 5 × 105 particles μL-1. An electrochemical biosensor can detect exosomes secreted by various cancer cells such as HeLa, OVCAR and BT474, and shows a high specificity even in serum samples, thus demonstrating its great potential in the application of clinical diagnostics. This proposed electrochemical biosensor provides a facile and efficient tool for the early diagnosis of cancers.

Abstract
Due to high affinity and specificity of aptamers, they are widely considered for construction of aptasensor to specific recognizing of analytes in biological complex matrix. So, in this work we design a high selective and sensitive aptasensor for leukemia cancer cells (CCRF-CEM) via superior catalytic effect of copper sulfide-graphene (CuS-GR) nanocomposite as label and Au-GR nanocomposite as sensing platform. The CuS-GR nano-composite (label component) is CuS nanoparticles that wrapping on graphene sheets. Its catalytic activity (CuS-GR) increases the current of sensor in parallel with adding of CCRF-CEM and provide sensitive detection of analytes. The detailed of signal amplification and effect on the aptasensor performance completely discussed. This sensor has a linear range of 50-1 × 106 cell mL-1, with a limit of detection of 18 cell mL-1. Also, the developed aptasensor has a significance specificity, high sensitivity and accuracy. It was used for the identification of CCRF-CEM cells in blood samples.

Abstract
This work designed a facile sensing strategy for quantitation of glycans on cell surface using organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs). The sensing strategy was performed by covalently binding target cells on mercaptopropionic acid modified gate electrode for the recognition of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) labeled lectins to specific glycans on cell surface, which led to sensitive channel current signal responding to the captured HRP and thus the expression of cell surface glycans. The quantitation of glycans on cell surface was achieved by using glycan modified microspheres to simulate the cells, on which the amounts of glycans were detected with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The proposed sensing strategy had been used for the detection of mannose and galactose on HeLa cells with Concanavalin A and peanut agglutinin as the specific lectins, which showed 1.37 × 108 mannose and 1.13 × 108 galactose on each cell, respectively. By treating HeLa cells with exoglycosidases, the mannose and galactose expression levels showed the same changes as those detected with flow cytometric analysis, indicating the practical application of the OECT-based biosensor in cell surface glycan expression analysis.

Abstract
The past several decades have seen increasing concern regarding the wide distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in environmental matrices. Primary toxicological data show PAHs' persistent characteristics and possible toxicity effects. Because of this pressing global issue, electroanalytical methods have been introduced. These methods are effective for PAH determination in environmental waters, even outclassing sophisticated analytical techniques such as chromatography, conventional spectrophotometry, fluorescence, and capillary electrophoresis. Herein, the literature published on PAHs is reviewed and discussed with special regard to PAH occurrence. Moreover, the recent developments in electrochemical sensors for PAH determination and the challenges and future outlooks in this field, are also presented.

Abstract
Simple, sensitive and rapid detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is of great importance for early diagnosis and therapy of cancers. Overexpression of sugar units on cell surface is related to the phenotypes of many cancers. Based on the boronate ester interaction, we reported the electrochemical and colorimetric detection of CTCs with high simplicity and sensitivity. Specifically, ferroceneboronic acid (FcBA) can be measured by differential pulse voltammetry and 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) can induce the aggregation and color change of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). CTCs captured by the aptamer-modified magnetic beads (Apt-MBs) can sequestrate FcBA or MPBA molecules by the formation of boronate ester bonds, thus leading to the decrease in the electrochemical signal of FcBA or preventing the MPBA-triggered aggregation of AuNPs. Due to the overexpression of sugar groups on the surface of CTCs, the amplification-free methods exhibited high sensitivity and obviated the use of additional antibody or aptamer for the recognition of captured cells. With MCF-7 cancer cell as the model, 50 cells can be readily determined by the electrochemical and colorimetric methods. The proposed strategy is valuable for probing of cell glycosylation and designing of novel sensing devices for detection of sugar-containing biological macromolecules and cells.

Abstract
Exosomes are extracellular nanovesicles for transferring and delivering membrane and cytosolic molecules between cells. Detection and profiling of exosomal proteins can provide direct information on disease progression, which is important to the early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. Herein, a well-designed electrochemical aptasensor was fabricated for the profiling of cancerous exosomal proteins based on DNA nanotetrahedron (NTH) coupled with Au nanoparticles (NPs) and enzymatic signal amplification. In this assay, the aptamer modified DNA NTHs were used as the recognition and capture unit, Au NPs-DNA conjugates coupled with horseradish peroxidase were used to realize signal amplification. This aptasensor achieves a detection limit down to 1.66 × 104 particles/mL for HepG2 liver cancer exosomes. In addition, the analysis of plasma-derived exosomes in HepG2 liver cancer bearing mice at different cancer stages was also achieved. More importantly, the aptasensor can be used to profile four kinds of exosomal proteins by using the corresponding aptamer. The proposed electrochemical aptasensor may be served as a potential platform for exosome detection and exosomal proteins profiling.

Abstract
This study experimentally analyses the binding characteristics of analytes mixed in liquid samples flowing along a micro-channel to the receptor fixed on the wall of the micro-channel to provide design tools and data for a microfluidic-based biosensor. The binding or detection characteristics are analyzed experimentally by counting the number of analytes bound to the receptor, with sample analyte concentration, sample flow rate, and the position of the receptor along the micro-channel length as the main variables. A mathematical model is also proposed to predict the number of analytes transported and bound to the receptor based on a probability density function for Brownian motion. The coefficient in the mathematical model is obtained by using a dimensionless mathematical model and the experimental results. The coefficient remains valid for all different conditions of the sample analyte concentration, flow rate, and the position of the receptor, which implies the possibility of deriving a generalized model. Based on the mathematical model derived from mathematical and experimental analysis on the detection characteristics of the microfluidic-based biosensor depending on previously mentioned variables and the height of the micro-channel, this study suggests a design for a microfluidic-based biosensor by predicting the binding efficiency according to the channel height. The results show the binding efficiency increases as the flow rate decreases and as the receptor is placed closer to the sample-injecting inlet, but is unaffected by sample concentration.

Abstract
Monitoring circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in human blood can offer useful information for convenient metastasis diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cancers. However, it remains a substantial challenge to detect CTCs because of their particular scarcity in complex peripheral blood. Herein, we describe an in situ-generated multivalent aptamer network-modified electrode interface for efficiently capturing and sensitively detecting CTCs in whole blood by electrochemistry. Such an interface was fabricated via rolling circle amplification extension of the electrode-immobilized primer/circular DNA complexes for the yield of long ssDNA strands with many repeated aptamer segments, which could achieve efficient capture of rare CTCs in a multivalent cooperative manner. The antibody and horseradish peroxidase-functionalized gold nanoparticles further specifically associated with the surface-bound CTCs and generated electrocatalytically amplified current outputs for highly sensitive detection of CTCs with an attractive detection limit of five cells. Also, the multivalent aptamer network interface could successfully distinguish the target cells from other control cells and achieve CTC detection in whole blood, demonstrating its promising potential for monitoring different rare CTCs in human blood.

Background:
Highly sensitive and rapid analysis of food contaminants is of great significance
for food safety control. Aptamer is a new kind of recognition molecules which could be applied
for constructing homogeneous analysis assays, potentially achieving highly sensitive, cheap and rapid
profiling of food contaminants.
Methods:
An overview of the literature concerning the homogeneous analysis of food contaminations
based on aptamers has been reviewed (focused on the most recent literature, 2000-2018).
Results:
Attributed to aptamer’s controllability, designability and feasibility for the adoption of nucleic
acid amplification, rapid, highly sensitive homogeneous assay for various food contaminants could
be constructed. The structure-switching aptamer probe would confer quick, efficient and specific response
to target food contaminants. Besides, the capability of amplification of aptamer sequences or
nucleic acid probes would lead to highly sensitive detection.
Conclusion:
Aptamer-based homogeneous analysis methods have already been applied to detect various
food contaminations ranging from toxins, heavy metal and pesticide to allergen and pathogenic
bacteria. However, it is still a challenge to achieve robust and accurate detection of food contaminants
in complex food samples.

Abstract
During recent decades, nucleic acid aptamers have emerged as powerful biological recognition elements for electrochemical affinity biosensors. These bioreceptors emulate or improve on antibody-based biosensors because of their excellent characteristics as bioreceptors, including limitless selection capacity for a large variety of analytes, easy and cost-effective production, high stability and reproducibility, simple chemical modification, stable and oriented immobilization on electrode surfaces, enhanced target affinity and selectivity, and possibility to design them in target-sensitive 3D folded structures. This review provides an overview of the state of the art of electrochemical aptasensor technology, focusing on novel aptamer-based electroanalytical assay configurations and providing examples to illustrate the different possibilities. Future prospects for this technology are also discussed. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
In this paper, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was successfully immobilized on heated Au disk electrode (HAuDE) by biotin-streptavidin specific interaction through HS-ssDNA-biotin self-assembled on HAuDE for investigation the electrocatalytic activity of HRP. With elevated electrode temperature, the significant temperature effect of the electrocatalytic activity of HRP for H2O2 reduction was demonstrated by using this bio-sensing platform. With an electrode temperature of 40 °C, a detection limit of 1.5 × 10-6 mol L-1 for H2O2 reduction could be obtained, which was more than one magnitude lower than that with an electrode temperature of 0 °C. Because HRP can be widely used as an enzyme label for amplification detection, this sensing platform can be broadly applied to analytical chemistry such as nucleic acid detection, and aptamer-based biosensors.

Abstract
Nanopore technology is promising for the next-generation of nucleic acid-based diagnosis. However, sequence reservation could still be hardly achieved in low-concentration. Herein, we propose a trypsin-activated catalysis reaction for amplified detection, which substantially improves the sensitivity of nanopore technique. The proposed trypsin-amplified nanopore amplified sandwich assay (tNASA) could contribute to a sensitivity approximately 100 000 times higher based on nucleic acid probe design. Remarkably, tNASA is capable of attomolar nucleic acid and single cell detection by using a miniaturized current amplifier without alignment algorithm. Also it allows 10 pathogenic species in serum to be accurately and robustly profiled, thus be utilized for the diagnosis of infectious diseases. tNASA may evolve the construction of nanopore techniques for nucleic acid detection and would facilitate its translation for pocket diagnosis and precision medicine.

Abstract
The sensitive and accurate detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is critical for myocardial infarction diagnosis. In this work, a dual-aptamer-based electrochemical (EC) biosensor was designed for cTnI detection based on the DNA nanotetrahedron (NTH) capture probes and multifunctional hybrid nanoprobes. First, the NTH-based Tro4 aptamer probes were anchored on a screen printed gold electrode (SPGE) surface through the Au-S bond, providing an enhanced spatial dimension and accessibility for capturing cTnI. Then, the hybrid nanoprobes were fabricated by using magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles as nanocarriers to load a large amount of cTnI-specific Tro6 aptamer, natural horseradish peroxidase (HRP), HRP-mimicking Au@Pt nanozymes and G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme. This signaling nanoprobes are capable of specifically recognizing the target cTnI based on the Tro6 aptamer and amplifying the signals to improve the detection sensitivity via enzymatic processes. We found the remarkable enhanced effect of EC signal to be attributed to the co-catalysis effect of hybrid nanozymes, HRP and DNAzyme. The target cTnI was sandwiched between the two types of aptamers (Tro4 and Tro6) on the electrode interface. Finally, this EC aptasensing platform exhibited great analytical performance with a wide dynamic range of 0.01-100 ng mL-1 and a low detection limit of 7.5 pg mL-1 for cTnI. The high selectivity, sensitivity and reliability of EC aptasensor can provide great potential in the clinic disease diagnostics.

Abstract
Circulating tumor cells, a type of viable cancer cell circulating from primary or metastatic tumors in the blood stream, can lead to the parallel development of primary tumors and metastatic lesions. Highly selective and sensitive detection of tumor cells has become a hot research topic and can provide a basis for early diagnosis of cancers and anticancer drug evaluation to develop the best treatment plan. Aptamers are single-stranded oligonucleotides that can bind to target tumor cells in unique three-dimensional structures with high specificity and affinity. Aptamer-based methods or signal amplification methods using aptamers show great potential in improving the selectivity and sensitivity of electrochemical (EC) cytosensors for tumor cell detection. This review covers the remarkable developments in aptamer-based EC cytosensors for the identification of cell type, cell counting and detection of crucial proteins on the cell surface. Various EC techniques have been developed for cancer cell detection, including common voltammetry or impedance, electrochemiluminescence and photoelectrochemistry in a direct approach (aptamer-target cell), sandwich approach (capture probe-target cell-signaling probe) or other approach. The current challenges and promising opportunities in the establishment of EC aptamer cytosensors for tumor cell detection are also discussed.

Abstract
Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is an endocrine disruptor commonly present in plastic products, such as PVC tubes and water bottles. In this work, a surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) based aptasensor was developed and utilized for rapid, easy, sensitive, and specific detection of trace DEHP. A DEHP aptamer was immobilized on magnetic particles. Raman reporter molecule conjugated silver nanoparticles were clustered and coated with silica to provide a stable SERS signal. The SERS silica particle was then functionalized with 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid 1,2-bis(2-ethylhexyl) ester to increase its affinity to the DEHP aptamer. In the presence of a sample with DEHP, the high-affinity SERS silica particle competes with the DEHP molecule to bind with the aptamer on the magnetic particle. By measuring the signal of free SERS silica particles in the supernatant after magnetic separation, the concentration of DEHP in the sample was quantitatively determined. The developed DEHP aptasensor had a detection range from 0.008 to 182 nM and a limit of detection (LOD) of 8 pM. The aptasensor also showed high selectivity when exposed to interferents with analogous structures. The aptasensor was successfully tested for the detection of DEHP spiked in tap water, bottled water, and a carbonate beverage. The developed SERS-based aptasensor provides a rapid, sensitive, and easy-to-use method for the quantitative detection of DEHP in environmental and food analysis. This paper reports a SERS aptasensor developed to detect DEHP at relevant ranges with ultrasensitive performance and good selectivity.![]()

Abstract
Cell-surface N-glycans play important roles in both inter- and intracellular processes, including cell adhesion and development, cell recognition, as well as cancer development and metastasis; detailed structural characterization of these N-glycans is thus paramount. Here we report our comparative N-glycomics study of cell-surface N-glycans of the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) HepG2 cells vs the normal liver LO2 cells. With sequential trypsin digestion of proteins, C18 depletion of peptides without glycosylation, PNGase F digestion of N-glycopeptides, PGC enrichment of N-glycans, CH3I permethylation of the enriched N-glycans, cell-surface N-glycomes of the HepG2 and LO2 cells were analyzed using C18-RPLC-MS/MS (HCD). With spectrum-level FDR no bigger than 1%, 351 and 310 N-glycans were identified for HepG2 and LO2, respectively, with comprehensive structural information (not only monosaccharide composition, but also sequence and linkage) by N-glycan database search engine GlySeeker. The percentage of hybrid N-glycans with tetra-antennary structures was substantially increased in the HepG2 cells. This comprehensive discovery study of differentially expressed cell-surface N-glycans in HepG2 vs LO2 serves as a solid reference for future validation study of glycosylation markers in HCC.
