Abstract
Molecular immobilization and recognition are two key events for the development of biosensors. The general ways for the immobilization and recognition of biomolecules include covalent coupling reactions and non-covalent interactions of antigen-antibody, aptamer-target, glycan-lectin, avidin-biotin and boronic acid-diol. Tetradentate nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) is one of the most common commercial ligands for chelating metal ions. The NTA-metal complexes show high and specific affinity toward hexahistidine tags. Such metal complexes have been widely utilized in protein separation and immobilization for diagnostic applications since most of commercialized proteins have been integrated with hexahistidine tags by synthetic or recombinant techniques. This review focused on the development of biosensors with NTA-metal complexes as the binding units, mainly including surface plasmon resonance, electrochemistry, fluorescence, colorimetry, surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy, chemiluminescence and so on.

Abstract
Pathogen infections present a considerable threat to global health owing to the high morbidity and mortality, and usually multiple pathogens coexist in food and the environment. Consequently, it is in urgent need to develop some multiplexed and sensitive approaches for pathogen detection. Here, we presented a novel strategy using mass tag-mediated surface engineering for simultaneous detection of multiple bacteria by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Following aptamer binding, primer amplification, and DNA hybridization, bacteria were specifically labeled by their corresponding mass tags, which could be released and ionized after laser irradiation. This strategy converted the detection of bacteria to the analysis of mass tags, allowing simultaneous detection of multiple bacteria and avoiding the dependence of microbial mass spectra databases. In addition, this approach applied two rolling circle amplification (RCA) reactions to improve both the capture efficiency and detection sensitivity of the target bacteria. The specificity and the real sample detection were evaluated, and the results demonstrated a potential application of this approach in milk safety monitoring.

Abstract
The role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling in tumorigenesis and metastasis is becoming increasingly clear. Cancer development requires that tumor cells recruit a tumor microenvironment permissive for further tumor growth. This is a dynamic process that takes place by a cross-talk between tumor cells and ECM. As a consequence, molecules derived from the ECM changes associated to cancer are released into the bloodstream, representing potential biomarkers of tumor development. This article highlights the importance of developing and improving bioanalytical methods for the detection of ECM remodeling-derived components, as a step forward to translate the basic knowledge about cancer progression into the clinical practice.

Abstract
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) has been shown to activate matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) that leads to the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. Overexpressed uPA and MMP-2 are regarded as signs of malignant tumors in clinical practice. Therefore, real-time monitoring of the sequential activation of these two signal molecules may have important implications for the evaluation of the invasive potential and tumor progression of breast cancer. However, due to the complicated intracellular environment, visualizing the dynamic changes of protein expression levels in living cells with a noninvasive method is still a great challenge. Here, a novel gold-selenium (Au-Se) fluorescent nanoprobe with excellent selectivity and strong anti-interference capability was designed for the simultaneous in situ imaging of uPA and MMP-2 and real-time monitoring of their changes in living cells. The imaging results demonstrated that the nanoprobe achieved a better prevention of glutathione interference compared to the conventional Au-S nanoprobe, thus it could be applied to actually reflect the expression level of uPA and MMP-2 in different breast cancer cells. Furthermore, the Au-Se nanoprobe could visually present the activation process of the two signal molecules, which play a dual role of insuring the invasiveness evaluation of breast cancer cells. Overall, our work offers a visual biomarker detection method for the judgment of the degree of breast cancer malignancy, and also provides an effective strategy to investigate the relationships among signal molecules of other signaling pathways in the future.

Abstract
We report an open-space microfluidic chip with fluid walls, integrating functions of cell culture and online detection of secreted proteins controlled by the interfacial tension value.
Despite traditional poly-dimethyl siloxane (PDMS) microfluidic devices having great potential in various biological studies, they are limited by sophisticated fabrication processes and low utilization. An easily controlled microfluidic platform with high efficiency and low cost is desperately required. In this work, we present an open-space microfluidic chip with fluid walls, integrating cell culture and online semi-quantitative detection of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) via rolling circle amplification (RCA) reaction. In comparison with conventional co-culture detecting platforms, this method features the prominent advantages of saving reagents and time, a simplified chip fabrication process, and avoiding additional assistance for online detection with the help of an interfacial tension valve. On such a multi-functional microfluidic chip, cells (human umbilical vein endothelial cells and malignant glioma cells) could maintain regular growth and cell viability. VEGF could be detected with excellent specificity and good linearity in the range of 10–250 pg mL–1. Meanwhile, VEGF secreted by malignant glioma cells was also detected online and obviously increased when cells were stimulated by deferoxamine (DFO) to mimic a hypoxic microenvironment. The designed biochip with fluid walls provides a new perspective for micro-total analysis and could be promisingly applied in future clinical diagnosis and drug analysis.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive carriers have extensively attracted attention in recent years. However, long-term and real-time tracking ability with stimuli-responsive carrier is still in its infant stage due to the limitations such as, low efficacy, instability and cytotoxicity in a bio-environment. In this work, we developed a reduction-sensitive carrier composed of lipoic acid-modified low molecular weight polyethyleneimine (LA-PEI) and large surface ratio MoS2 nanosheet integrated via disulfide bond to mimic a high molecular weight PEI. The positively charged carriers loading negatively charged aptamer enter the cells for a real time long-term tracking of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) metabolism in glioma stem cells (GSCs) when stimulated by TGFβ factor secreted from HUVECs. We envision that MoS2-LA-PEI carrier has a promising potential for delivery and monitoring the changes in live cells with low cytotoxicity and high efficiency.
