Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide that presents a substantial peril to human health. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is a main subtype of lung cancer with heightened metastasis and invasion ability. The predominant treatment approaches currently comprise surgical interventions, chemotherapy regimens, and radiotherapeutic procedures. However, it poses significant clinical challenges due to its tumor heterogeneity and drug resistance, resulting in diminished patient survival rates. Therefore, the development of novel treatment strategies for NSCLC is necessary. Ferroptosis was characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and the accumulation of lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative damage of cells and eventually cell death. An increasing number of studies have found that exploiting the induction of ferroptosis may be a potential therapeutic approach in NSCLC. Recent investigations have underscored the remarkable potential of natural products in the cancer treatment, owing to their potent activity and high safety profiles. Notably, accumulating evidences have shown that targeting ferroptosis through natural compounds as a novel strategy for combating NSCLC holds considerable promise. Nevertheless, the existing literature on comprehensive reviews elucidating the role of natural products inducing the ferroptosis for NSCLC therapy remains relatively sparse. In order to furnish a valuable reference and support for the identification of natural products inducing ferroptosis in anti-NSCLC therapeutics, this article provided a comprehensive review explaining the mechanisms by which natural products selectively target ferroptosis and modulate the pathogenesis of NSCLC.

Abstract
Tobacco bacterial wilt is a serious disease caused by the soil-borne bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum (R. solanacearum). Herein, a rapid and purification-free α-hemolysin (α-HL) nanopore-sensing strategy based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and lambda exonuclease digestion was established to detect R. solanacearum. A 198-nucleotide-long single-stranded DNA was obtained via asymmetric PCR or the lambda exonuclease-mediated digestion of the PCR product. The DNA fragment produced unique long-lived, current-blocking signals when it passed through the α-HL nanopore. This sensing approach can allow for the determination of R. solanacearum in tobacco samples and can be conveniently extended to other DNA monitoring because of the extremely wide range of PCR applications.

Abstract
This paper describes a method for detecting microRNA (miRNA) expression patterns using the nanopore-based DNA computing technology. miRNAs have shown promise as markers for cancer diagnosis due to their cancer type specificity, and therefore simple strategies for miRNA pattern recognition are required. We propose a system for pattern recognition of five types of miRNAs overexpressed in bile duct cancer (BDC). The information of miRNAs from BDC is encoded in diagnostic DNAs (dgDNAs) and decoded electrically by nanopore analysis. With this system, we succeeded in the label-free detection of miRNA expression patterns from the plasma of BDC patients. Moreover, our dgDNA-miRNA complexes can be detected at subfemtomolar concentrations, which is a significant improvement compared to previously reported limits of detection (∼10-12 M) for similar analytical platforms. Nanopore decoding of dgDNA-encoded information represents a promising tool for simple and early cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
To be considered as a promising candidate for mimicking biological nanochannels, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been used to explore the mass transport phenomena in recent years. In this study, the single nucleotide transport phenomena are comparatively studied using individual CNTs with a length of ∼15 μm and diameters ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 nm. In the case of CNTs with a diameter of 1.57-1.98 nm, the current traces of nucleotide transport are independent with the metallicity of CNTs and consist of single peak current pulses, whereas extraordinary stepwise current signals are observed in CNT with a diameter of 2.33 nm. It suggests that there is only one molecule in the nanochannel at a time until the diameter of CNT increases to 2.33 nm. Furthermore, it also demonstrates that the single nucleotides can be identified statistically according to their current pulses, indicating the potential application of CNT-based sensors for nucleotides identification.

Abstract
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the abundant forms of genetic variations, which are closely associated with serious genetic and inherited diseases, even cancers. Here, a novel SNP detection assay has been developed for single-nucleotide discrimination by nanopore sensing platform with DNA probed Au nanoparticles as transport carriers. The SNP of p53 gene mutation in gastric cancer has been successfully detected in the femtomolar concentration by nanopore sensing. The robust biosensing strategy offers a way for solid nanopore sensors integrated with varied nanoparticles to achieve single-nucleotide distinction with high sensitivity and spatial resolution, which promises tremendous potential applications of nanopore sensing for early diagnosis and disease prevention in the near future.

Abstract
This paper describes a nanospace probing system constructed with a pore-forming toxin and a hairpin DNA (hpDNA) molecule. The single hpDNA molecule can be inserted and can move in the confined nanospace of the alpha-hemolysin (αHL) pore. The molecular motion of the hpDNA can be determined based on the fluctuation of the blocking current via channel current measurements. Using this system, we investigated the effect of viscosity of the aqueous solution in the macrospace (bulk) and in the confined nanospace with a small molecule (glycerol) and a polymer (PEG600). The molecular motion of the hpDNA in the nanospace differed in glycerol and PEG600 solutions, while the viscosity remained the same in the bulk solution. The fundamental factors for the viscosity in glycerol and PEG600 solutions are hydrogen bonding and the entanglement of polymer chains, respectively. This difference in factors becomes significant in confined nanospaces, and our system allows us to observe its effect. Additionally, we constructed a spatially resolved nanopore probe integrated into a gold nanoneedle. The αHL-hpDNA nanoprobe system was constructed with the nanoneedle and can be used to monitor the nanospace with nanometer spatial resolution.

Abstract
Nanoscale transport through nanopores and live-cell membranes plays a vital role in both key biological processes as well as biosensing and DNA sequencing. Active translocation of DNA through these nanopores usually needs enzyme assistance. Here we present a nanopore derived from truncated helicase E1 of bovine papillomavirus (BPV) with a lumen diameter of c.a. 1.3 nm. Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) imaging and single channel recording confirm its insertion into planar lipid bilayer (BLM). The helicase nanopore in BLM allows the passive single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) transport and retains the helicase activity in vitro. Furthermore, we incorporate this helicase nanopore into the live cell membrane of HEK293T cells, and monitor the ssDNA delivery into the cell real-time at single molecule level. This type of nanopore is expected to provide an interesting tool to study the biophysics of biomotors in vitro, with potential applications in biosensing, drug delivery and real-time single cell analysis. Active translocation of DNA through nanopores usually needs enzyme assistance. Here authors present a nanopore derived from helicase E1 of bovine papillomavirus (BPV) which acts as a conductive pore embedded in lipid membrane to allow the translocation of ssDNA and unwinding of dsDNA.
