Abstract
The hydroxyl radical concentration-dependent yield of single-strand breaks (SSBs), obtained through correction of scavenging and hindrance effects caused by gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), for fluorophore- and quencher-labeled DNA on AuNPs was 10 times that of free DNA based on fluorescence measurements of X-ray-irradiated DNA on AuNPs. By comparing the fluorescence data that revealed the number of SSBs with the results of mass spectrometry measurements that detected the total damage to DNA, we found that SSBs dominated DNA damage for DNA on AuNPs whereas non-SSB damage dominated for free DNA. The yield of RNA SSBs under X-ray irradiation was similar to that of DNA in the presence of AuNPs, whereas free RNA was more resistive to radiation than DNA. These results indicated the enhanced SSBs were likely catalyzed through the conversion from nucleobase damage to SSBs by AuNPs. The outcome of this work impacts materials and environmental science, sensing, nanotechnology, biology, and medicine.

Abstract
Synthetic analogues of natural oligonucleotides known as locked nucleic acids (LNAs) offer superior nuclease resistance and cytocompatibility for numerous scenarios ranging from in vitro detection to intracellular imaging of nucleic acids. While recognized as stronger hybridization partners than equivalent DNA residues, quantitative analysis of LNA hybridization activity is lacking, especially with respect to competitive displacement of the original hybridization partner by another oligonucleotide. In the current study, we perform in situ measurements of toehold-mediated competitive displacement of soluble, fluorescently labeled primary targets from probe strands immobilized on microspheres using high throughput flow cytometry. Both LNA-DNA hybrid sequences and pure DNA sequences are employed as the immobilized strands, as soluble, fluorescently labeled 9-base-long primary targets, and as unlabeled 15-base-long secondary or competitive targets. In addition to comparing chemically substituted and unsubstituted sequences, we explore the effects of mismatched primary targets and the location of the toehold segment within the primary duplexes on the resulting displacement profiles. The primary duplex or double-stranded probe (dsprobe) systems implemented here exhibited varying responses to unlabeled secondary targets ranging from surprisingly modest primary target displacement activity despite the presence of a six base-long nucleotide toehold segment at the dsprobe free end to distinctive displacement profiles sensitive to LNA substitutions and the placement of the toehold segment closer to the microsphere surface.

Abstract
Imaging intracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) demonstrated an essential role in exposing their biological and pathological functions. However, the detection of sequence-specific miRNAs in living cells remains a key challenge. Herein, a facile amplified multiple intracellular miRNAs imaging platform was constructed based on Mo2B nanosheets (NSs) fluorescence (FL) quenching and hybridization chain reaction (HCR). The Mo2B NSs demonstrated strong interaction with the hairpin probes (HPs), ssDNA loop, and excellent multiple FL dyes quenching performance, achieving ultralow background signal. After transfection, the HPs recognized specific targets miRNAs, the corresponding HCR was triggered to produce tremendous DNA-miRNA duplex helixes, which dissociated from the surface of the Mo2B NSs to produce strong FL for miRNAs detection. It realized to image multiple miRNAs biomarkers in different cells to discriminate cancer cells from normal cells owing to the excellent sensitivity, and the regulated expression change of miRNAs in cancer cells was also successfully monitored. The facile and versatile Mo2B-based FL quenching platform open an avenue to profile miRNAs expression pattern in living cells, and has great applications in miRNAs based biological and biomedical research.
