Abstract
Fluid biopsy technology, characterized by its minimally invasive nature, speed, and continuity, has become a rapidly advancing and widely applied real-time diagnostic technique. Among various biomarkers, proteins represent the most abundant class of disease indicators. The sensitive and accurate detection of protein markers in bodily fluids is significantly influenced by the control exerted by recognition ligands. Aptamers, which are structurally dynamic functional oligonucleotides, exhibit high affinity, specific recognition of targets, and notable characteristics of high editability and modularity. These features make aptamer universal "recognition-capture" components, contribute to a significant leap in their applications within the biosensor domain. In this context, we provide a comprehensive review of the extensive application of aptamer-based biosensors in fluid biopsy. We systematically compile the characteristics and construction strategies of aptamer-based biosensors tailored for fluid biopsy, including aptamer sequences, affinity (KD), fluid background, sensing technologies, sensor construction strategies, incubation time, detection performance, and influencing factors. Furthermore, a comparative analysis of their advantages and disadvantages was conducted. In conclusion, we delineate and deliberate on prospective research trajectories and challenges that lie ahead in the realm of aptamer-based biosensors for fluid biopsy.

Abstract
Severe periodontitis affects nearly 1 billion individuals worldwide, highlighting the need for early diagnosis. Here, an integrated system consisting of a microfluidic chip and a portable point-of-care (POC) diagnostic device is developed using a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) chip fabrication and a three-dimensional printing technique, which is automatically controlled by a custom-designed smartphone application to routinely assess the presence of a specific periodontitis biomarker, odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein (ODAM). A sandwich-type fluorescence aptasensor is developed on a microfluidic chip, utilizing aptamer pair (MB@OD64 and OD35@FAM) selectively binding to target ODAM. Then this microfluidic chip is integrated into an automated Internet of Things (IoT)-based POC device, where fluorescence intensity, as a signal, from the secondary aptamer binding to ODAM in a sandwich-type binding reaction on the microfluidic chip is measured by a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) camera with a 488 nm light-emitting diode (LED) excitation source. Obtained signals are processed by a microprocessor and visualized on a wirelessly connected smartphone application. This integrated biosensor system allows the rapid and accurate detection of ODAM within 30 min with a remarkable limit of detection (LOD) of 0.011 nM under buffer conditions. Clinical application is demonstrated by successfully distinguishing between low-risk and high-risk individuals with 100 % specificity. A strong potential in the translation of this fluorescence-based microfluidic aptasensor integrated with an IoT-based POC system is expected to be employed for non-invasive, on-site, rapid, and accurate ODAM detection, facilitating periodontitis diagnosis.

Abstract
Limiting and preventing oral diseases remains a major challenge to the health of populations around the world, so finding ways to detect early-stage diseases (e.g., caries, periodontal disease, and oral cancer) and aiding in their prevention has always been an important clinical treatment concept. The development and application of electrochemical detection technology can provide important support for the early detection and non-invasive diagnosis of oral diseases and make up for the shortcomings of traditional diagnostic methods, which are highly sensitive, non-invasive, cost-effective, and less labor-intensive. It detects specific disease markers in body fluids through electrochemical reactions, discovers early warning signals of diseases, and realizes rapid and reliable diagnosis. This paper comprehensively summarizes the development and application of electrochemical biosensors in the detection and diagnosis of common oral diseases in terms of application platforms, sensing types, and disease detection, and discusses the challenges faced by electrochemical biosensors in the detection of oral diseases as well as the great prospects for future applications, in the hope of providing important insights for the future development of electrochemical biosensors for the early detection of oral diseases.

Abstract
Background: Research on the development of reliable diagnostic targets is being conducted to overcome the high prevalence and difficulty in managing periodontitis. However, despite the development of various periodontitis target markers, their practical application has been limited due to poor diagnostic accuracy. In this study, we present an improved periodontitis diagnostic target and explore its role in periodontitis. Methods: Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was collected from healthy individuals and periodontitis patients, and proteomic analysis was performed. The target marker levels for periodontitis were quantified in GCF samples by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) were used for the osteoclast formation assay. Results: LC-MS/MS analysis of whole GCF showed that the level of alpha-defensin 1 (DEFA-1) was higher in periodontitis GCF than in healthy GCF. The comparison of periodontitis target proteins galactin-10, ODAM, and azurocidin proposed in other studies found that the difference in DEFA-1 levels was the largest between healthy and periodontitis GCF, and periodontitis was more effectively distinguished. The differentiation of RANKL-induced BMMs into osteoclasts was significantly reduced by recombinant DEFA-1 (rDEFA-1). Conclusions: These results suggest the regulatory role of DEFA-1 in the periodontitis process and the relevance of DEFA-1 as a diagnostic target for periodontitis.

Abstract
Junctional epithelium (JE) is a vital epithelial component which forms an attachment to the tooth surface at the gingival sulcus by the adhesion of protein complexes from its basal layer. Disruption of the JE is associated with the development of gingivitis, periodontal disease, and alveolar bone loss. Odontogenic ameloblast-associated (ODAM) is comprised of a signal peptide and an ODAM protein with 12 putative glycosylation sites. It is expressed during odontogenesis by maturation stage ameloblasts and is incorporated into the enamel matrix during the formation of outer and surface layer enamel. ODAM, as a secreted protein which is accumulated at the interface between basal lamina and enamel, mediates the adhesion of the JE to the tooth surface; and is involved with extracellular signalling of WNT and ARHGEF5-RhoA, as well as intracellular signalling of BMP-2-BMPR-IB-ODAM. ODAM is also found to be highly expressed in salivary glands and appears to have implications for the regulation of formation, repair, and regeneration of the JE. Bioinformatics and research data have identified the anti-cancer properties of ODAM, indicating its potential both as a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target. Understanding the biology of ODAM will help to design therapeutic strategies for periodontal and dental disorders.

MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15041429.

Abstract
One of the strategies employed to increase the sensitivity of the fluorescence-based biosensors is to deposit chromophores on plasmonic metasurfaces which are periodic arrays of resonating nano-antennas that allow the control of the electromagnetic field leading to fluorescence enhancement. While artificially engineered metasurfaces realized by micro/nano-fabrication techniques lead to a precise tailoring of the excitation field and resonant cavity properties, the technological overhead, small areas, and high manufacturing cost renders them unsuitable for mass production. A method to circumvent these challenges is to use random distribution of metallic nanoparticles sustaining plasmonic resonances, which present the properties required to significantly enhance the fluorescence. We investigate metasurfaces composed of random aggregates of metal nanoparticles deposited on a silicon and glass substrates. The finite difference time domain simulations of the interaction of the incident electromagnetic wave with the structures reveals a significant enhancement of the excitation field, which is due to the resonant plasmonic modes sustained by the nanoparticles aggregates. We experimentally investigated the role of these structures in the fluorescent behaviour of Rhodamine 6G dispersed in polymethylmethacrylate finding an enhancement that is 423-fold. This suggests that nanoparticle aggregates have the potential to constitute a suitable platform for low-cost, mass-produced fluorescent biosensors.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are known to regulate tumorigenesis. In this study, circRNAs microarray was used to analyze the circRNA expression in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) tissues, and CircRNA zinc finger MYM-type containing 4(circZMYM4) was selected for further analysis. In this study, we detected circZMYM4 expression in LUAD specimens and cell lines using RT-PCR. The expression of circZMYM4 was further verified in the GEO datasets and TCGA datasets. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments were used to analyze the effects of circZMYM4 on LUAD in vivo and in vitro. The relationship between miR-587 and circZMYM4 or ODAM was predicted by bioinformatics tools and confirmed using dual-luciferase reporter assays and RNA-pull down. We found that circZMYM4 was distinctly down-regulated in LUAD tissues and cell lines. Functional assays revealed that circZMYM4 overexpression suppressed LUAD cell proliferation, metastasis and suppressed apoptosis, while miR-587 overexpression could weaken these effects. Importantly, circZMYM4 upregulated ODAM expression via sponging miR-587 to suppress LUAD progression. ODAM knockdown could reverse the repressive effect of circZMYM4 overexpression on cell proliferation, migration and invasion abilities. Overall, circZMYM4 regulates the miR-587/ODAM axis to suppress LUAD progression, which may become a potential biomarker and therapeutic target.

Abstract
The gingival seal around teeth prevents bacteria from destroying the tooth-supporting tissues and disseminating throughout the body. Porphyromonas gingivalis, a major periodontopathogen, degrades components of the specialized extracellular matrix that mediates attachment of the gingiva to the tooth. Of these, secretory calcium-binding phosphoprotein proline-glutamine rich 1 (SCPPPQ1) protein has a distinctive resistance to degradation, suggesting that it may offer resistance to bacterial attack. In silico analysis of its amino acid sequence was used to explore its molecular characteristics and to predict its two- and three-dimensional structure. SCPPPQ1 exhibits similarities with both proline-rich and cationic antimicrobial proteins, suggesting a putative antimicrobial potential. A combination of imaging approaches showed that incubation with 20 μM of purified SCPPPQ1 decrease bacterial number (p < 0.01). Fluorescence intensity decreased by 70% following a 2 h incubation of Porphyromonas gingivalis with the protein. Electron microscopy analyses revealed that SCPPPQ1 induced bacterial membrane disruption and breaches. While SCPPPQ1 has no effect on mammalian cells, our results suggest that it is bactericidal to Porphyromonas gingivalis, and that this protein, normally present in the gingival seal, may be exploited to maintain a healthy seal and prevent systemic dissemination of bacteria.

Abstract
Follicular dendritic cell-secreted protein (FDC-SP) is secreted protein expressed in follicular dendritic cells, periodontal ligament and junctional epithelium (JE). Its expression could be controlled during inflammatory process of gingiva; however, responsible mechanism for gingival overgrowth and involvement of FDC-SP in clinical condition is still unclear. We hypothesized that JE-specific genes are associated with the initiation of drug-induced gingival enlargement (DIGE) called gingival overgrowth, and investigated the changes of JE-specific gene's expression and their localization in overgrown gingiva from the patients. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the FDC-SP localization was spread in overgrown gingival tissues. FDC-SP mRNA levels in GE1 and Ca9-22 cells were increased by time-dependent nifedipine treatments, similar to other JE-specific genes, such as Amelotin (Amtn) and Lamininβ3 subunit (Lamβ3), whereas type 4 collagen (Col4) mRNA levels were decreased. Immunocytochemical analysis showed that FDC-SP, AMTN, and Lamβ3 protein levels were increased in GE1 and Ca9-22 cells. Transient transfection analyses were performed using luciferase constructs including various lengths of human FDC-SP gene promoter, nifedipine increased luciferase activities of -345 and -948FDC-SP constructs. These results raise the possibility that the nifedipine-induced FDC-SP may be related to the mechanism responsible for gingival overgrowth does not occur at edentulous jaw ridges.

Abstract
Infrared spectroscopy resolves the structure of molecules by detecting their characteristic vibrational fingerprints. Subwavelength light confinement and nanophotonic enhancement have extended the scope of this technique for monolayer studies. However, current approaches still require complex spectroscopic equipment or tunable light sources. Here, we introduce a novel metasurface-based method for detecting molecular absorption fingerprints over a broad spectrum, which combines the device-level simplicity of state-of-the-art angle-scanning refractometric sensors with the chemical specificity of infrared spectroscopy. Specifically, we develop germanium-based high-Q metasurfaces capable of delivering a multitude of spectrally selective and surface-sensitive resonances between 1100 and 1800 cm-1. We use this approach to detect distinct absorption signatures of different interacting analytes including proteins, aptamers, and polylysine. In combination with broadband incoherent illumination and detection, our method correlates the total reflectance signal at each incidence angle with the strength of the molecular absorption, enabling spectrometer-less operation in a compact angle-scanning configuration ideally suited for field-deployable applications.

Abstract
This research aims to develop biosensors which could diagnose periodontal diseases in early phases and predict the illness stage of patients, in order to give them adequate treatment timely. Human odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein (ODAM) is considered to be a potential biomarker for periodontal diseases, based on high correlation between the level of ODAM in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and the degree of periodontitis. Many aptamers, including a cognate pair of aptamers which can bind to the different sites of ODAM, were successfully screened in a very stringent condition employing saliva as a counter target through the graphene oxide-based systemic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (GO-SELEX). For the characterization of the aptamer candidates, GO-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (GO-FRET) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays were conducted. The sandwich-type binding of a cognate pair of aptamers to ODAM was additionally confirmed by employing circular dichroism (CD) and magnetic beads-based fluorescence imaging methods. The resulting cognate pair of aptamers, OD64 and OD35, were found to have their dissociation constant (Kd), 47.71 nM and 51.36 nM, respectively. The minimum detectable concentrations of a sandwich-type SPR biosensor were found to be 0.24 nM and 1.63 nM, respectively, for both buffered and saliva samples. Finally, using this cognate pair of aptamers, a sandwich-type lateral flow strip biosensor was successfully realized. This research shows the potential for implementation of a cognate pair of aptamers on point-of-care biosensors which enables simple, rapid, and non-invasive saliva-based diagnosis of periodontal-related diseases that can overcome current diagnostic methods and improve health care system.
