Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-based immunochromatographic tests (ICTs) display long-term stability and an enhanced capability for multiplex biomarker detection, surpassing conventional gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and fluorescence-based ICTs. In this study, we innovatively developed zwitterionic silica-coated MNPs (MNP@Si-Zwit/COOH) with outstanding antifouling capabilities and effectively utilised them for the simultaneous identification of the nucleocapsid protein (N protein) of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and influenza A/B. The carboxyl-functionalised MNPs with 10% zwitterionic ligands (MNP@Si-Zwit 10/COOH) exhibited a wide linear dynamic detection range and the most pronounced signal-to-noise ratio when used as probes in the ICT. The relative limit of detection (LOD) values were achieved in 12 min by using a magnetic assay reader (MAR), with values of 0.0062 ng/mL for SARS-CoV-2 and 0.0051 and 0.0147 ng/mL, respectively, for the N protein of influenza A and influenza B. By integrating computer vision and deep learning to enhance the image processing of immunoassay results for multiplex detection, a classification accuracy in the range of 0.9672-0.9936 was achieved for evaluating the three proteins at concentrations of 0, 0.1, 1, and 10 ng/mL. The proposed MNP-based ICT for the multiplex diagnosis of biomarkers holds substantial promise for applications in both medical institutions and self-administered diagnostic settings.

Abstract
The development of sensitive and efficient cell sensing strategies to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in peripheral blood is crucial for the early diagnosis and prognostic assessment of cancer clinical treatment. Herein, an array of hierarchical flower-like gold microstructures (HFGMs) with anisotropic nanotips was synthesized by a simple electrodeposition method and used as a capture substrate to construct an ECL cytosensor based on the specific recognition of target cells by aptamers. The complex topography of the HFGMs array not only catalyzed the enhancement of ECL signals, but also induced the cells to generate more filopodia, improving the capture efficiency and shortening the capture time. The effect of topographic roughness on cell growth and adhesion propensity was also investigated, while the cell capture efficiency was proposed to be an important indicator affecting the accuracy of the ECL cytosensor. In addition, the capture of cells on the electrode surface increased the steric hindrance, which caused ECL signal changes in the Ru(bpy)32+ and TPrA system, realizing the quantitative detection of MCF-7 cells. The detection range of the sensor was from 102 to 106 cells mL-1 and the detection limit was 18 cells mL-1. The proposed detection method avoids the process of separation, labeling and counting, which has great potential for sensitive detection in clinical applications.

Abstract
Thrombus formation and tissue embedding significantly impair the clinical efficacy and retrievability of temporary interventional medical devices. Herein, we report an insect sclerotization-inspired antifouling armor for tailoring temporary interventional devices with durable resistance to protein adsorption and the following protein-mediated complications. By mimicking the phenol-polyamine chemistry assisted by phenol oxidases during sclerotization, we develop a facile one-step method to crosslink bovine serum albumin (BSA) with oxidized hydrocaffeic acid (HCA), resulting in a stable and universal BSA@HCA armor. Furthermore, the surface of the BSA@HCA armor, enriched with carboxyl groups, supports the secondary grafting of polyethylene glycol (PEG), further enhancing both its antifouling performance and durability. The synergy of robustly immobilized BSA and covalently grafted PEG provide potent resistance to the adhesion of proteins, platelets, and vascular cells in vitro. In ex vivo blood circulation experiment, the armored surface reduces thrombus formation by 95 %. Moreover, the antifouling armor retained over 60 % of its fouling resistance after 28 days of immersion in PBS. Overall, our armor engineering strategy presents a promising solution for enhancing the antifouling properties and clinical performance of temporary interventional medical devices.

Abstract
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs), which shed from solid tumor tissue into blood circulatory system, have attracted wide attention as a biomarker in the early diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. Given their potential significance in clinics, many platforms have been developed to separate CTCs. However, the high-performance isolation of CTCs remains significant challenges including achieving the sensitivity and specificity necessary due to their extreme rarity and severe biofouling in blood, such as billions of background cells and various proteins. With the advancement of CTCs detection technologies in recent years, the highly efficient and highly specific detection platforms for CTCs have gradually been developed, resulting in improving CTC capture efficiency, purity and sensitivity. In this review, we systematically describe the current strategies with surface modifications by utilizing the antifouling property of polymer, peptide, protein and cell membrane for high-performance enrichment of CTCs. To wrap up, we discuss the substantial challenges facing by current technologies and the potential directions for future research and development.

Abstract
Detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is important for early cancer diagnosis, prediction of postoperative recurrence, and individualized treatment. However, it is still challenging to achieve efficient capture and gentle release of CTCs from the complex peripheral blood due to their rarity and fragility. Herein, inspired by the three-dimensional (3D) network structure and high glutathione (GSH) level of the tumor microenvironment (TME), a 3D stereo (3D-G@FTP) fibrous network is developed by combining the liquid-assisted electrospinning method, gas foaming technique, and metal-polyphenol coordination interactions to achieve efficient trapping and gentle release of CTCs. Compared with the traditional 2D@FTP fibrous scaffold, the 3D-G@FTP fibrous network could achieve higher capture efficiency (90.4% vs 78.5%) toward cancer cells in a shorter time (30 min vs 90 min). This platform showed superior capture performance toward heterogeneous cancer cells (HepG2, HCT116, HeLa, and A549) in an epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)-independent manner. In addition, the captured cells with high cell viability (>90.0%) could be gently released under biologically friendly GSH stimulus. More importantly, the 3D-G@FTP fibrous network could sensitively detect 4-19 CTCs from six kinds of cancer patients' blood samples. We expect this TME-inspired 3D stereo fibrous network integrating efficient trapping, broad-spectrum recognition, and gentle release will promote the development of biomimetic devices for rare cell analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Attenuated live bacterial therapy and medical BSA materials have their own advantages in anti-cancer research, and their combination is expected to overcome some of the disadvantages of conventional anti-cancer therapeutics. METHODS AND OBJECTIVE Utilizing the high affinity between biotin and streptavidin, BSA modification on the surface of Escherichia coli (E. coli) was achieved. Then, the adhesion and targeting abilities of BSA modified E. coli was explored on different bladder cancer cells, and the underlying mechanism was also investigated. RESULTS BSA modification on the surface of E. coli enhances its ability to adhere and target cancer cells, and we speculate that these characteristics are related to the expression of SPARC in different bladder cancer cell lines. CONCLUSION BSA and live bacteria have their own advantages in anti-cancer research. In this study, we found that E. coli surface-modified by BSA had stronger adhesion and targeting effects on bladder cancer cells with high expression of SPARC. These findings pave the way for the future studies exploring the combination of BSA combined with live bacteria for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Aptamers are promising targeting agents for imaging and therapy of numerous diseases, including cancer. However, a significant shortcoming of aptamers is their poor stability and fast excretion, limiting their application in vivo. Common strategies to overcome these challenges is to chemically modify aptamers in order to increase their stability and/or to apply formulation technologies such as conjugating them to polymers or nanocarriers in order to increase their circulation half-life. This is expected to result in improved cellular uptake or retention to passively targeted nanomedicines. Herein, we report a modular conjugation strategy based on click chemistry between functionalized tetrazines and trans-cyclooctene (TCO), for the modification of high molecular weight hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) with sgc8 aptamer, fluorescent dyes, and 111In. Our data indicate strong affinity of sgc8 against a range of solid tumor-derived cell lines that have previously not been tested with this aptamer. Nevertheless, nonspecific uptake of scrambled ssDNA-functionalized HPG in cells highlights inherent challenges of aptamer-targeted probes that remain to be solved for clinical translation. We validate HPG-sgc8 as a nontoxic nanoprobe with high affinity against MDA-MB-468 breast and A431 lung cancer cells and show significantly increased plasma stability compared to free sgc8. In vivo quantitative SPECT/CT imaging indicates EPR-mediated tumor uptake of HPG-sgc8 and nontargeted or scrambled ssDNA-conjugated HPG but no statistically significant difference between these formulations in terms of total tumor uptake or retention. Our study emphasizes the need for stringent controls and quantification in the evaluation of aptamer-targeted probes. For this purpose, our versatile synthesis strategy provides a simple approach for the design and evaluation of long-circulating aptamer-conjugated nanoformulations.

Abstract
The rarity of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and the complexity of blood components present major challenges for the efficient isolation of CTCs in blood. The coexisting matters could interfere with the detection of CTCs by adhering to the binding sites on the material surface, leading to the reduced accuracy of biomarker capture in blood. Herein, we developed dynamic bioactive lubricant-infused slippery surfaces by grafting the 1H,1H,2H,2H-heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate polymer and 3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid polymer brushes on quartz plates by UV light-initiated and then grafted cancer cell-binding peptides via reversible catechol-boronate chemistry between phenylboronic acid groups and 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine groups of peptides for high-efficient capture of CTCs and nondestructive release of the desired cells in sugar response. Patterned dynamic bioactive lubricant-infused surfaces (PDBLISs) further exhibited the improved capture efficiency of CTCs and more effective antifouling properties for nonspecific cells and blood components. Moreover, the PDBLIS can efficiently capture rare cancer cells from the mimic of cancer patient's blood samples. We anticipate that the strategy we proposed would be used in further clinical diagnosis of complicated biofluids related to a variety of tumors and exhibit good prospects and potential in future liquid biopsies.

Abstract
The isolation and detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play an important role in early cancer diagnosis and prognosis, providing easy access to identify metastatic cells before clinically detectable metastases. In the past 20 years, according to the heterogeneous expression of CTCs on the surface and their special physical properties (size, morphology, electricity, etc.), a series of in vitro enrichment methods of CTCs have been developed based on microfluidic chip technology, nanomaterials and various nanostructures. In recent years, the in vivo detection of CTCs has attracted considerable attention. Photoacoustic flow cytometry and fluorescence flow cytometry were used to detect CTCs in a noninvasive manner. In addition, flexible magnetic wire and indwelling intravascular non-circulating CTCs isolation system were developed for in vivo CTCs study. In the aspect of downstream analysis, gene analysis and drug sensitivity tests of enriched CTCs were developed based on various existing molecular analysis techniques. All of these studies constitute a complete study of CTCs. Although the existing reviews mainly focus on one aspect of capturing CTCs study, a review that includes the in vivo and in vitro capture and downstream analysis study of CTCs is highly needed. This review focuses on not only the classic work and latest research progress in in vitro capture but also includes the in vivo capture and downstream analysis, discussing the advantages and significance of the different research methods and providing new ideas for solving the heterogeneity and rarity of CTCs.
