Abstract
Biofunctional surface-modification surpassed critical limitation of graphene oxide (GO) in biocompatibility and drug delivery efficiency, contributing to versatile biomedical applications. Here, a protein corona-bridged GO nanoplatform with high drug loading, longstanding hyperthermia, and controllable drug release, was engineered for amplified tumor therapeutic benefits. Structurally, GO surface was installed with phenylboronic acid (PBA) layer, on which iRGD conjugated apolipoprotein A-I (iRGD-apoA-I) was coordinated via boron electron-deficiency, to form the sandwich-like GO nanosheet (iAPG). The GO camouflaging by iRGD-apoA-I corona provided multimodal high doxorubicin (DOX) loading by π-π stacking and coordination, and generated a higher photothermal transformation efficiency simultaneously. In vitro studies demonstrated that iAPG significantly improved drug penetration and internalization, then achieved tumor-targeted DOX release through near-infrared (NIR) controlled endo/lysosome disruption. Moreover, iAPG mediated site-specific drug shuttling to produce a 3.53-fold enhancement of tumor drug-accumulation compared to the free DOX in vivo, and induced deep tumor penetration dramatically. Primary tumor ablation and spontaneous metastasis inhibition were further demonstrated with negligible side effects under optimal NIR. Taken together, our work provided multifunctional protein corona strategy to inorganic nanomaterials toward advantageous biomedical applications.

Abstract
Graphene-based nanomaterials have been widely utilized to fabricate various biosensors for environmental monitoring, food safety, and biomedical diagnostics. The combination of aptamers with graphene for creating biofunctional nanocomposites improved the sensitivity and selectivity of fabricated biosensors due to the unique molecular recognition and biocompatibility of aptamers. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the design, fabrication, and biomedical sensing application of graphene-based aptasensors within the last five years (2013-current). The typical studies on the biomedical fluorescence, colorimetric, electrochemical, electrochemiluminescence, photoelectrochemical, electronic, and force-based sensing of DNA, proteins, enzymes, small molecules, ions, and others are demonstrated and discussed in detail. More attention is paid to a few key points such as the conjugation of aptamers with graphene materials, the fabrication strategies of sensor architectures, and the importance of aptamers on improving the sensing performances. It is expected that this work will provide preliminary and useful guidance for readers to understand the fabrication of graphene-based biosensors and the corresponding sensing mechanisms in one way, and in another way will be helpful to develop novel high performance aptasensors for biological analysis and detection.

Abstract
Since bleomycins (BLMs) play a prominent role in the clinical treatment of various cancers, the development of convenient and sensitive detection assays for BLM is of great significance in cancer therapy and related biological mechanism research. Here, taking advantage of the easily controllable and excitation of the G-triplex DNA structure, we reported a facile, label-free G-triplex based functional molecular beacon (G3MB) sensing system for fluorescence "turn-on" detection of BLM based on BLM-Fe(ii) mediated DNA strand scission. In the presence of BLM, the stable hairpin structure of G3MB undergoes an irreversible cleavage in the loop region that contains a 5'-GT-3' recognition site for BLM. The released G-tract DNA fragment self-assembles into a G-triplex-ThT complex showing a strong fluorescence. Owing to the effective locking of G-tracts in the stem of the G3MB and the specific DNA strand scission by BLM which is like a key for the release of G-tracts, the assay shows high sensitivity and selectivity with a detection limit of 0.2 nM. In addition, satisfactory results were obtained for the detection of BLM in human serum samples. Critically, the convenient "mix-and-detect" protocol, fast response and no need for modifying DNA offered a potential application of the proposed strategy for BLM assay in biomedical and clinical studies.

Abnormal Anionic Porphyrin Sensing Effect for HER2 Gene Related DNA Detection via Impedance Difference between MWCNTs and Single-Stranded DNA or Double-Stranded DNA. Molecules 2018; 23:molecules23102688. [PMID: 30340409 PMCID: PMC6222431 DOI: 10.3390/molecules23102688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2018] [Revised: 10/12/2018] [Accepted: 10/16/2018] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a key tumor marker for several common and deadly cancers. It is of great importance to develop efficient detection methods for its over-expression. In this work, an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) method adjustable by anionic porphyrin for HER2 gene detection has been proposed, based on the impedance difference between multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and DNA. The interesting finding herein is that with the addition of anionic porphyrin, i.e., meso-tetra(4-sulfophenyl)-porphyrin (TSPP), the impedance value obtained at a glass carbon electrode (GCE) modified with MWCNTs and a single stranded DNA (ssDNA), the probe DNA that might be assembled tightly onto MWCNTs through π-π stacking interaction, gets a slight decrease; however, the impedance value from a GCE modified with MWCNTs and a double stranded DNA (dsDNA), the hybrid of the probe DNA with a target DNA, which might be assembled loosely onto MWCNTs for the screening effect of phosphate backbones in dsDNA, gets an obvious decrease. The reason may be that on the one hand, being rich in negative sulfonate groups, TSPP will try to push DNA far away from CNTs surface due to its strong electrostatic repulsion towards DNA; on the other hand, rich in planar phenyl or pyrrole rings, TSPP will compete with DNA for the surface of CNTs since it can also be assembled onto CNTs through conjugative interactions. In this way, the “loosely assembled” dsDNA will be repelled by this anionic porphyrin and released off CNTs surface much more than the “tightly assembled” ssDNA, leading to a bigger difference in the impedance value between dsDNA and ssDNA. Thus, through the amplification effect of TSPP on the impedance difference, the perfectly matched target DNA could be easily determined by EIS without any label. Under the optimized experimental conditions, this electrochemical sensor shows an excellent linear response to target DNA in a concentration range of 2.0 × 10−11–2.0 × 10−6 M with a limit of detection (LOD) of 6.34 × 10−11 M (S/N = 3). This abnormally sensitive electrochemical sensing performance resulting from anionic porphyrin for DNA sequences specific to HER2 gene will offer considerable promise for tumor diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
This review provides an overview of recent progress made in the development of electrochemical biosensors based on phenylboronic acid (PBA) and its derivatives. PBAs are known to selectively bind 1,2- and 1,3-diols to form negatively charged boronate esters in neutral aqueous media and have been used to construct electrochemical glucose sensors because of this selective binding. PBA-modified metal and carbon electrodes have been widely studied as voltammetric and potentiometric glucose sensors. In some cases, ferroceneboronic acid or ferrocene-modified phenylboronic acids are used as sugar-selective redox compounds. Another option for sensors using PBA-modified electrodes is potentiometric detection, in which the changes in surface potential of the electrodes are detected as an output signal. An ion-sensitive field effect transistor (FET) has been used as a signal transducer in potentiometric sensors. Glycoproteins, such as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), avidin, and serum albumin can also be detected by PBA-modified electrodes because they contain hydrocarbon chains on the surface. HbA1c sensors are promising alternatives to enzyme-based glucose sensors for monitoring blood glucose levels over the preceding 2-3months. In addition, PBA-modified electrodes can be used to detect a variety of compounds including hydroxy acids and fluoride (F(-)) ions. PBA-based F(-) ion sensors may be useful if reagentless sensors can be developed.

Abstract
An ability to detect and quantify protein molecules, harbingers of specific pathologies, potentially underpins both early disease diagnosis and an assessment of treatment efficacy. However, the specific detection of a particular protein biomarker in a complex environment is by no means an easy task and requires a progressive improvement in sensor technology. The high surface area, volume, electrical conductance, atomic level thickness and apparent biocompatibility of graphene makes it potentially an exceedingly powerful transducer of biorecognition events; the demands of its application in biosensing, and progress to date are reviewed herein.
