Abstract
Cancer antigen 15-3 (CA 15-3) is a crucial marker used in the diagnosis and monitoring of breast cancer (BC). The demand for early and precise cancer detection has grown, making the creation of biosensors that are highly sensitive and specific essential. This review paper provides a thorough examination of the progress made in optical and electrochemical biosensors for detecting the cancer biomarker CA 15-3. We focus on explaining their fundamental principles, sensitivity, specificity, and potential for point-of-care applications. The performance attributes of these biosensors are assessed by considering their limits of detection, reaction times, and operational stability, while also making comparisons to conventional methods of CA 15-3 detection. In addition, we explore the incorporation of nanomaterials and innovative transducer components to improve the performance of biosensors. This paper conducts a thorough examination of recent studies to identify the existing obstacles. It also suggests potential areas for future research in this fast progressing field.The paper provides insights into their advancement and utilization to enhance patient outcomes. Both categories of biosensors provide significant promise for the detection of CA 15-3 and offer distinct advantages compared to conventional analytical approaches.

Abstract
The development of an ultrasensitive and precise measurement of a breast cancer biomarker (cancer antigen 15-3; CA15-3) in complex human serum is essential for the early diagnosis of cancer in groups of healthy populations and the treatment of patients. However, currently available testing technologies suffer from insufficient sensitivity toward CA15-3, which severely limits early large-scale screening of breast cancer patients. We report a versatile electrochemical immunoassay method based on atomically cobalt-dispersed nitrogen-doped carbon (Co-NC)-modified disposable screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and its metabolite, ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP), as the electrochemical labeling and redox signaling unit for sensitive detection of low-abundance CA15-3. During electrochemical detection by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), it was found that the Co-NC-SPCE electrode did not have a current signal response to the AAP substrate; however, it had an extremely favorable response current to ascorbic acid (AA). Based on the above principle, the target CA15-3-triggered immunoassay enriched ALP-catalyzed AAP produces a large amount of AA, resulting in a significant change in the system current signal, thereby realizing the highly sensitive detection of CA15-3. Under the optimal AAP substrate concentration and ALP catalysis time, the Co-NC-SPCE-based electrochemical immunoassay demonstrated a good DPV current for CA15-3 in the assay interval of 1.0 mU/mL to 10,000 mU/mL, with a calculated limit of detection of 0.38 mU/mL. Since Co-NC-SPCE has an excellent DPV current response to AA and employs split-type scheme, the constructed electrochemical immunoassay has the merits of high preciseness and anti-interference, and its clinical diagnostic results are comparable to those of commercial kits.

Abstract
Breast cancer poses the significance of early diagnosis and treatment. Here, we developed an innovative photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor characterized by high-level dual photocurrent signals and exceptional sensitivity. The PEC sensor, denoted as MIL&Ag2S, was constructed by incorporating Ag2S into a metal-organic framework of MIL-101(Cr). This composite not only enhanced electron-hole separation and conductivity but also yielded robust and stable dual photocurrent signals. Through the implementation of signal switching, we achieved the combined detection of cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) with outstanding stability, reproducibility, and specificity. The results revealed a linear range for CEA detection spanning 0.01-32 ng/mL, with a remarkably low detection limit of 0.0023 ng/mL. Similarly, for CA15-3 detection, the linear range extended from 0.1 to 320 U/mL, with a low detection limit of 0.014 U/mL. The proposed strategy introduces new avenues for the development of highly efficient, cost-effective, and user-friendly PEC sensors. Furthermore, it holds promising prospects for early clinical diagnosis, contributing to potential breakthroughs in medical detection and ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
The idea of combining electrochemical (EC) and plasmonic biosensor methods was introduced almost thirty years ago and the potential of electrochemical-plasmonic (EC-P) biosensors has been highlighted ever since. Despite that, the use of EC-P biosensors in analytics has been rather limited so far and the search for unique applications of the EC-P method continues. In this paper, we review the advances in the field of EC-P biosensors and discuss the features and benefits they can provide. In addition, we identify the main challenges for the development of EC-P biosensors and the limitations that prevent EC-P biosensors from more widespread use. Finally, we review applications of EC-P biosensors for the investigation and quantification of biomolecules, and for the study of biomolecular and cellular processes.

Abstract
A sensitive electrochemical strategy for carcinoembryonic antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) detection is reported using CTAB-Co-MOFs@AuPt NPs as signal probes. The electrochemical strategy was designed as follows: First, the graphene aerogel@gold nanoparticles (GA@Au NPs) nanocomposites were employed to modify the sensing surface for promoting electron transfer rate and primary antibody (Ab1) immobilization due to GA possesses a large specific surface area, eminent conductivity, and a 3D network structure. Cobalt metal-organic frameworks (CTAB-Co-MOFs) synthesized were then used as a carrier for AuPt NPs and secondary antibody (Ab2) immobilization (notes: labelled-Ab2). With sandwich immunoreaction, the labelled-Ab2 was captured on the surface of the GA@Au NPs nanocomposites. Finally, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was employed to register the electrochemical signal of the immunosensor at the potential of - 0.85 V (vs SCE) in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) containing 2.5 mM H2O2. It was verified that the electrochemical reduction signal from Co3+ to Co2+ was recorded. The AuPt NPs could catalyze the reaction of H2O2 oxidizing Co2+ to Co3+, resulting in the amplification of the electrochemical signal. Under the selected conditions, the immunosensor can detect CA15-3 in the range 10 µU/mL to 250 U/mL with a low detection limit of 1.1 µU/mL. In the designed strategy, the CTAB-Co-MOFs were not only employed as carriers for AuPt NPs, but also acted as signal probes. The CTAB-Co-MOFs were investigated including SEM, TEM, XPS, and XRD. The application ability of the immunosensor was evaluated using serum sample, demonstrating the immunosensor can be applied to clinic serum analysis.

Abstract
Surface Plasmon Resonance based-sensors are promising tools for precision diagnostics as they can provide tests useful for early and, whenever possible, non-invasive disease detection and monitoring. The design of novel, robust and effective interfaces enabling the sensing of a variety of molecular interactions in a highly selective and sensitive manner is a necessary step to obtain both accurate and reliable detection by SPR. This review covers the recent research efforts in this area, specifically emphasizing well-designed interfaces and applications in real-life samples. In particular, after a short introduction which identifies some of the critical challenges, the emerging strategies for the integration of the linker, the metal substrate and the recognition element on the sensing interface will be explored and discussed in three sections, as well as the opportunities for building SPR biosensors, easy to use, and with excellent sensitivities. Finally, a summary of some of the more promising and latest diagnostic applications will be provided, presenting a new window into the near-future perspectives.

Abstract
The development of a simple and fast cancer detection method is crucial since early diagnosis is a key factor in increasing survival rates for lung cancer patients. Among several diagnosis methods, the electrochemical sensor is the most promising one due to its outstanding performance, portability, real-time analysis, robustness, amenability, and cost-effectiveness. Conducting polymer (CP) composites have been frequently used to fabricate a robust sensor device, owing to their excellent physical and electrochemical properties as well as biocompatibility with nontoxic effects on the biological system. This review brings up a brief overview of the importance of electrochemical biosensors for the early detection of lung cancer, with a detailed discussion on the design and development of CP composite materials for biosensor applications. The review covers the electrochemical sensing of numerous lung cancer markers employing composite electrodes based on the conducting polyterthiophene, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), polyaniline, polypyrrole, molecularly imprinted polymers, and others. In addition, a hybrid of the electrochemical biosensors and other techniques was highlighted. The outlook was also briefly discussed for the development of CP composite-based electrochemical biosensors for POC diagnostic devices.

Abstract
In this work, a novel, label-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was constructed for the ultrasensitive detection of carbohydrate antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) by the combined use of NiFe2O4@C@CeO2/Au hexahedral microbox and luminol luminophore. The synthesis of the co-reaction accelerator (NiFe2O4@C@CeO2/Au) was related to the calcination of FeNi-based metal-organic framework (MOF), as well as the ingrowth of CeO2 nanoparticles and modification of Au nanoparticles. To be specific, the electrical conductivity will be boosted due to the Au nanoparticles, the synergetic effect generated between CeO2 and calcination FeNi-MOF could offer better activity of oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, the NiFe2O4@C@CeO2/Au hexahedral microbox as a co-reaction accelerator has excellent OER activity and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus increasing the ECL intensity of luminol in a neutral medium without other co-reactants such as H2O2. Because of these benefits, the constructed ECL immunosensor was applied to detect CA15-3 as an example under optimum conditions, the designed ECL immunosensor exhibited high-level selectivity and sensitivity for CA15-3 biomarker within a linear response range of 0.01-100 U mL-1 and an ultralow detection limit of 0.545 mU mL-1 (S/N = 3), demonstrating its potentially valuable application in the area of clinical analysis.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the major public health issues in the world. It has become the second leading cause of death, with approximately 75% of cancer deaths transpiring in low- or middle-income countries. It causes a heavy global economic cost estimated at more than a trillion dollars per year. The most common cancers are breast, colon, rectum, prostate, and lung cancers. Many of these cancers can be treated effectively and cured if detected at the primary stage. Nowadays, around 50% of cancers are detected at late stages, leading to serious health complications and death. Early diagnosis of cancer diseases substantially increases the efficient treatment and high chances of survival. Biosensors are one of the potential screening methodologies useful in the early screening of cancer biomarkers. This review summarizes the recent findings about novel cancer biomarkers and their advantages over traditional biomarkers, and novel biosensing and diagnostic methods for them; thus, this review may be helpful in the early recognition and monitoring of treatment response of various human cancers.

Abstract
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is regarded as a promising broad spectrum tumor biomarker for clinical diagnosis, progression, and prognosis. Surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi) was considered as one of the powerful tools for immunoassay with advantages of label-free, real-time detection with high-throughput. Herein, wavy gold-silver alloy nanoplates functionalized with anti-CEA antibodies providing high protein loading capacity and high mass are used as signal enhancers for CEA detection through SPRi sandwich assay. The present method exhibits a dynamic range for CEA determination from 0.1 to 312.5 ng mL-1 and a detection limit of 0.55 ng mL-1, well below normal physiological levels. This biosensing approach demonstrates the advantages of wavy gold-silver alloy nanoplates compared to conventional gold nanoparticles as a signal amplifier to enhance the SPRi signal, which is expected to become a new prospect for detection of cancer markers in biomedical research and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Tumor protein quantification with high specificity, sensitivity, and efficiency is of great significance to enable early diagnosis and effective treatment. The existing methods for protein analysis usually suffer from high cost, time-consuming operation, and insufficient sensitivity, making them not clinically friendly. In this work, a label-free homogeneous sensor based on the nano-impact electroanalytic (NIE) technique was proposed for the detection of tumor protein marker alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). The detection principle is based on the recovery of current of single PtNP catalyzed hydrazine oxidation due to the release of the pre-adsorbed passivating aptamers on PtNPs from the competition of the stronger binding between the specific interaction of the AFP aptamer and AFP. The intrinsic one-by-one analytical ability of NIE allows highly sensitive detection, which can be further improved by reducing the reaction/incubation volume. Meanwhile, the current sensor avoids a laborious labeling procedure as well as the separation and washing steps due to the in situ characteristic of NIE. Accordingly, the current sensor enables efficient, highly sensitive, and specific AFP analysis. More importantly, the reliable detection of AFP in diluted real sera from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients is successfully achieved, indicating that the impact electrochemistry-based sensing platform has great potential to be applied in point-of-care devices for HCC liquid biopsy.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to develop a reusable polypropylene glycol (PPG):β-cyclodextrin (βCD) biosensor for cortisol detection. To achieve the most stable support for βCD, we developed two PPG surfaces. The first surface is based on a gold surface modified with SAM of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3MPA), and the second surface is based on a glassy carbon surface grafted with 4-carboxyphenyl diazonium salt. We characterized both surfaces by EIS, XPS, and ATR-FTIR and evaluated the stability and reusability of each surface. We found the GC-carboxyphenyl-PPG:βCD is stable for at least 1 month. We have also demonstrated the reusability of the surface up to 10 times. In detecting cortisol, we used a nonfaradaic electrochemical impedance capacitive model to interpret the surface confirmation changes. We achieved sensitive detection of cortisol in PBS buffer, urine, and saliva with limit of detection of 2.13, 1.29, and 1.33 nM, respectively.

Abstract
The autoimmune regulator (AIRE) protein functions as a tetramer, interacting with partner proteins to form the “AIRE complex,” which relieves RNA Pol II stalling in the chromatin of medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs). AIRE is the primary mTEC transcriptional controller, promoting the expression of a large set of peripheral tissue antigen genes implicated in the negative selection of self-reactive thymocytes. Under normal conditions, the SIRT1 protein temporarily interacts with AIRE and deacetylates K residues of the AIRE SAND domain. Once the AIRE SAND domain is deacetylated, the binding with SIRT1 is undone, allowing the AIRE complex to proceed downstream with the RNA Pol II to the elongation phase of transcription. Considering that the in silico and in vitro binding of the AIRE SAND domain with SIRT1 provides a powerful model system for studying the dominant SAND G228W mutation mechanism, which causes the autoimmune polyglandular syndrome-1, we integrated computational molecular modeling, docking, dynamics between the whole SAND domain with SIRT1, and surface plasmon resonance using a peptide harboring the 211 to 230 residues of the SAND domain, to compare the structure and energetics of binding/release between AIRE G228 (wild-type) and W228 (mutant) SAND domain to SIRT1. We observed that the G228W mutation in the SAND domain negatively influences the AIRE-SIRT1 interaction. The disturbed interaction might cause a disruption in the binding of the AIRE SAND domain with the SIRT1 catalytic site, impairing the AIRE complex to proceed downstream with RNA Pol II.

Abstract
Despite the widespread application of the boronate-affinity cross-linking (BAC) in the separation, enrichment, and sensing of glycoconjugates, it remains a huge challenge to integrate the BAC into the selective electrochemical detection of glycoconjugates due to the poor selectivity of the BAC. Herein, we demonstrate a BAC-based ratiometric electrochemical method for the simple, low-cost, and highly sensitive and selective detection of glycoconjugates. Briefly, the methylene blue (MB)-tagged nucleic acid aptamer is exploited as the recognition element to selectively capture target glycoconjugate, to which a large number of ferrocene (Fc) tags are subsequently labeled via the BAC between the phenylboronic acid (PBA) group and the cis-diol site of the oligosaccharide chains on the captured targets. Using the MB tag as the internal reference and the Fc tag as the reporter of the target capture, the dual-signal output enables the ratiometric detection. Due to the presence of a high density of the cis-diol sites on a glycoconjugate, sufficiently high sensitivity can be obtained even without using any amplification strategies. Using glycoprotein mucin 1 (MUC1) as the model target, the signal ratio (IFc/IMB) exhibits good linearity over the range from 0.05 to 50 U/mL, with a detection limit of 0.021 U/mL. In addition to the high sensitivity and selectivity, the results of the analysis of MUC1 in serum samples are acceptable. By virtue of its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and high robustness and reproducibility, this BAC-based ratiometric electrochemical method holds great promise in the highly sensitive and selective detection of glycoconjugates.

Rationally constructed ZnCdS-HDCs@In 2S 3-HNRs double-hollow heterojunction with promoted light capture capability for photoelectrochemical biosensing. Biosens Bioelectron 2022; 201:113957. [PMID: 34999520 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2021.113957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2021] [Revised: 12/12/2021] [Accepted: 12/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
The construction of novel heterojunction is regarded as an operative scheme to promote the transport of photogenerated carriers and reduce electron-hole pair recombination to enhance the photoelectrochemical (PEC) performances. Herein, ZnCdS hollow dodecahedral nanocages (ZnCdS-HDCs) and In2S3 hollow nanorods (In2S3-HNRs), which were derived from two different of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) by solvothermal sulfidation method and were constructed an original double-hollow heterostructure ZnCdS-HDCs@In2S3-HNRs. The intrinsic mechanism of In2S3-HNRs benefiting from unique morphology to boost the photochemical properties under visible light irradiation was illustrated. Meanwhile, the mechanism of the novel type II heterojunction with staggered matching levels was revealed, which could effectively restrict electron-hole pair reassociation separation, and accelerated charge separation and transfer. Therefore, based on the excellent PEC performance of ZnCdS- HDCs@In2S3-HNRs double-hollow heterostructure, a signal-off PEC biosensor platform without labeled was constructed for the detection of CA15-3, which manifested acceptable specificity, reproducibility and stability. Additionally, the expected PEC biosensors showed a linear response range from 1.0 × 10-5 to 10 U·mL-1 in addition to an ultralow detection limit of 3.78 × 10-6 U·mL-1. This study innovatively constructed and prepared a new double-hollow heterojunction material with superior PEC nature for the application of PEC biosensing, which exhibits a broad application prospect.
