Abstract
These days, cancer is thought to be more than just one illness, with several complex subtypes that require different screening approaches. These subtypes can be distinguished by the distinct markings left by metabolites, proteins, miRNA, and DNA. Personalized illness management may be possible if cancer is categorized according to its biomarkers. In order to stop cancer from spreading and posing a significant risk to patient survival, early detection and prompt treatment are essential. Traditional cancer screening techniques are tedious, time-consuming, and require expert personnel for analysis. This has led scientists to reevaluate screening methodologies and make use of emerging technologies to achieve better results. Using time and money saving techniques, these methodologies integrate the procedures from sample preparation to detection in small devices with high accuracy and sensitivity. With its proven potential for biomedical use, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been widely used in biosensing applications, particularly in biomarker identification. Consideration was given especially to the potential of SERS as a portable clinical diagnostic tool. The approaches to SERS-based sensing technologies for both invasive and non-invasive samples are reviewed in this article, along with sample preparation techniques and obstacles. Aside from these significant constraints in the detection approach and techniques, the review also takes into account the complexity of biological fluids, the availability of biomarkers, and their sensitivity and selectivity, which are generally lowered. Massive ways to maintain sensing capabilities in clinical samples are being developed recently to get over this restriction. SERS is known to be a reliable diagnostic method for treatment judgments. Nonetheless, there is still room for advancement in terms of portability, creation of diagnostic apps, and interdisciplinary AI-based applications. Therefore, we will outline the current state of technological maturity for SERS-based cancer biomarker detection in this article. The review will meet the demand for reviewing various sample types (invasive and non-invasive) of cancer biomarkers and their detection using SERS. It will also shed light on the growing body of research on portable methods for clinical application and quick cancer detection.

Abstract
Protein unfolding and aggregation are often correlated with numerous diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and other debilitating neurological disorders. Such adverse events consist of a plethora of competing mechanisms, particularly interactions that control the stability and cooperativity of the process. However, it remains challenging to probe the molecular mechanism of protein dynamics such as aggregation, and monitor them in real-time under physiological conditions. Recently, Raman spectroscopy and its plasmon-enhanced counterparts, such as surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS), have emerged as sensitive analytical tools that have the potential to perform molecular studies of functional groups and are showing significant promise in probing events related to protein aggregation. We summarize the fundamental working principles of Raman, SERS, and TERS as nondestructive, easy-to-perform, and fast tools for probing protein dynamics and aggregation. Finally, we highlight the utility of these techniques for the analysis of vibrational spectra of aggregation of proteins from various sources such as tissues, pathogens, food, biopharmaceuticals, and lastly, biological fouling to retrieve precise chemical information, which can be potentially translated to practical applications and point-of-care (PoC) devices. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Nanodevices Nanotechnology Approaches to Biology > Nanoscale Systems in Biology.

[PMID: 37687235 PMCID: PMC10490040 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28176406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Revised: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
As a fast and non-destructive spectroscopic analysis technique, Raman spectroscopy has been widely applied in chemistry. However, noise is usually unavoidable in Raman spectra. Hence, denoising is an important step before Raman spectral analysis. A novel spectral denoising method based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) was introduced to solve the above problem. The spectrum is decomposed into a series of modes (uk) by VMD. Then, the high-frequency noise modes are removed and the remaining modes are reconstructed to obtain the denoised spectrum. The proposed method was verified by two artificial noised signals and two Raman spectra of inorganic materials, i.e., MnCo ISAs/CN and Fe-NCNT. For comparison, empirical mode decomposition (EMD), Savitzky-Golay (SG) smoothing, and discrete wavelet transformation (DWT) are also investigated. At the same time, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was introduced as evaluation indicators to verify the performance of the proposed method. The results show that compared with EMD, VMD can significantly improve mode mixing and the endpoint effect. Moreover, the Raman spectrum by VMD denoising is more excellent than that of EMD, SG smoothing and DWT in terms of visualization and SNR. For the small sharp peaks, some information is lost after denoising by EMD, SG smoothing, DWT and VMD while VMD loses fewest information. Therefore, VMD may be an alternative method for Raman spectral denoising.

Abstract
Omics technologies have rapidly evolved with the unprecedented potential to shape precision medicine. Novel omics approaches are imperative toallow rapid and accurate data collection and integration with clinical information and enable a new era of healthcare. In this comprehensive review, we highlight the utility of Raman spectroscopy (RS) as an emerging omics technology for clinically relevant applications using clinically significant samples and models. We discuss the use of RS both as a label-free approach for probing the intrinsic metabolites of biological materials, and as a labeled approach where signal from Raman reporters conjugated to nanoparticles (NPs) serve as an indirect measure for tracking protein biomarkers in vivo and for high throughout proteomics. We summarize the use of machine learning algorithms for processing RS data to allow accurate detection and evaluation of treatment response specifically focusing on cancer, cardiac, gastrointestinal, and neurodegenerative diseases. We also highlight the integration of RS with established omics approaches for holistic diagnostic information. Further, we elaborate on metal-free NPs that leverage the biological Raman-silent region overcoming the challenges of traditional metal NPs. We conclude the review with an outlook on future directions that will ultimately allow the adaptation of RS as a clinical approach and revolutionize precision medicine.

Stimuli-responsive SERS biosensor for ultrasensitive tetracycline sensing using EDTA-driven PEI@CaCO 3 microcapsule and CS@FeMMs. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 226:115122. [PMID: 36796305 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
In this work, a stimuli-responsive SERS biosensor was fabricated for tetracycline (TTC) by "signal-on" strategy using (EDTA)-driven polyethyleneimine grafted calcium carbonate (PEI@CaCO3) microcapsule and chitosan-Fe magnetic microbeads (CS@FeMMs). Initially, aptamer conjugated magnetic-bead CS@FeMMs@Apt with superparamagnetism and excellent biocompatibility was employed as capture probe, which facilitated the rapid and easy magnetic separation. Subsequently, the PEI cross-linked layer and aptamer network layer were constructed onto the outer layer of CaCO3@4-ATP microcapsule to form sensing probes (PEI@CaCO3@4-ATP@Apt) via the layer-by-layer assembly method. In the presence of TTC, a sandwich SERS-assay was exploited by aptamer recognition induced target-bridged strategy. When the solution of EDTA was added, the core layer of CaCO3 would be dissolved quickly, destroying the microcapsule to release 4-ATP. The released 4-ATP could be quantitatively monitored by dripping the supernatant onto the AuNTs@PDMS SERS platform, resulting in a strong Raman "signal-on". Under the optimal conditions, a good linear relationship was established with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.9938 and a LOD of 0.03 ng/mL. Additionally, the application capacity of the biosensor to detect TTC was also affirmed in food matrixes, and the results were consistent with the standard ELISA method (P > 0.05). Hence, this SERS biosensor affords extensive application prospects for TTC detection with multiple merits such as high sensitivity, environment friendliness, and high stability.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer type worldwide. Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is an important subtype of breast cancer and results in an increased risk of recurrence and metastasis in patients. At present, immunohistochemistry (IHC) is used to detect the expression of HER2 in breast cancer tissues as the golden standard. However, IHC has some shortcomings, such as large subjective impact, long time consumption, expensive reagents, etc. In this paper, a combined morphological and spectroscopic diagnostic method based on label-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) for HER2 expression in breast cancer is proposed. It can not only quantitively detect HER2 expression in breast cancer tissues by spectroscopic measurements but also give morphological images reflecting the distribution of HER2 in tissues. The results show that the consistency between this method and IHC is 95% and achieves the annotation of tumor regions on tissue sections. This method is time-consuming, quantifiable, intuitive, scalable, and easy to understand. Combined with deep learning approaches, it is expected to promote the development of clinical detection and diagnosis technology for breast cancer and other cancers.

Abstract
Queuosine (Q) modification on tRNA plays an essential role in protein synthesis, participating in many tRNA functions such as folding, stability, and decoding. Appropriate analytical tools for the measurement of tRNA Q modifications are essential for the exploration of new roles of Q-modified tRNAs and the rationalization of their exact mechanisms. However, conventional methods for Q modification analysis suffer from apparent disadvantages, such as destructive cells, tedious procedure, and low sensitivity, which much hamper in-depth studies of Q modification-related biological questions. In this study, we developed a new approach called plasmonic affinity sandwich assay that allows for facile and sensitive determination of Q-modified tRNAs in single living cells. This method relies on the combination of plasmon-enhanced Raman scattering detection, base-paring affinity in-cell microextraction, and a set of boronate affinity and molecularly imprinted labeling nanotags for selective recognition of individual Q modifications, including queuosine, galactosyl queuosine (Gal-Q), and mannosyl queuosine (Man-Q). The developed method exhibited high affinity extraction and high specificity recognition. It allowed for the measurement of tRNA Q modifications in not only Q-rich cultured tumor cells but also Q-deficient primary tumor cells. Usefulness of this approach for investigation of the change of the Q modification level in single cells under oxidative stress was demonstrated. Because of its significant advantages over conventional methods, this approach provides a promising analytical tool for the exploration of more roles of Q-modified tRNAs and elucidation of their mechanisms.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) widely involves in intracellular and intercellular redox signaling pathways, playing a vital role in regulating various physiological events. Nevertheless, current analytical methods for the H2O2 assay are often hindered by relatively long response time, low sensitivity, or self-interference. Herein, a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8)-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor has been developed to detect H2O2 released from living cells by depositing ZIF-8 over SERS active gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) grafted with H2O2-responsive probe molecules, 2-mercaptohydroquinone. Combining the superior fingerprint identification of SERS and the highly efficient enrichment and selective response of H2O2 by ZIF, the ZIF-8-based SERS sensor exhibits a high anti-interference ability for H2O2 detection, with a limit of detection as low as 0.357 nM. Satisfyingly, owing to the enhanced catalytic activity derived from the successful integration of AuNPs and ZIF, the response time as short as 1 min can be obtained, demonstrating the effectiveness of the SERS sensor for rapid H2O2 detection. Furthermore, the developed SERS sensor enables real-time detection of H2O2 secreted from living cells under phorbol myristate acetate stimulation, as cells can be cultured on-chip. This study will pave the way toward the development of a metal-organic framework-based SERS platform for application in the fields of biosensing and early disease diagnosis associated with H2O2 secretion, thus exhibiting promising potential for future therapies.

Abstract
The development of a theragnostic platform integrating precise diagnosis and effective treatment is significant but still extremely challenging. Herein, an integrated smart nanodevice composed of Au@Cu2-xS@polydopamine nanoparticles (ACSPs) and fuel DNA-conjugated tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (fTDNs) was constructed, in which the ACSP nanoprobe played multiple key roles in antitumor therapy as well as in situ monitoring of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cancer cells. Regarding the analysis, the ACSP probe contained two optical properties: excellent surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement and high fluorescence (FL) quenching performance. Employing the ACSPs as the high-efficiency detection substrate combined with the fTDN-assisted DNA walking nanomachines as the superior amplification strategy, a SERS-FL dual-spectrum biosensor was constructed, which achieved an ultralow background signal and excellent sensitivity with detection limits of 0.11 pM and 4.95 aM by FL and SERS, respectively. Moreover, the rapid FL imaging and precise SERS quantitative detection for miRNA in cancer cells were also achieved by dual-signal ratio strategy, improving the accuracy of diagnosis. Regarding the therapeutic application, due to the high reactive oxygen species generation ability and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency, the ACSPs can also act as an all-in-one nanoagent for multimodal collaborative tumor therapy. Significantly, both in vivo and in vitro experiments confirmed its high biological safety and strong anticancer effect, indicating its promising theragnostic applications.
