Abstract
The treatment of tumors still faces considerable challenges. While conventional treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy provide some curative effects, their side effects and limitations highlight the importance of finding more precise treatment strategies. Aptamers have become an important target molecule in the field of drug delivery systems due to their good affinity and targeting, and they have gradually become an important link from basic research to clinical application. In this paper, we discussed the latest progress of aptamer-mediated nanodrugs, as well as aptamer-mediated photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, and immunotherapy strategies for tumor treatment, and explored the possibility of aptamer-mediated therapy for accurate tumor treatment. The purpose of this review is to provide novel insights for treating tumors with aptamer-mediated therapies by summarizing these innovative strategies, thereby ultimately enhancing the therapeutic efficacy for cancer patients.

BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:233. [PMID: 38785707 PMCID: PMC11117858 DOI: 10.3390/bios14050233] [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: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Exosomal biomarker detection holds great importance in the field of in vitro diagnostics, offering a non-invasive and highly sensitive approach for early disease detection and personalized treatment. Here, we proposed an "APPROACH" strategy, combining aptamer-mediated proximity ligation assay (PLA) with rolling circle amplification (RCA) and time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) for the sensitive and semi-homogenous detection of exosomal biomarkers. PLA probes consisted of a cholesterol-conjugated oligonucleotide, which anchored to the membrane of an exosome, and a specific aptamer oligonucleotide that recognized a target protein of the exosome; the proximal binding of pairs of PLA probes to the same exosome positioned the oligonucleotides in the vicinity of each other, guiding the hybridization and ligation of two subsequently added backbone and connector oligonucleotides to form a circular DNA molecule. Circular DNA formed from PLA underwent rolling circle amplification (RCA) for signal amplification, and the resulting RCA products were subsequently quantified by TR-FRET. The limits of detection provided by APPROACH for the exosomal biomarkers CD63, PD-L1, and HER2 were 0.46 ng∙μL-1, 0.77 ng∙μL-1, and 1.1 ng∙μL-1, respectively, demonstrating excellent analytical performance with high sensitivity and quantification accuracy. Furthermore, the strategy afforded sensitive detection of exosomal CD63 with a LOD of 1.56 ng∙μL-1 in complex biological matrices, which underscored its anti-interference capability and potential for in vitro detection. The proposed strategy demonstrates wide-ranging applicability in quantifying diverse exosomal biomarkers while exhibiting robust analytical characteristics, including high sensitivity and accuracy.

Abstract
Nanomaterials possess unusual physicochemical properties including unique optical, magnetic, electronic properties, and large surface-to-volume ratio. However, nanomaterials face some challenges when they were applied in the field of biomedicine. For example, some nanomaterials suffer from the limitations such as poor selectivity and biocompatibility, low stability, and solubility. To address the above-mentioned obstacles, functional nucleic acid has been widely served as a powerful and versatile ligand for modifying nanomaterials because of their unique characteristics, such as ease of modification, excellent biocompatibility, high stability, predictable intermolecular interaction and recognition ability. The functionally integrating functional nucleic acid with nanomaterials has produced various kinds of nanocomposites and recent advances in applications of functional nucleic acid decorated nanomaterials for cancer imaging and therapy were summarized in this review. Further, we offer an insight into the future challenges and perspectives of functional nucleic acid decorated nanomaterials.

[PMID: 38342267 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130032] [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: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/13/2024]
Abstract
In recent years, remarkable strides have been made in the field of immunotherapy, which has emerged as a standard treatment for many cancers. As a kind of immunotherapy drug, monoclonal antibodies employed in immune checkpoint therapy have proven beneficial for patients with diverse cancer types. However, owing to the extensive heterogeneity of clinical responses and the complexity and variability of the immune system and tumor microenvironment (TME), accurately predicting its efficacy remains a challenge. Recent advances in aptamers provide a promising approach for monitoring alterations within the immune system and TME, thereby facilitating targeted immunotherapy, particularly focused on immune checkpoint blockade, with enhanced antitumor efficiency. Aptamers have been widely used in tumor cell detection, biosensors, drug discovery, and biomarker screening due to their high specificity and high affinity with their targets. This review aims to comprehensively examine the research status and progress of aptamers in cancer diagnosis and immunotherapy, with a specific emphasis on those related to immune checkpoints. Additionally, we will discuss the future research directions and potential therapeutic targets for aptamer-based immune checkpoint therapy, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for targeting immunotherapy molecules and blocking tumor immune escape.

Abstract
Tumor-derived small extracellular vesicles (tEVs) as potential biomarkers possess abundant surface proteins closely related to parent cells, which are crucial for noninvasive cancer diagnosis. However, tEVs exhibit phenotype heterogeneity and low abundance, posing a significant challenge for multiplex detection with a high sensitivity. Herein, we developed a DNA gate-based exponential amplification CRISPR-Cas (DGEAC) system for accurate and ultrasensitive detection of tEVs, which can greatly improve the accuracy of breast cancer (BC) diagnosis. Based on the coexpression of CD63 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on BC-derived tEVs, we developed a dual-aptamer-based AND gate fluorescent probe by proximity hybridization. By integrating the target recognition and trans-cleavage activity of Cas12a, an autocatalysis-driven exponential amplification circuit was developed for ultrasensitive detection of CD63 and VEGF proteins on tEVs, which could avoid false negative signals from single protein or other interfering proteins. We achieved highly sensitive detection of tEVs over a linear range from 1.75 × 103 to 3.5 × 108 particles/mL with a detection limit as low as 1.02 × 103 particles/mL. Furthermore, the DGEAC system can distinguish tEVs from tEVs derived from different BC cell lines, including MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, SKBR3, and MCF-10A. Compared to linear amplification (AUC 90.0%), the DGEAC system effectively differentiates BC in different stages (AUC 98.3%).

Abstract
Exosomal PD-L1 has been increasingly considered a noninvasive and accurate predictive marker for immunotherapy treatment response. However, the clinical monitoring of exosomal PD-L1 expression is still limited by its complex biological environment as well as the lack of a robust isolation strategy. Here, a Tim4-functionalized magnetic core-shell metal-organic framework (denoted as Fe3O4@SiO2-ILI-01@Tim4) was facilely constructed via layer-by-layer assembly. Owing to the strongly hydrophilic organic ligand of 1,3-bis(4-carboxybutyl)imidazolium bromide (ILI), magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2-ILI-01@Tim4 was endowed with the merits of low nonspecific adsorption and quick, easy, and convenient isolation of exosomes. The capture efficiency of Fe3O4@SiO2-ILI-01@Tim4 reached as high as 90.3 ± 0.5% and the recovery rate for exosomes was up to 93.0 ± 6.1%. The purity of the isolated exosomes was 7.5 times higher than that via the ultracentrifugation (UC) method. By further combination with immunofluorescence assay, high throughput and noninvasive exosomal PD-L1 detection for accurate immunotherapy response prediction was achieved. The prognosis accuracy of the developed Fe3O4@SiO2-ILI-01@Tim4-based strategy reached 85.7%, whereas the prognosis accuracy of the clinical gold standard, the PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS) test, was only 57.1%. Most interestingly, the developed method is especially suitable for those patients receiving false negative results in the CPS test. The proposed Fe3O4@SiO2-ILI-01@Tim4 is a highly efficient and robust technique showing great potential in high throughput and noninvasive exosomal PD-L1 detection for accurately predicting immunotherapy efficacy.

Abstract
In recent years, PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade immunotherapy with remarkable efficacy has set off a heat wave. The expression level of PD-L1, which plays a predictive role in anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, could be quantified by noninvasive imaging with radiotracers. Herein, we introduced the synthesis and preliminary biological evaluation of a novel 99mTc-labeled small molecule radiotracer [99mTc]G3C-CBM for PD-L1 imaging. [99mTc]G3C-CBM was achieved with high radiochemical purity (>96 %) and remained good stability in PBS and FBS. In competitive combination experiment, [99mTc]G3C-CBM was displaced by increasing concentrations of unlabeled G3C-CBM, resulting in an IC50 value of 41.25±2.23 nM for G3C-CBM. The uptake of [99mTc]G3C-CBM in A375-hPD-L1 cells (17.51±2.08 %) was approximately 6.47 folds of that in A375 cells (2.71±0.36 %) after co-incubation for 2 h. The biodistribution results showed that the radioactivity uptake in A375-hPD-L1 tumor reached the maximum (0.35±0.01 %ID/g) at 2 h post injection, and the optimum tumor/muscle ratio of 2.94±0.29 occurred at the same time. In addition, [99mTc]G3C-CBM was quickly cleared from the blood with a clearance half-life of just 119.25 min. These results indicate that [99mTc]G3C-CBM is a potential SPECT PD-L1 imaging agent and is worthy of further study.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are crucial mediators of intercellular communication and can be classified based on their physical properties, biomolecular structure, and origin. Among EVs, exosomes have garnered significant attention due to their potential as therapeutic and diagnostic tools. Exosomes are released via fusion of multivesicular bodies on plasma membranes and can be isolated from various biofluids using methods such as differential ultracentrifugation, immune affinity capture, ultrafiltration, and size exclusion chromatography. Herein, an overview of different techniques for exosome characterization and isolation, as well as the diverse applications of exosome detection, including their potential use in drug delivery and disease diagnosis, is provided. Additionally, we discuss the emerging field of exosome detection by sensors, which offers an up-and-coming avenue for point-of-care diagnostic tools development. Overall, this review aims to provide a exhaustive and up-to-date summary of the current state of exosome research.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicle PD-L1 (programmed death-1 ligand 1) is of greater value in tumor diagnosis, prognosis, and efficacy monitoring of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. However, soluble PD-L1 interferes with the accurate detection of extracellular vesicle (EV) PD-L1. Here, we developed a microfluidic differentiation method for the detection of extracellular PD-L1, without the interference of soluble, by DNA computation with lipid probes and PD-L1 aptamer as inputs (DECLA). For the developed DECLA method, a cholesterol-DNA probe was designed that efficiently embeds into the EV membrane, and an aptamer-based PD-L1 probe was used for PD-L1 recognition. Due to the stable secondary structure of the designed connector, only cobinding of cholesterol-DNA and PD-L1 affinity probe induced biotin-labeled connector activation, while soluble PD-L1 cannot hybridize. As a result, PD-L1 EVs can be efficiently captured by streptavidin-functioned herringbone chip and quantified by anti-CD63-induced fluorescence signal. The high specificity of dual-input DNA computation allied to the high sensitivity of microfluidic-based detection was suitable for distinguishing lung cancer patients from healthy donors, highlighting its potential translation to clinical diagnosis and therapy monitoring.
