[PMID: 39128313 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
In the field of nucleic acid amplification assays, developing enzyme-free, easy-to-use, and highly sensitive amplification approaches remains a challenge. In this work, we synthesized a heterogeneous Cu2O nanocatalyst (hnCu2O) with different particle sizes and shapes, which was used for developing enzyme- and label-free nucleic acid amplification methods based on the nucleic acid-templated azide-alkyne cycloaddition (AAC) reaction catalyzed by hnCu2O. The hnCu2O exhibited size- and shape-dependent catalytic activity, with smaller sizes and spherical-like shapes exhibiting superior activity. Spherical-like hnCu2O (61 ± 8 nm) not only achieved a ligation yield of up to 84.2 ± 3.9 % in 3 min but also exhibited faster kinetics in the nucleic acid-templated hnCu2O-catalyzed AAC reaction, with a high reaction rate of 0.65 min-1 and a half-life of 1.07 ± 0.09 min. Based on this result, we developed nucleic acid-templated click ligation linear amplification reaction (NA-CLLAR) and nucleic acid-templated click ligation exponential amplification reaction (NA-CLEAR) approach. By combining the recognition (complementary to the target sequence) and signal output (split G-quadruplex sequence) elements into a DNA probe, the NA-CLLAR and NA-CLEAR fluorescence assays achieved highly specific detection of target nucleic acids, with a detection limit of 2.8 aM based on G-quadruplex-enhanced fluorescence. This work is a valuable reference and will inspire researchers to design enzyme-free nucleic acid signal amplification strategies by developing different types of Cu(I) catalysts with improved catalytic activity.

Abstract
The application of graphene-based nanocomposites for therapeutic and diagnostic reasons has advanced considerably in recent years due to advancements in the synthesis and design of graphene-based nanocomposites, giving rise to a new field of nano-cancer diagnosis and treatment. Nano-graphene is being utilized more often in the field of cancer therapy, where it is employed in conjunction with diagnostics and treatment to address the complex clinical obstacles and problems associated with this life-threatening illness. When compared to other nanomaterials, graphene derivatives stand out due to their remarkable structural, mechanical, electrical, optical, and thermal capabilities. The high specific surface area of these materials makes them useful as carriers in controlled release systems that respond to external stimuli; these compounds include drugs and biomolecules like nucleic acid sequences (DNA and RNA). Furthermore, the presence of distinctive sheet-like nanostructures and the capacity for photothermal conversion have rendered graphene-based nanocomposites highly favorable for optical therapeutic applications, including photothermal treatment (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and theranostics. This review highlights the current state and benefits of using graphene-based nanocomposites in cancer diagnosis and therapy and discusses the obstacles and prospects of their future development. Then we focus on graphene-based nanocomposites applications in cancer treatment, including smart drug delivery systems, PTT, and PDT. Lastly, the biocompatibility of graphene-based nanocomposites is also discussed to provide a unique overview of the topic.

Abstract
Nucleic acids play a pivotal role in the diagnosis of diseases. However, rapid, cost-efficient, and ultrasensitive identification of nucleic acid targets still represents a significant challenge. Herein, we describe an enzyme-free DNA amplification method capable of achieving accurate and ultrasensitive nucleic acid detection via DNA-templated click ligation chain reaction (DT-CLCR) catalyzed by a heterogeneous nanocatalyst made of Cu2O (hnCu2O). This hnCu2O-DT-CLCR method is built on two cross-amplifying hnCu2O-catalyzed DNA-templated azide-alkyne cycloaddition-driven DNA ligation reactions that boast a fast reaction rate and a high DNA ligation yield in minutes, enabling rapid exponential amplification of specific DNA targets. This newly developed hnCu2O-DT-CLCR-enabled DNA amplification strategy is further integrated with two signal reporting mechanisms to achieve low-cost and easy-to-use biosensors: an electrochemical sensor through the conjugation of a methylene blue redox reporter to a DNA probe used in hnCu2O-DT-CLCR and a colorimetric sensor through the incorporation of the split-to-intact G-quadruplex DNAzyme encoded into hnCu2O-DT-CLCR. Both sensors are able to achieve specific detection of the intended DNA target with a limit of detection at aM ranges, even when challenged in complex biological matrices. The combined hnCu2O-DT-CLCR and sensing strategies offer attractive universal platforms for enzyme-free and yet efficient detection of specific nucleic acid targets.

Abstract
Graphene is an emerging nanomaterial increasingly being used in electrochemical biosensing applications owing to its high surface area, excellent conductivity, ease of functionalization, and superior electrocatalytic properties compared to other carbon-based electrodes and nanomaterials, enabling faster electron transfer kinetics and higher sensitivity. Graphene electrochemical biosensors may have the potential to enable the rapid, sensitive, and low-cost detection of cancer biomarkers. This paper reviews early-stage research and proof-of-concept studies on the development of graphene electrochemical biosensors for potential future cancer diagnostic applications. Various graphene synthesis methods are outlined along with common functionalization approaches using polymers, biomolecules, nanomaterials, and synthetic chemistry to facilitate the immobilization of recognition elements and improve performance. Major sensor configurations including graphene field-effect transistors, graphene modified electrodes and nanocomposites, and 3D graphene networks are highlighted along with their principles of operation, advantages, and biosensing capabilities. Strategies for the immobilization of biorecognition elements like antibodies, aptamers, peptides, and DNA/RNA probes onto graphene platforms to impart target specificity are summarized. The use of nanomaterial labels, hybrid nanocomposites with graphene, and chemical modification for signal enhancement are also discussed. Examples are provided to illustrate applications for the sensitive electrochemical detection of a broad range of cancer biomarkers including proteins, circulating tumor cells, DNA mutations, non-coding RNAs like miRNA, metabolites, and glycoproteins. Current challenges and future opportunities are elucidated to guide ongoing efforts towards transitioning graphene biosensors from promising research lab tools into mainstream clinical practice. Continued research addressing issues with reproducibility, stability, selectivity, integration, clinical validation, and regulatory approval could enable wider adoption. Overall, graphene electrochemical biosensors present powerful and versatile platforms for cancer diagnosis at the point of care.

Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:113. [PMID: 36869936 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-023-05642-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 03/05/2023]
Abstract
An improved electrochemical sensor has been developed for sensitive detection of the p53 gene based on exponential amplification reaction (EXPAR) and CRISPR/Cas12a. Restriction endonuclease BstNI is introduced to specifically identify and cleave the p53 gene, generating primers to trigger the EXPAR cascade amplification. A large number of amplified products are then obtained to enable the lateral cleavage activity of CRISPR/Cas12a. For electrochemical detection, the amplified product activates Cas12a to digest the designed block probe, which allows the signal probe to be captured by the reduced graphene oxide-modified electrode (GCE/RGO), resulting in an enhanced electrochemical signal. Notably, the signal probe is labeled with large amounts of methylene blue (MB). Compared with traditional endpoint decoration, the special signal probe effectively amplifies the electrochemical signals by a factor of about 15. Experimental results show that the electrochemical sensor exhibits wide ranges from 500 aM to 10 pM and 10 pM to 1 nM, as well as a relatively low limit detection of 0.39 fM, which is about an order of magnitude lower than that of fluorescence detection. Moreover, the proposed sensor shows reliable application capability in real human serum, indicating that this work has great prospects for the construction of a CRISPR-based ultra-sensitive detection platform.

Abstract
Cancer is a genetic disease induced by mutations in DNA, in particular point mutations in important driver genes that lead to protein malfunctioning and ultimately to tumorigenesis. Screening for the most common DNA point mutations, especially in such genes as TP53, BRCA1 and BRCA2, EGFR, KRAS, or BRAF, is crucial to determine predisposition risk for cancer or to predict response to therapy. In this review, we briefly depict how these genes are involved in cancer, followed by a description of the most common techniques routinely applied for their analysis, including high-throughput next-generation sequencing technology and less expensive low-throughput options, such as real-time PCR, restriction fragment length polymorphism, or high resolution melting analysis. We then introduce benefits of electrochemical biosensors as interesting alternatives to the standard methods in terms of cost, speed, and simplicity. We describe most common strategies involved in electrochemical biosensing of point mutations, relying mostly on PCR or isothermal amplification techniques, and critically discuss major challenges and obstacles that, until now, prevented their more widespread application in clinical settings.

Abstract
Point mutations are common in the human DNA genome and are closely related to higher susceptibility to cancer diseases. Therefore, suitable methods for their sensing are of general interest. In this work, we report on a magnetic electrochemical bioassay using DNA probes tethered to streptavidin magnetic beads (strep-MBs) to detect T > G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) within the inteleukin-6 (IL6) gene in human genomic DNA. In the presence of the target DNA fragment and tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), the electrochemical signal related to the oxidation of TMB is observed, which is much higher than the one obtained in the absence of the target. The key parameters affecting the analytical signal, such as the concentration of the biotinylated probe, its incubation time with strep-MBs, DNA hybridization time, and TMB loading, were optimized using the electrochemical signal intensity and signal-to-blank (S/B) ratio as selection criteria. Using spiked buffer solutions, the bioassay can detect the mutated allele in a wide range of concentrations (over six decades) with a low detection limit (7.3 fM). Furthermore, the bioassay displays a high specificity with high concentrations of the major allele (one mismatched), and two mismatched and non-complementary DNA. More importantly, the bioassay can detect the variation in scarcely diluted human DNA, collected from 23 donors, and can reliably distinguish between heterozygous (TG genotype) and homozygous (GG genotype) in respect to the control subjects (TT genotype), where the differences are statistically highly significant (p-value < 0.001). Thus, the bioassay is useful for cohort studies targeting one or more mutations in human DNA.

Abstract
Breast cancer is categorized as the most widespread cancer type among women globally. On-time diagnosis can decrease the mortality rate by making the right decision in the therapy procedure. These features lead to a reduction in medication time and socioeconomic burden. The current review article provides a comprehensive assessment for breast cancer diagnosis using nanomaterials and related technologies. Growing use of the nano/biotechnology domain in terms of electrochemical nanobiosensor designing was discussed in detail. In this regard, recent advances in nanomaterial applied for amplified biosensing methodologies were assessed for breast cancer diagnosis by focusing on the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches. We also monitored designing methods, advantages, and the necessity of suitable (nano) materials from a statistical standpoint. The main objective of this review is to classify the applicable biosensors based on breast cancer biomarkers.

Abstract
Electrochemical methodology has probably been the most used sensing platform in the past few years as they provide superior advantages. In particular, screen-printed electrode (SPE)-based sensing applications stand out as they provide extraordinary miniaturized but robust and user-friendly detection system. In this context, we are focusing on the modification of SPE with functional nucleic acid probes and nanostructures to improve the electrochemical detection performance in versatile sensing applications, particularly in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. Aptamers are immobilized on the electrode surface to detect non-nucleic acid targets and complementary probes to recognize and capture nucleic acid targets. In a step further, SPE-based biosensors with the modification of self-assembled DNA nanostructures are emphasized as they offer great potential for the interface engineering of the electrode surface and promote the excellent performance of various interface reactions. By equipping with a portable potentiostat and a smartphone monitoring device, the realization of this SPE-based miniaturized diagnostic system for the further requirement of fast and POC detection is revealed. Finally, more novel and excellent works are previewed and future perspectives in this field are mentioned.

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
The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) highlights the importance of rapid and sensitive diagnostics of viral infection that enables the efficient tracing of cases and the implementation of public health measures for disease containment. The immediate actions from both academia and industry have led to the development of many COVID-19 diagnostic systems that have secured fast-track regulatory approvals and have been serving our healthcare frontlines since the early stage of the pandemic. On diagnostic technologies, many of these clinically validated systems have significantly benefited from the recent advances in micro- and nanotechnologies in terms of platform design, analytical method, and system integration and miniaturization. The continued development of new diagnostic platforms integrating micro- and nanocomponents will address some of the shortcomings we have witnessed in the existing COVID-19 diagnostic systems. This Perspective reviews the previous and ongoing research efforts on developing integrated micro- and nanosystems for nucleic acid-based virus detection, and highlights promising technologies that could provide better solutions for the diagnosis of COVID-19 and other viral infectious diseases. With the summary and outlook of this rapidly evolving research field, we hope to inspire more research and development activities to better prepare our society for future public health crises.

Abstract
Developing a sensitive, low-cost and general sensing platform for the analysis of a DNA biomarker and its mutation is important for early cancer screening. In our work, the tumor suppressor gene-p53 DNA was chosen as the model DNA biomarker due to its vital role in preventing oncogene cancer-inhibiting activity through mediating cellular proliferation and apoptosis. Compared with tumor biopsy, the quantification of p53 DNA and its mutation in biofluids (such as urine) is more convenient due to its simple operation and non-invasiveness. Herein, a label-free amplified fluorescence assay has been developed for p53 DNA in urine samples through the KFP polymerase-driven double strand displacement reactions and a magnetic nanoprobe. First, the ssDNA probe (RP) was designed with antisense sequences for p53 DNA and the Nb.BbvCI endonuclease recognition site. In the presence of p53 DNA, the formed dsDNA between RP and p53 DNA served as an engaging primer to initiate the first strand displacement reaction (SDA) under the action of KFP DNA polymerase and Nb.BbvCI, generating abundant short ssDNA (primer). Subsequently, the resulting primers will initiate the downstream SDA through the primer-hairpin DNA (HPa) binding, opening up, and extension of HPb and HPc under the action of KFP DNA polymerase. In the process of this final DNA polymerization reaction, the primer hybridized on HPa is released and goes on to initiate another round, forming plenty of duplex Y-shaped DNA. With the integration of SYBR Green I (SG I) into these duplex DNA, the amplified label-free fluorescence detection platform for p53 DNA can be achieved. Moreover, a biotin modified nanoprobe (bio-CP) was used to capture the superfluous HP. By performing the separation function, the binding of superfluous HP and SG could be avoided and a low background can be acquired. Benefiting from the abundant SG intercalation sites of Y-shaped DNA and low background signals, this method showed excellent sensitivity with a detection limit of 0.012 nM, and the p53 DNA in urine samples was evaluated, offering a powerful tool for biomedical research and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Latest technological advancement has tremendously expanded the knowledge on the composition of body fluids and the cancer-associated changes, which has fueled the replacement of invasive biopsies with liquid biopsies by using appropriate specific receptors. DNA emerges as a versatile analytical reagent in electrochemical devices for hybridization-based or aptamer-based recognition of all kind of biomarkers. In this mini review, we briefly introduce the current affordable targets (tumor-derived nucleic acids, circulating tumor cells and exosomes) in body fluids, and then we provide an overview of selected electrochemical methods already applied in clinical samples by dividing them into three large categories according to sample type: red (blood), yellow (urine), and white (saliva and sweat) diagnostics. This review focuses on the hurdles of the complex matrices rather than a comprehensive and detailed revision of the format schemes of DNA-based electrochemical sensing. This diverse perspective compiles some challenges that are often forgotten and critically underlines real sample analysis or clinical validation assays. Finally, the needs and trends to reach the market are briefly outlined.

An integrated electrochemical biosensor based on target-triggered strand displacement amplification and "four-way" DNA junction towards ultrasensitive detection of PIK3CA gene mutation.

[PMID: 31929087 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2019.111954] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2019] [Revised: 11/16/2019] [Accepted: 12/04/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
A novel electrochemical biosensor was constructed for specific and ultrasensitive detection of PIK3CAH1047R gene mutation based on NsbI restriction enzyme-mediated strand displacement amplification (NsbI-SDA) and four-way DNA junction for the first time. In this biosensor, the NsbI restriction enzyme combined with strand displacement amplification (SDA) was able to specifically distinguish PIK3CAH1047R gene mutation and increase the number of DNA copies to improve electrochemical response. In the presence of target mutation gene, DNA fragments produced by the cleavage event of NsbI restriction enzyme could trigger the SDA reaction to generate massive linker chains. When the linker chains were captured on the electrode, the four-way DNA junction was then attached at the end of linker chain. By integrating electroactive molecules of methylene blue (MB) into four-way DNA junction, this sandwich-like electrochemical biosensor was able to determine the specific distinction of target mutation gene with a low detection limit of 0.001%. Finally, this strategy could be used to analyze mutation gene spiked into human serum samples, indicating the potential application in genetic analysis and clinical disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Background and Purpose: The humoral immune response in cancer patients can be used for early detection of the disease. Autoantibodies raised against tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) are promising clinical biomarkers for reliable cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy monitoring. In this study, an electrochemical disposable multiplexed immunosensing platform able to integrate difficult- and easy-to-express colorectal cancer (CRC) TAAs is reported for the sensitive determination of eight CRC-specific autoantibodies. Methods: The electrochemical immunosensing approach involves the use of magnetic microcarriers (MBs) as solid supports modified with covalently immobilized HaloTag fusion proteins for the selective capture of specific autoantibodies. After magnetic capture of the modified MBs onto screen-printed carbon working electrodes, the amperometric responses measured using the hydroquinone (HQ)/H2O2 system were related to the levels of autoantibodies in plasma. Results: The biosensing platform was applied to the analysis of autoantibodies against 8 TAAs described for the first time in this work in plasma samples from healthy asymptomatic individuals (n=3), and patients with high-risk of developing CRC (n=3), and from patients already diagnosed with colorectal (n=3), lung (n=2) or breast (n=2) cancer. The developed bioplatform demonstrated an improved discrimination between CRC patients and controls (asymptomatic healthy individuals and breast and lung cancer patients) compared to an ELISA-like luminescence test. Conclusions: The proposed methodology uses a just-in-time produced protein in a simpler protocol, with low sample volume, and involves cost-effective instrumentation, which could be used in a high-throughput manner for reliable population screening to facilitate the detection of early CRC patients at affordable cost.

Abstract
Effective cancer treatment requires early detection and monitoring the development progress in a simple and affordable manner. Point-of care (POC) screening can provide a portable and inexpensive tool for the end-users to conveniently operate test and screen their health conditions without the necessity of special skills. Electrochemical methods hold great potential for clinical analysis of variety of chemicals and substances as well as cancer biomarkers due to their low cost, high sensitivity, multiplex detection ability, and miniaturization aptitude. Advances in two-dimensional (2D) material-based electrochemical biosensors/sensors are accelerating the performance of conventional devices toward more practical approaches. Here, recent trends in the development of 2D material-based electrochemical biosensors/sensors, as the next generation of POC cancer screening tools, are summarized. Three cancer biomarker categories, including proteins, nucleic acids, and some small molecules, will be considered. Various 2D materials will be introduced and their biomedical applications and electrochemical properties will be given. The role of 2D materials in improving the performance of electrochemical sensing mechanisms as well as the pros and cons of current sensors as the prospective devices for POC screening will be emphasized. Finally, the future scopes of implementing 2D materials in electrochemical POC cancer diagnostics for the clinical translation will be discussed.

Abstract
Nowadays, analyzing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), a very small part of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) carried by blood, is considered to be an interesting alternative to conventional single-site tumor tissue biopsies, both to assess tumor burden and provide a more comprehensive snapshot of the time-related and spatial heterogeneity of cancer genetic/epigenetic scenery. The determination of ctDNA and/or mapping its characteristic features, including tumor-specific mutations, chromosomal aberrations, microsatellite alterations, and epigenetic changes, are minimally invasive, powerful and credible biomarkers for early diagnosis, follow-up, prediction of therapy response/resistance, relapse monitoring, and tracking the rise of new mutant subclones, leading to improved cancer outcomes This review provides an outline of advances published in the last five years in electrochemical biosensing of ctDNA and surrogate markers. It emphasizes those strategies that have been successfully applied to real clinical samples. It highlights the unique opportunities they offer to shift the focus of cancer patient management methods from actual decision making, based on clinic-pathological features, to biomarker-driven treatment strategies, based on genotypes and customized targeted therapies. Also highlighted are the unmet hurdles and future key points to guide these devices in the development of liquid biopsy cornerstone tools in routine clinical practice for the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy response monitoring in cancer patients.

Abstract
A label-free electrochemical biosensor based on the triplex DNA-templated Ag/Pt bimetallic nanoclusters (triplex-Ag/PtNCs) and locked nucleic acid (LNA) modified X-shaped DNA probe was developed for the detection of single-nucleotide variant (SNV) related to β-thalassemia. Firstly, using triplex DNA as template, a site-specific and homogeneous Ag/PtNCs was prepared, which can effectively catalyze the 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine-H2O2 system and thus be employed as a signal reporter in the field of electrochemical biosensor. Secondly, the LNA modified X-shaped probes were assembled on gold electrode surface, which can only be dissociated in the presence of target, leading to the hybridization with triplex-Ag/PtNCs and significant increase of current signal. In this way, the detection limit for SNV of β-thalassemia was 0.8 fM with variant allele frequency (VAF) as low as 0.0001%.

Diethylene glycol-containing chiral γPNA (miniPEG-γPNA) is considered to be the best PNA derivative and one of the best candidates for gene detection, because it can hybridize DNA with greater affinity and sequence selectivity than DNA and ordinary aminoethylglycyl PNA (aegPNA). Herein, miniPEG-γPNA probes are synthesized by 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) in a mild condition, and a new biochip fabrication method "Film-Spotting" is invented, by which γPNA arrays with regular pattern, uniform luminance, and very low fluorescence background are obtained easily and cheaply. The miniPEG-γPNA array can effectively distinguish the full matched and mismatched targets in SSarc buffer, serum and urine, and the detection limit of complementary DNA is less than 5.97 nM. A miniPEG-γPNA array for BRCA1 gene mutation (3099delT) detection is also fabricated with a very good detection performance. This work provides an effective avenue for the diagnosis of breast cancer biomarker and expands the application of miniPEG-γPNA in the field of biochip.

Abstract
Constant progress in the identification of biomarkers at different molecular levels in samples of different natures, and the need to conduct routine analyses, even in limited-resource settings involving simple and short protocols, are examples of the growing current clinical demands not satisfied by conventional available techniques. In this context, the unique features offered by electrochemical biosensors, including affordability, real-time and reagentless monitoring, simple handling and portability, and versatility, make them especially interesting for adaptation to the increasingly challenging requirements of current clinical and point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. This has allowed the continuous development of strategies with improved performance in the clinical field that were unthinkable just a few years ago. After a brief introduction to the types and characteristics of clinically relevant biomarkers/samples, requirements for their analysis, and currently available methodologies, this review article provides a critical discussion of the most important developments and relevant applications involving electrochemical biosensors reported in the last five years in response to the demands of current diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic actions related to high prevalence and high mortality diseases and disorders. Special attention is paid to the rational design of surface chemistry and the use/modification of state-of-the-art nanomaterials to construct electrochemical bioscaffolds with antifouling properties that can be applied to the single or multiplex determination of biomarkers of accepted or emerging clinical relevance in particularly complex clinical samples, such as undiluted liquid biopsies, whole cells, and paraffin-embedded tissues, which have scarcely been explored using conventional techniques or electrochemical biosensing. Key points guiding future development, challenges to be addressed to further push the limits of electrochemical biosensors towards new challenging applications, and their introduction to the market are also discussed.

Abstract
A sensitive and disposable amperometric immunosensor for Saccharomyces cerevisiae was constructed by using carbon screen-printed electrodes modified with propionic acid-functionalized graphene oxide as transduction element. The affinity-based biosensing interface was assembled by covalent immobilization of a specific polyclonal antibody on the carboxylate-enriched electrode surface via a water-soluble carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide coupling approach. A concanavalin A-peroxidase conjugate was further used as signaling element. The immunosensor allowed the amperometric detection of the yeast in buffer solution and white wine samples in the range of 10-107 CFU/mL. This electroanalytical device also exhibited low detection limit and high selectivity, reproducibility, and storage stability. The immunosensor was successfully validated in spiked white wine samples.

Abstract
The detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is of great clinical significance to the diagnosis of various genetic diseases and cancers. In this work, the development of an ultrasensitive ratiometric electrochemical sensor for screening SNP with a significantly enhanced discrimination factor is reported. The ferrocene (Fc) and methylene blue (MB) dual-tagged triple helix complex (THC) probes are self-assembled on the gold electrode to construct the sensing interface. The addition of the mutant p53 gene causes the disassembly of the THC probes with the release of the Fc-tagged sequence and the folding of the MB-labeled sequence into a hairpin structure, causing the change in the current response ratio of MB to Fc for monitoring the mutant p53 gene. Such ratio is dramatically enhanced by the toehold-mediated displacement reaction-assisted target recycling amplification with the presence of an assistance hairpin sequence. With the significant signal amplification and the advantageous specificity of the THC probes, sub-femtomolar detection limit and a highly enhanced SNP discrimination factor for the mutant p53 gene can be obtained. Besides, the proof-of-demonstration application of the sensor for diluted real samples has been verified, offering such sensor new opportunities for monitoring various genetic related diseases.

Abstract
The development of high-efficient technologies for cancer biomarkers detection has attracted tremendous research effort for its great clinic significance. In this work, we designed a new type of flexible and robust nanohybrid microelectrode by modifying carbon fiber with dual nanoenzyme, i.e., AuPd alloy nanoparticles (AuPd-ANPs) decorated graphene quantum dots (GQDs) assembly, and explored its practical application in electrochemical sensing system for sensitive detection of cancer biomarker hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in human breast cancer cells and tissue. For the preparation of dual nanoenzyme modified microelectrode, ionic liquid was used as the electrolyte for the effective electrodeposition of GQDs on carbon fiber substrate to form a close-packed assembly under a very negative potential, then the highly dense AuPd-ANPs were uniformly decorated on GQDs assembly by electrodeposition. In virtue of the structural merits and synergistic contribution of dual nanoenzyme in enhancing the electrocatalytic activity to H2O2, the resultant nanohybrid microelectrode exhibited good sensing performances for electrochemical detection of H2O2, including a high sensitivity of 371 μA cm-2 mM-1, a wide linear range from 1.0 μM to 18.44 mM, a low detection limit of 500 nM (a signal-to-noise ratio of 3:1), as well as good selectivity and biocompatibility, which could be used for real-time tracking H2O2 released from different types of human breast cells and in situ sensitive detection of H2O2 in clinical breast cancer tissue.

Abstract
Management and prognosis of diseases requires the measurement in non- or minimally invasively collected samples of specific circulating biomarkers, consisting of any measurable or observable factors in patients that indicate normal or disease-related biological processes or responses to therapy. Therefore, on-site, fast and accurate determination of these low abundance circulating biomarkers in scarcely treated body fluids is of great interest for health monitoring and biological applications. In this field, electrochemical DNA sensors (or genosensors) have demonstrated to be interesting alternatives to more complex conventional strategies. Currently, electrochemical genosensors are considered very promising analytical tools for this purpose due to their fast response, low cost, high sensitivity, compatibility with microfabrication technology and simple operation mode which makes them compatible with point-of-care (POC) testing. In this review, the relevance and current challenges of the determination of circulating biomarkers related to relevant diseases (cancer, bacterial and viral infections and neurodegenerative diseases) are briefly discussed. An overview of the electrochemical nucleic acid-based strategies developed in the last five years for this purpose is given to show to both familiar and non-expert readers the great potential of these methodologies for circulating biomarker determination. After highlighting the main features of the reported electrochemical genosensing strategies through the critical discussion of selected examples, a conclusions section points out the still existing challenges and future directions in this field.

Abstract
P53 mutation was detected through the application of a biosensing approach based on the decrease in the fluorescence of oligonucleotide-templated silver nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs). To this end specific DNA scaffolds of two various nucleotide fragments were used. One of the scaffolds was enriched with two cytosine sequence fragment (C12). This led to DNA-AgNCs with a fluorescence intensity through chemical reduction, while the other scaffold acted as the probe fragment (5- GTAGATGGCCATGGCGCGGACGCGGGTG-3). This latter scaffold selectively bound to the specific p53 site. Thus, resulting AgNCs demonstrated decreased fluorescence upon binding to single-base mismatching targets, and this behavior was found to be linearly proportional to the concentration of mutated p53 from 5 to 350 nM and the approach was found to be able to detect concentrations as low as 1.3 nM.

Abstract
Highly sensitive and selective quantitation of a variety of proteins over a wide concentration range is highly desirable for increased accuracy of biomarker detection or for multidisease diagnostics. In the present contribution, using human immunoglobulin G (HIgG) as the model target protein, an electrochemical ultrasensitive immunosensing platform was developed based on the oligonucleotide self-assembled monolayer-mediated (OSAM) sensing interface. For this immunosensor, the "signal-on" signaling mechanism and enzymatic signal amplification effect were integrated into one sensing architecture. Moreover, the thiolated flexible single-stranded DNAs immobilized onto gold electrode surface not only performs the wobbling motion to facilitate the electron transfer between the electrode surface and biosensing layer but also fundamentally prohibiting the direct interaction of proteins with gold substrate. Thus, the electrochemical signal could be efficiently enhanced and the unspecific adsorption or cross-reaction might be eliminated. As a result, utilizing the newly-proposed immunosensor, the HIgG can be detected down to 0.5 ng/mL, and the high detection specificity is offered. The successful design of OSAM and the highly desirable detection capability of new immunosensor are expected to provide a perspective for fabricating new robust immunosensing platform and for promising potential of oligonucleotide probe in biological research and biomedical diagnosis.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has gained much attention over the last decades, as it offers unique opportunities for the advancement of the next generation of sensing tools. Point-of-care (POC) devices for the selective detection of biomolecules using engineered nanoparticles have become a main research thrust in the diagnostic field. This review presents an overview on how the POC-associated nanotechnology, currently applied for the identification of nucleic acids, proteins and antibodies, might be further exploited for the detection of infectious pathogens: although still premature, future integrations of nanoparticles with biological markers that target specific microorganisms will enable timely therapeutic intervention against life-threatening infectious diseases.

Abstract
Whether graphene and graphene oxide (GO) would affect the activities of bacteria has been under debate. Nevertheless, how graphene derivatives with biocompatible coatings interact with microorganisms and the underlying mechanisms are important issues for nanobiotechnology, and remain to be further explored. Herein, three new types of nano-GOs functionalized with polyethylene glycol (nGO-PEGs) were synthesized by varying the PEGylation degree, and their effects on Escherichia coli (E. coli) were carefully investigated. Interestingly, nGO-PEG (1:1), the one with relatively lower PEGylation degree, could significantly stimulate bacterial growth, whereas as-made GO and the other two nGO-PEGs showed no effect. Further analysis revealed that nGO-PEG (1:1) treatment significantly accelerated FtsZ-ring assembly, shortening Phase 1 in the bacterial cell cycle. Both DNA synthesis and extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) secretion were also dramatically increased. This unique phenomenon suggests promising potentials in microbial engineering as well as in clinical detection of bacterial pathogens. As a proof-of-concept, nGO-PEG (1:1) treatment could remarkably enhance (up to 6-fold) recombinant protein production in engineered bacteria cells. To our best knowledge, this is the first demonstration of functionalized GO as a novel, positive regulator in microbial engineering. Moreover, our work highlights the critical role of surface chemistry in modulating the interactions between nanomaterials and microorganisms.
