Abstract
Castration-resistant prostate cancer (PCa) causes severe bone metastasis (BM), which significantly increases mortality in men with PCa. Imaging tests and radiometric scanning require long analysis times, expensive equipment, specialized personnel, and a slow turnaround. New visualization technologies are expected to solve the above problems. Nonetheless, existing visualization techniques barely meet the urgency for precise diagnosis because the human eyes cannot recognize and capture even slight variations in visual information. By using dye differentiated superposition enhancement colorimetric biosensors, an effective method to diagnose prostate cancer bone metastases (PCa-BM) with excellent accuracy for naked-eye quantitative detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is developed. The biomarker ALP specific hydrolytic product ascorbic acid can be detected by rhodamine derivatives (Rd) as gold nanobipyramids (Au NBPs) are deposited and grown. Color-recombining enhancement effects between Rd and Au NBPs significantly improved abundance. The 150 U L-1 threshold between normal and abnormal can be identified by color. And with color enhancement effect and double signal response, the ALP index is visually measured to diagnose PCa-BM and provide handy treatment recommendations. Additionally, the proposed colorimetric sensing strategy can be used to diagnose other diseases.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has received considerable attention as a powerful analytical technique for the sensitive and accurate detection of biological analytes owing to its high sensitivity and selectivity and wide dynamic range. To satisfy the growing demand for ultrasensitive analysis techniques with high efficiency and accuracy in complex real sample matrices, considerable efforts have been dedicated to developing ECL strategies to improve the sensitivity of bioanalysis. As one of the most effective approaches, diverse signal amplification strategies have been integrated with ECL biosensors to achieve desirable analytical performance. This review summarizes the recent advances in ECL biosensing based on various signal amplification strategies, including DNA-assisted amplification strategies, efficient ECL luminophores, surface-enhanced electrochemiluminescence, and ratiometric strategies. Sensitivity-enhancing strategies and bio-related applications are discussed in detail. Moreover, the future trends and challenges of ECL biosensors are discussed.

Abstract
Herein, we report an electrochemical biosensor based on the supramolecular host-guest recognition between cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and L -Phenylalanine-Cu(II) Complex for pyrophosphate (PPi) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) analysis. First, L -Phe-Cu(II) Complex is simply synthesized by the complexation of Cu(II) (metal node) with L -Phe (bioorganic ligand), which can be immobilized onto CB[7] modified electrode via host-guest interaction of CB[7] and L -Phe. In this process, the signal of the Complex triggered electro-catalytic reduction of H 2 O 2 can be captured. Next, in the view of strong chelation between PPi and Cu(II), a biosensing system of the model "PPi and Cu(II) premixing, then adding L -Phe" is designed and the platform can be applied for PPi analysis well by hampering the formation of L -Phe-Cu(II) Complex. Along with ALP introduction, PPi can be hydrolyzed into orthophosphate (Pi), where abundant Cu(II) ions are released to form L -Phe-Cu(II) Complex, which gives rise to the catalytic reaction of Complex to H 2 O 2 reduction. The quantitative analysis of H 2 O 2 , PPi and ALP activity is achieved successfully and the detection of limits are 0.067 μM, 0.42 μM and 0.09 mU/mL ( S / N =3), respectively. With the merits of high sensitivity and selectivity, cost-effectiveness, and simplification, our developed analytical system has great potential to act on diagnosis and treatment of ALP-related diseases.

Abstract
A sensitive homogeneous electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor for flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) detection was developed by combining highly sensitive ECL detection, high efficiency of branched hybridization chain reaction (BHCR) amplification, a convenient homogeneous strategy, and simple ultrafiltration separation. Magnetic beads were first modified with well-designed double flap DNAs containing 5'-flaps. In the presence of FEN1, the 5'-flap can be cleaved, and a large amount of single-stranded DNA can be produced, which can be separated easily from the double-flap DNA-modified beads by a magnet. Then, the cleaved 5'-flap can be used to initiate BHCR amplification to produce a large amount of long-strand dsDNA. Ru(phen)32+ can insert dsDNA to form Ru-dsDNAs, which can be easily separated from the main solution through ultrafiltration. The ECL signal from the separated Ru-dsDNAs has a good linear relationship with the logarithm of the FEN1 concentration ranging from 6.5 × 10-2 ∼ 6.5 × 103 U/L with a detection limit of 2.2 × 10-2 U/L. The proposed biosensor was used to evaluate FEN1 activity in real samples with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), an essential hydrolase with crucial roles in living organisms, has widely been regarded as a biomarker for various human diseases in clinical diagnoses. Herein, taking advantage of cobalt oxyhydroxide (CoOOH) nanoflakes and nonenzymatic cascade recycling amplification (CRA), a highly sensitive and label-free fluorescence biosensing strategy for the determination of ALP activity is introduced. In our design, ALP can promote the dephosphorylation of l-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP) to reduce ascorbic acid (AA), which is then able to decompose CoOOH in a nucleic acids@CoOOH nanocomplex into Co2+ cofactors. Further, enzyme-free CRA was rapidly initiated by integrating DNAzyme recycling amplification and catalytic hairpin assembly, resulting in the generation of an abundance of G-quadruplex structure-contained DNA duplexes. In the presence of thioflavin T (ThT), analytical target ALP was converted in an amplified and activatable fluorescence signal. The experimental results show that this method can be applied for the quantitative analysis of ALP activity with a low detection limit of 0.027 mU/mL. Moreover, this developed biosensing approach exhibits excellent specificity, and the evaluation of ALP activity in the complex human serum samples was successfully realized, indicating that it can afford a reliable, robust, and cost-effective nanoplatform for an ALP-based clinical diagnosis and for biomedical research.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of cancer is of paramount significance for the therapeutic intervention of cancers. Although the detection of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has emerged as a promising, minimally invasive approach for early cancer diagnosis, there is an urgent need to develop a highly sensitive and rapid method to precisely identify plasma cfDNA from clinical samples. Herein, we report a robust fluorescent "turn-on" clutch probe based on non-emissive QDs-Ru complexes to rapidly recognize EGFR gene mutation in plasma cfDNA from lung cancer patients. In this system, the initially quenched emission of QDs is recovered while the red emission of Ru(II) complexes is switched on. This is because the Ru(II) complexes can specifically intercalate into the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) to form Ru-dsDNA complexes and simultaneously liberate free QDs from the QDs-Ru complexes, which leads to the occurrence of an overlaid red fluorescence. In short, the fluorescent "turn-on" clutch probe offers a specific, rapid, and sensitive paradigm for the recognition of plasma cfDNA biomarkers from clinical samples, providing a convenient and low-cost approach for the early diagnosis of cancer and other gene-mutated diseases.

Abstract
In situ quantitative analysis of enzymes such as phosphatase is important to understand a number of involved biological processes ranging from various metabolisms to signal transduction and cellular regulation. In this paper, a novel in situ measurement strategy was proposed to detect alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in different locations within single living cells. The principle is based on the measurement of the resonance light scattering brightness ratio (SBR) per moving nanoparticle that forms in an ALP-related chemical reaction. In the method, a novel resonance light scattering correlation spectroscopy (RLSCS) system was developed using two lasers for illumination or two detection channels. Using the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as probes, the Au@Ag nanoparticles (Au@Ag NPs) formed due to the ALP-catalyzed hydrolysis of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP) and the subsequent reduction-deposition reaction of Ag ions that occurred on the AuNPs. The SBR value per moving particle was determined based on the obtained RLS intensity traces and RLSCS curves. The SBR value was found to be not influenced by the intracellular viscosity and size that was confirmed in the experiments. The linear relation between the SBR and ALP activity was established and applied to detect ALP activity and evaluate the inhibition of different drugs. Finally, the method was successfully used to in situ measure ALP activity within living cells. The method overcomes the shortcoming of conventional methods that lack quantitative analysis and are susceptible to intracellular viscosity.

Abstract
Recently, electrochemistry- and photoelectrochemistry-based biosensors have been regarded as powerful tools for trace monitoring of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) due to the fact of their intrinsic advantages (e.g., high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, small background, and low cost), which play an important role in early cancer screening and diagnosis and benefit people's increasing demands for medical and health services. Thus, this mini-review will introduce the current trends in electrochemical and photoelectrochemical biosensors for CEA assay and classify them into two main categories according to the interactions between target and biorecognition elements: immunosensors and aptasensors. Some recent illustrative examples are summarized for interested readers, accompanied by simple descriptions of the related signaling strategies, advanced materials, and detection modes. Finally, the development prospects and challenges of future electrochemical and photoelectrochemical biosensors are considered.

Abstract
Rare electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensors have been developed based on the direct regulation of ionic current because it is difficult to establish a relationship between ionic current and ECL reporting. Ionic current can be adjusted by the effective radius and charge density of a functionalized microchannel and is frequently adopted to develop electrical sensors. Here, we show a novel ECL sensing platform that combines the microchannel-based electrical sensing technology with an ECL reporting system for the first time. The target regulated the effective radius and charge density of a microchannel which in turn adjusted the ionic transport in it and finally caused the change of ECL reporting of a tris(1,10-phenanthroline)ruthenium(ii)/tripropylamine system. The developed system has already been applied to detect aflatoxin B1 for demonstration. This configuration separated the target sensing and reporting reactions to achieve direct regulation of ECL reporting by ionic current and expanded the application of the ECL detection technology to microanalysis.
