Abstract
Liquid biopsy is a non-invasive diagnostic method that can reduce the risk of complications and offers exceptional benefits in the dynamic monitoring and acquisition of heterogeneous cell population information. Optical nanomaterials with excellent light absorption, luminescence, and photoelectrochemical properties have accelerated the development of liquid biopsy technologies. Owing to the unique size effect of optical nanomaterials, their improved optical properties enable them to exhibit good sensitivity and specificity for mitigating signal interference from various molecules in body fluids. Nanomaterials with biocompatible and optical sensing properties play a crucial role in advancing the maturity and diversification of liquid biopsy technologies. This article offers a comprehensive review of recent advanced liquid biopsy technologies that utilize novel biocompatible optical nanomaterials, including fluorescence, colorimetric, photoelectrochemical, and Raman broad-spectrum-based biosensors. We focused on liquid biopsy for the most significant early biomarkers in clinical medicine, and specifically reviewed reports on the effectiveness of optical nanosensing technology in the detection of real patient samples, which may provide basic evidence for the transition of optical nanosensing technology from engineering design to clinical practice. Furthermore, we introduced the integration of optical nanosensing-based liquid biopsy with modern devices, such as smartphones, to demonstrate the potential of the technology in portable clinical diagnosis.

Liu S, Chen S, Tian L, He Q, Wang X, Lu F, Ning Y. A graphene-oxide-based fluorometric assay for norA gene transcription in MRSA using Nb.BbvCI-assisted target recycling and T7 exonuclease-triggered cascade dual recycling signal amplification. Talanta 2023; 259:124549. [PMID: 37062089 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.124549] [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: 10/28/2022] [Revised: 03/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 04/18/2023]
Abstract
We describe a graphene oxide (GO)-based bioassay for the fluorometric determination of norA gene transcription (mRNA) in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). This approach is based on Nb.BbvCI-assisted target recycling (NATR) and T7 exonuclease (T7 Exo)-triggered cascade dual-recycling signal amplification (TTCDRSA). The system included GO, a capture probe (CP), an assistant probe (AP), two carboxyfluorescein (FAM)-labeled hairpins (HP1 and HP2), endonuclease Nb.BbvcI, and exonuclease T7. In the presence of a target, AP, together with the target RNA, can hybridise with CP via partial complementarity to one another and open its hairpin structure to form a triple complex that is recognised by Nb.BbvCI. Once the CP is cleaved, the released AP and target RNA can walk on the carboxylated graphene oxide (CGO) surface to bind with another CP which induces the next round of cleavage, accumulating many trigger probes (TPs). The TPs then activate TTCDRSA with the assistance of T7 Exo, HP1, and HP2 to produce large amounts of free FAMs. These free FAMs are repelled by GO and exhibit enhanced fluorescence signals at excitation/emission wavelengths of 480/514 nm. The limit of detection (LOD) of the bioassay was calculated to be 0.37 fM, and the linear range of the method ranged from 1 fM to 1 nM. More importantly, the bioassay also exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for target RNA detection in real samples, which may open a new promising avenue for monitoring drug efflux and studying the mechanisms of drug actions.

Abstract
As two main types of liquid biopsy markers, both circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) play important roles in the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers. CTCs are malignant cells that detach from the original tumor tissue and enter the circulation of body fluids. sEVs are nanoscale vesicles secreted by normal cells or pathological cells. However, CTCs and sEVs in body fluids are scarce, leading to great difficulties in the accurate analysis of related diseases. For the sensitive detection of CTCs and sEVs in body fluids, various types of nucleic acid and nanomaterial-assisted signal amplification strategies have been developed. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in fluorescent detection of CTCs and sEVs in liquid biopsy based on nucleic acid and nanomaterial-assisted signal amplification strategies. We also discuss their advantages, challenges, and future prospects.
