Abstract
Accurate detection of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) plays a vital role in the diagnosis of various diseases. The current miRNA detection methods, however, are widely criticized for their low sensitivity and excessive background signal. Herein, we propose a graphene oxide (GO) based fluorescent biosensor for sensitive and reliable miRNA analysis with a low background signal by utilizing exonuclease III (Exo III)-assisted target recycling and hybridization chain reaction (HCR). To initiate Exo-III-assisted dual signal cycles, a hairpin DNA probe (H probe) was developed for selective miRNA binding. Dye quenching occurred when carboxyfluorescein (FAM)-labeled hairpins (HP1 and HP1) were unable to bind to their intended target and instead adsorb onto the surface of GO via p-stacking interactions. Exo III sequentially cleaved the 3'-strand of the H probe and the S probe upon attachment of the target miRNA, resulting in the release of the miRNA and the autonomous production of a "g" sequence. The released target miRNA then hybridized with a second H probe and progressed to the subsequent reaction phase. With the help of the HP1 and HP2 probes, a lengthy dsDNA product was produced when the "g" sequence triggered HCR. The dsDNA product was not absorbed by GO, and the material instead fluoresced brightly. As a result, the amount of miRNA of interest was measured. With a LOD of only 5.6 fM, this bioassay demonstrated excellent selectivity and great sensitivity.

Abstract
We present a novel label-free colorimetric method for detecting exonuclease III (Exo III) activity using the peroxidase-mimicking activity of cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria). Exo III, an enzyme that specifically catalyzes the stepwise removal of mononucleotides from the 3'-OH termini of double-stranded DNA, plays a significant role in various cellular and physiological processes, including DNA proofreading and repair. Malfunctions of Exo III have been associated with increased cancer risks. To assay the activity of Exo III, we applied the previous reports in that the peroxidase-mimicking activity of nanoceria is inhibited due to the aggregation induced by the electrostatic attraction between DNA and nanoceria. In the presence of Exo III, the substrate DNA (subDNA), which inhibits nanoceria's activity, is degraded, thereby restoring the peroxidase-mimicking activity of nanoceria. Consequently, the 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate is oxidized, leading to a color change from colorless to blue, along with an increase in the absorbance intensity. This approach enabled us to reliably detect Exo III at a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.263 units/mL across a broad dynamic range from 3.1 to 400 units/mL, respectively, with an outstanding specificity. Since this approach does not require radiolabels, complex DNA design, or sophisticated experimental techniques, it provides a simpler and more feasible alternative to standard methods.

Abstract
In this work, homo-FRET (Förster resonance energy transfer between the same kind of fluorophores) takes place in a hetero-FRET (FRET between two different fluorophores) system and can effectively improve the energy transfer efficiency. Herein, a novel ratiometric fluorescence method was developed for the detection of nuclease activity. Exonuclease III (Exo III), an enzyme which has a high exodeoxyribonuclease activity for double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the 3' to 5' direction, was chosen as a proof of concept of this strategy. In a linear dsDNA template, the occurrence of homo-FRET in two Cy3 donors enables the highly efficient transfer of energy to the Cy5 acceptor. The ratio of fluorescence intensity between Cy3 and Cy5 (FD/FA) increases in an Exo III concentration-dependent manner, which built the foundation of Exo III quantification. This method exhibits a linear range from 0.25 to 8 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.17 U mL-1. Importantly, this platform also shows the potential for screening Exo III inhibitors and detecting Exo III activity in complex samples.

Abstract
Extracellular DNA, also called cell-free DNA, released from dying cells or activated immune cells can be recognized by the immune system as a danger signal causing or enhancing inflammation. The cleavage of extracellular DNA is crucial for limiting the inflammatory response and maintaining homeostasis. Deoxyribonucleases (DNases) as enzymes that degrade DNA are hypothesized to play a key role in this process as a determinant of the variable concentration of extracellular DNA. DNases are divided into two families-DNase I and DNase II, according to their biochemical and biological properties as well as the tissue-specific production. Studies have shown that low DNase activity is both, a biomarker and a pathogenic factor in systemic lupus erythematosus. Interventional experiments proved that administration of exogenous DNase has beneficial effects in inflammatory diseases. Recombinant human DNase reduces mucus viscosity in lungs and is used for the treatment of patients with cystic fibrosis. This review summarizes the currently available published data about DNases, their activity as a potential biomarker and methods used for their assessment. An overview of the experiments with systemic administration of DNase is also included. Whether low-plasma DNase activity is involved in the etiopathogenesis of diseases remains unknown and needs to be elucidated.

Abstract
The 3'-5' exonuclease enzyme plays a dominant role in multiple pivotal physiological activities, such as DNA replication and repair processes. In this study, we designed a sensitive graphene oxide (GO)-based probe for the detection of exonuclease enzymatic activity. In the absence of Exo III, the strong π-π interaction between the fluorophore-tagged DNA and GO causes the efficient fluorescence quenching via a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In contrast, in the presence of Exo III, the fluorophore-tagged 3'-hydroxyl termini of the DNA probe was digested by Exo III to set the fluorophore free from adsorption when GO was introduced, causing an inefficient fluorescence quenching. As a result, the fluorescence intensity of the sensor was found to be proportional to the concentration of Exo III; towards the detection of Exo III, this simple GO-based probe demonstrated a highly sensitive and selective linear response in the low detection range from 0.01 U mL-1 to 0.5 U mL-1 and with the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.001 U mL-1. Compared with other fluorescent probes, this assay exhibited superior sensitivity and selectivity in both buffer and fetal bovine serum samples, in addition to being cost effective and having a simple setup.

Abstract
Developing the high selectivity and sensitivity strategy for nucleic acid detection is crucial for early diagnosis and therapy of diseases. In this work, a novel low back-ground fluorescent sensor platform for the detection of nucleic acid has been developed based on δ-FeOOH nanosheets integrating with exonuclease III-assisted target-recycling signal amplification. Because of the strong binding ability between the single-strand DNA (ssDNA) and the δ-FeOOH nanosheets, the dye-labeled ssDNA probe would be quenched by δ-FeOOH nanosheets through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). By using magnetic separate properties of δ-FeOOH, the background signal was separated from the sensor system, and the low background sensor system was obtained. After adding the target DNA, a double-strand DNA complex (dsDNA) would be formed between the target DNA and dye-labeled ssDNA probe. Then, the dye-labeled ssDNA probe in the dsDNA complex would be stepwise hydrolyzed into short fragments from 3'-terminus by Exonuclease III, and the fluorescence signal was recovered due to the weak bind affinity between the short fragments and δ-FeOOH nanosheets. By using the fluorescence quenching ability of δ-FeOOH nanosheets and enzyme-assisted target-recycling signal amplification, this strategy could show an excellent selectivity toward hepatitis C virus DNA with a low detection limit of 10 pM. By simply changing the dye-labeled ssDNA probe sequence, this sensing platform can be developed as a universal approach for the simple, sensitive, and selective detection of different target DNA.

Abstract
Fast label-free chemiluminescent assay for determination of exonuclease III (ExoIII) activity measured towards hairpin oligonucleotide substrates was developed. The designed substrates consisted of EAD2 aptamer to hemin which was associated with DNA sequence complementary to 5'-terminus fragment of EAD2. In the presence of ExoIII the associated sequence of the hairpin stem was digested, producing EAD2 aptamer which reacted with hemin with the formation of peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme (PMDNAzyme). The catalytic activity of the produced PMDNAzyme was measured towards luminol/H2O2. Under the optimized conditions the limit of detection and sensitivity of the one-step chemiluminescent assay of ExoIII were 7.3 nM and 1.7 × 108 M-1, respectively. The coefficient of variation (CV) was lower than 6%.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) is one of the most attributed materials for opening new possibilities in the development of next generation biosensors. Due to the coexistence of hydrophobic domain from pristine graphite structure and hydrophilic oxygen containing functional groups, GO exhibits good water dispersibility, biocompatibility, and high affinity for specific biomolecules as well as properties of graphene itself partly depending on preparation methods. These properties of GO provided a lot of opportunities for the development of novel biological sensing platforms, including biosensors based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS), surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), and electrochemical detection. In this review, we classify GO-based biological sensors developed so far by their signal generation strategy and provide the comprehensive overview of them. In addition, we offer insights into how the GO attributed in each sensor system and how they improved the sensing performance.

A self-assembling RNA aptamer-based graphene oxide sensor for the turn-on detection of theophylline in serum. Biosens Bioelectron 2016; 86:8-13. [PMID: 27318104 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2016.06.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2016] [Revised: 05/29/2016] [Accepted: 06/09/2016] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
To date, few effective fluorescent biosensors based on RNA aptamers have been developed because the intrinsic instability of RNA in the presence of nucleases precludes the application of RNA aptamers for the analysis of biological fluids. In this study, we developed a simple, sensitive, selective turn-on fluorescent aptasensor for theophylline detection in serum, utilizing ligand-induced self-assembling RNA aptamers and two different interaction stages of the aptamer fragments with graphene oxide (GO). A single strand of the theophylline RNA aptamer (33-mer) was split at the end loop region into two shorter fragments, one of which was labeled with a fluorophore (FAM). In the absence of theophylline, the adsorption of the two individual fragments on GO brought the fluorophore in close proximity to the GO surface, resulting in highly efficient quenching of fluorescence. The system showed very low background fluorescence. Conversely, the fragments self-assembled into an RNA aptamer/theophylline complex and were dissociated from GO. The quenched fluorescence was significantly recovered, and theophylline could be detected at a wide range of concentrations from 1 to 100μM, with a detection limit of 0.155μM and good selectivity in serum. Moreover, because of the shorter RNA fragments and the effective protection ability of GO from nuclease cleavage, the RNA sequences remained stable during the experiments. This design may serve as an example for the application of RNA aptasensors in the clinical setting.

Utilizing the phenomenon of nucleases exposing oligonucleotide phosphate backbones to phosphatases we present a novel quantitative method for kinetics of nuclease catalysis. Inorganic phosphate released from nuclease products by phosphatases could be quantified in real-time by a fluorescent sensor of inorganic phosphate. Two different nucleases were employed, showing the versatility of this assay for multiple turnover label-free nuclease studies.

Abstract
A label-free and sensitive fluorescence assay for exonuclease activity is developed using commercially available SYBR Green I (SG) dye as signal probe. A proof-of-concept of this assay has been demonstrated by using exonuclease III (Exo III) as a model enzyme. In this assay, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) can bind SG, resulting in a strong fluorescence signal of SG. Upon the addition of Exo III, dsDNA would be digested, and SG emits very weak fluorescence. Thus, Exo III activity can be facilely measured with a simple fluorescence reader. This method has a linear detection range from 1 U/mL to 200 U/mL with a detection limit of 0.7 U/mL. This label-free approach is selective, simple, convenient and cost-efficient without any complex DNA sequence design or fluorescence dye label. The method not only provides a platform for monitoring activity and inhibition of exonuclease but also shows great potential in biological process researches, drug discovery, and clinic diagnostics.

Abstract
A "turn-on" and label-free fluorescent assay for the specific, rapid, and sensitive detection of 3' → 5' exonuclease III activity is reported in this study. The assay is based on the Tb(3+)-promoted G-quadruplex, which lead to the enhancement of Tb(3+) fluorescence due to the energy transfer from guanines. The proposed assay is highly simple, rapid, and cost-effective, and does not require sophisticated experimental techniques such as gel-based equipment or radioactive labels. It can be used for the rapid detection of exonuclease III activity with a detection limit of 0.8 U and a RSD (n = 6) <5 %. Notably, no dye was covalently conjugated to the DNA strands, which offers the advantages of low-cost and being interference-free.

Abstract
Graphene has unique mechanical, electronic, and optical properties, which researchers have used to develop novel electronic materials including transparent conductors and ultrafast transistors. Recently, the understanding of various chemical properties of graphene has facilitated its application in high-performance devices that generate and store energy. Graphene is now expanding its territory beyond electronic and chemical applications toward biomedical areas such as precise biosensing through graphene-quenched fluorescence, graphene-enhanced cell differentiation and growth, and graphene-assisted laser desorption/ionization for mass spectrometry. In this Account, we review recent efforts to apply graphene and graphene oxides (GO) to biomedical research and a few different approaches to prepare graphene materials designed for biomedical applications. Because of its excellent aqueous processability, amphiphilicity, surface functionalizability, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and fluorescence quenching ability, GO chemically exfoliated from oxidized graphite is considered a promising material for biological applications. In addition, the hydrophobicity and flexibility of large-area graphene synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) allow this material to play an important role in cell growth and differentiation. The lack of acceptable classification standards of graphene derivatives based on chemical and physical properties has hindered the biological application of graphene derivatives. The development of an efficient graphene-based biosensor requires stable biofunctionalization of graphene derivatives under physiological conditions with minimal loss of their unique properties. For the development graphene-based therapeutics, researchers will need to build on the standardization of graphene derivatives and study the biofunctionalization of graphene to clearly understand how cells respond to exposure to graphene derivatives. Although several challenging issues remain, initial promising results in these areas point toward significant potential for graphene derivatives in biomedical research.

Abstract
Graphene materials have entered a phase of maturity in their development that is characterized by their explorative utilization in various types of applications and fields from electronics to biomedicine. Herein, we describe the recent advances made with graphene-related materials in the biomedical field and the challenges facing these exciting new tools both in terms of biological activity and toxicological profiling in vitro and in vivo. Graphene materials today have mainly been explored as components of biosensors and for construction of matrices in tissue engineering. Their antimicrobial activity and their capacity to act as drug delivery platforms have also been reported, however, not as coherently. This report will attempt to offer some perspective as to which areas of biomedical applications can expect graphene-related materials to constitute a tool offering improved functionality and previously unavailable options.

Abstract
Recently, graphene oxide (GO), one of the carbon nanomaterials, has received much attention due to its unique physical and chemical properties and high potential in many research areas, including applications as a biosensor and drug delivery vehicle. Various GO-based biosensors have been developed, largely based on its surface adsorption properties for detecting biomolecules, such as nucleotides and peptides, and real-time monitoring of enzymatic reactions. In this review, we discuss recent advances in GO-based biosensors focusing on a novel assay platform for helicase activity, which was also employed in high-throughput screening to discover selective helicase inhibitors.

An ultra-high sensitive platform for fluorescence detection of micrococcal nuclease based on graphene oxide. Biosens Bioelectron 2012; 42:467-73.

Abstract
Micrococcal nuclease (MNase) is the extracellular nuclease of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). It preferentially digests single-stranded nucleic acids. The existence of MNase can be the standard to identify S. aureus and the content of MNase can be used to evaluate the pathogenicity of S. aureus. Herein, an ultra-high sensitive and selective fluorescent sensing platform for MNase is developed based on MNase-induced DNA strand scission and the difference in affinity of graphene oxide (GO) for single-stranded DNA containing different numbers of bases in length. In the absence of MNase, the adsorption of the dye-labeled ssDNA on GO makes the dyes close proximity to GO surface resulting in high efficiency quenching of fluorescence of the dyes. Conversely, and very importantly, in the presence of MNase, it cleaves the dye-labeled ssDNA into small fragments. The introduction of GO into the sensing solution results in weak quenching of the fluorescence of the dyes due to the weak affinity of the short dye-labeled oligonuleotide fragment to GO, and the fluorescence intensity gradually increases with increasing concentration of MNase. MNase can be detected in a range of 8×10⁻⁵ to 1.6×10⁻³ unit/mL with a detection limit of 2.7×10⁻⁵ unit/mL and good selectivity. The detection limit is of two orders of magnitude lower than those reported fluorescence MNase assays. Moreover, when the GO-based biosensor is used in S. aureus sample assays, preeminent fluorescence signals are obtained, thus the platform of the GO-based biosensor can be used to detect MNase in real-world samples.
