Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women. It represents a public health problem that must be addressed through the early detection of specific biomarkers and effective treatment. To address this critical issue, it is imperative to implement effective methodologies for specific biomarker detection of lung cancer in real clinical samples. Electrochemical methods, including microfluidic devices and biosensors, can obtain robust results that reduce time, cost, and assay complexity. This comprehensive review will explore specific studies, methodologies, and detection limits and contribute to the depth of the discussion, making it a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians interested in lung cancer diagnosis.

The role of platelets in the regulation of tumor growth and metastasis: the mechanisms and targeted therapy. MedComm (Beijing) 2023; 4:e350. [PMID: 37719444 PMCID: PMC10501337 DOI: 10.1002/mco2.350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Platelets are a class of pluripotent cells that, in addition to hemostasis and maintaining vascular endothelial integrity, are also involved in tumor growth and distant metastasis. The tumor microenvironment is a complex and comprehensive system composed of tumor cells and their surrounding immune and inflammatory cells, tumor-related fibroblasts, nearby interstitial tissues, microvessels, and various cytokines and chemokines. As an important member of the tumor microenvironment, platelets can promote tumor invasion and metastasis through various mechanisms. Understanding the role of platelets in tumor metastasis is important for diagnosing the risk of metastasis and prolonging survival. In this study, we more fully elucidate the underlying mechanisms by which platelets promote tumor growth and metastasis by modulating processes, such as immune escape, angiogenesis, tumor cell homing, and tumor cell exudation, and further summarize the effects of platelet-tumor cell interactions in the tumor microenvironment and possible tumor treatment strategies based on platelet studies. Our summary will more comprehensively and clearly demonstrate the role of platelets in tumor metastasis, so as to help clinical judgment of the potential risk of metastasis in cancer patients, with a view to improving the prognosis of patients.

J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2023; 1227:123840. [PMID: 37494752 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2023.123840] [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: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
For molecular diagnostics in modern biomedical research, electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) based on proteome profiling is important. Now a days, sample preparation such as proteolysis and protein extraction remain incredibly challenging and inefficient. Recent sample-preparation methods based on micro tips show promising results toward the aim "a proteome in an hour". Proteolysis at the tip, is still infrequently observed and does not represent the processing of complex bio-samples. In this study, we outline a unique technique for detecting and extracting human serum CD44 biomarkers by ligand-protein interactions. This method employs macropores silica particles (MPSP) or (MOSF) modified with hyaluronic acid (HA). In order to assist in the profile of the human serum proteome, we limitations of immunoassays for rapid and multimodal proteolysis. For effective in situ proteolysis, in micropipette tips, MPSP were designed as nanoreactors with variable pore size and surface chemistry. In MS-based bottom-up proteome analysis, the device as-built demonstrated favourable sensitivity (LOD of 0.304 ± 0.007 ng/mL and LOQ of 0.973 ± 0.054 ng/mL), selectivity, durability (at -20 °C for 2 months), reuse (at least 10 times), and minimal memory impact. In addition, we examined into specific surface chemistries of nanoparticles for the absorption of proteins in serum and profiled the HA-binding serum proteome, setting a new preliminary benchmark for future databases. Our study not only helped establish a new platform for extracting/detection of CD44 and identifying the HA-binding proteome, but it also offered design recommendations for ligand affinity-based techniques for the antibody-free study of serum biomarkers with a view towards diagnostic applications.

Abstract
The surface chemical characteristics of nanomaterials have a substantial impact on the affinity probe used to enrich proteins and peptides for MALDI-MS analysis of a real human sample. Detecting phosphoproteins involved in signalling is always difficult, even with recent developments in mass spectrometry, because protein phosphorylation is often temporary from complicated mixtures. This review summarizes current research on the successful enrichment of various intriguing glycoproteins and glycol peptides using surface affinity materials with distinctive qualities such as low cost, excellent structural stability, diversity, and multifunction. As a consequence, this review will provide a quick overview of the scholars from various backgrounds who are working in this intriguing interdisciplinary field. Label-free cancer biomarkers and other diseases will benefit from future challenges.

Abstract
The advent of bio-nanotechnology has revolutionized nanodrug delivery by improving drug efficacy and safety. Nevertheless, acceptable carriers for therapeutic molecules are one of the most difficult challenges in drug delivery. Graphene material-based (GMB) and polymer-based drug-loaded nanocarriers have both demonstrated clinical advantages in delivering drugs of interest in vitro/in vivo. Cisplatin (CDDP) is an inorganic chemotherapeutic drug that is commonly used to treat a variety of cancers. However, its clinical use is associated with drug resistance and few side effects, which reduces its antitumor effects. Therefore, we developed a CDDP-loaded chitosan-functionalized graphene oxide nanocomposite (CDDP@CS-GO NC)-based nanodrug delivery system (NDDS). Flow cytometry and confocal imaging show that the CDDP@CS-GO NCs lead to significantly increased intracellular drug accumulation in tumor cells. Cancer cells take up the nanocomposite via endocytosis and can generate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) to increase mitochondrial membrane potential loss (Δψm) and enable cytochrome-c release, followed by the dysregulation of Bcl-2 into the cytosol and activation of caspase-3 to induce cancer cell apoptosis. In vitro experiments demonstrated the excellent cancer therapeutic effect with few side effects of the carriers. CDDP@CS-GO NCs are expected to play an important role in responsive NDDSs for cancer therapy.
