Morphology and optical properties of Au-Ag hybrid nanoparticles regulation and its ultra-sensitive SERS immunoassay detection in carbohydrate antigen 19-9. Talanta 2024; 275:126131. [PMID: 38663064 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
The development of an ultra-sensitive detection method for carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) is very important for the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. In this work, we developed a new strategy to achieve a variety of Au-Ag hybrid nanoparticles from janus to core-satellite which is controlled by the volume of AgNO3 and the concentration of benzimidazolecarboxylic acid (MBIA). With the volume of AgNO3 increased, Au-Ag hybrid nanoparticles changed from janus to core-satellite and the characteristic absorption peak showed two opposite trends. The size and number of Ag islands were determined by the concentration of MBIA. Au-Ag core-satellites nanoparticles with a large number of small-sized Ag have the highest SERS intensity. Then we used them as SERS nanotags and Au-Polystyrene nanospheres modified by captured anti-CA19-9 antibody as solid substrates to realize the ultra-sensitive detection of CA19-9 with a low limit of detection of 1.25 × 10-6 IU/mL and a wide linear range of 1.00 × 10-5 -1.00 × 104 IU/mL. This work not only demonstrates that MBIA and AgNO3 were the key factors in the growth of Au-Ag hybrid nanoparticles from 2D to 3D structure but also supplies an ultra-sensitive detection method for CA19-9 which has a potential practicability in the clinical early diagnoses of pancreatic cancer.

Electrochemical bio- and chemosensors for cancer biomarkers: Natural (with antibodies) versus biomimicking artificial (with aptamers and molecularly imprinted polymers) recognition. Talanta 2024; 267:125259. [PMID: 37806110 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125259] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
Electrochemical (EC) bio- and chemosensors are highly promising for on-chip and point-of-care testing (POST) devices. They can make a breakthrough in early cancer diagnosis. Most current EC sensors for cancer biomarkers' detection and determination use natural antibodies as recognition units. However, those quickly lose their biorecognition ability upon exposure to harsh environments, comprising extreme pH, humidity, temperature, etc. So-called "plastic antibodies," including aptamers and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), are hypothesized to be a smart alternative to antibodies. They have attracted the interest of the sensor research community, offering a low cost-to-performance ratio with high stability, an essential advantage toward their commercialization. Herein, we critically review recent technological advances in devising and fabricating EC bio- and chemosensors for cancer biomarkers, classifying them according to the type of recognition unit used into three categories, i.e., antibody-, aptamer-, and MIP-based EC sensors for cancer biomarkers. Each sensor fabrication strategy has been discussed, from the devising concept to cancer sensing applications, including using different innovative nanomaterials and signal transduction strategies. Moreover, employing each recognition unit in the EC sensing of cancer biomarkers has been critically compared in detail to enlighten each recognition unit's advantages, effectiveness, and limitations.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 23:9693. [PMID: 38139539 PMCID: PMC10748090 DOI: 10.3390/s23249693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Evaluating the levels of the biomarker carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) is crucial in early cancer diagnosis and prognosis assessment. In this study, an antifouling electrochemical immunosensor was developed for the label-free detection of CA19-9, in which bovine serum albumin (BSA) and graphene were cross-linked with the aid of glutaraldehyde to form a 3D conductive porous network on the surface of an electrode. The electrochemical immunosensor was characterized through the use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), UV spectroscopy, and electrochemical methods. The level of CA19-9 was determined through the use of label-free electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The electron transfer at the interface of the electrode was well preserved in human serum samples, demonstrating that this electrochemical immunosensor has excellent antifouling performance. CA19-9 could be detected in a wide range from 13.5 U/mL to 1000 U/mL, with a detection limit of 13.5 U/mL in human serum samples. This immunosensor also exhibited good selectivity and stability. The detection results of this immunosensor were further validated and compared using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). All the results confirmed that this immunosensor has a good sensing performance in terms of CA19-9, suggesting its promising application prospects in clinical applications.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing is an emerging technological innovation for monitoring small substances/molecules in biological or non-biological systems. In particular, there has been a surge of interest in developing PEC devices for determining molecules of clinical significance. This is especially the case for molecules that are markers for serious and deadly medical conditions. The increased interest in PEC sensors to monitor such biomarkers can be attributed to the many apparent advantages of the PEC system, including an enhanced measurable signal, high potential for miniaturization, rapid testing, and low cost, amongst others. The growing number of published research reports on the subject calls for a comprehensive review of the various findings. This article is a review of studies on electrochemical (EC) and PEC sensors for ovarian cancer biomarkers in the last seven years (2016-2022). EC sensors were included because PEC is an improved EC; and a comparison of both systems has, expectedly, been carried out in many studies. Specific attention was given to the different markers of ovarian cancer and the EC/PEC sensing platforms developed for their detection/quantification. Relevant articles were sourced from the following databases: Scopus, PubMed Central, Web of Science, Science Direct, Academic Search Complete, EBSCO, CORE, Directory of open Access Journals (DOAJ), Public Library of Science (PLOS), BioMed Central (BMC), Semantic Scholar, Research Gate, SciELO, Wiley Online Library, Elsevier and SpringerLink.

Disposable label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on prussian blue nanocubes for four breast cancer tumor markers. Talanta 2023; 255:124229. [PMID: 36641867 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2022.124229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
A compact and low-cost multi-electrode array (MEA) is presented, comprising four working electrodes with shared reference and auxiliary electrodes. Prussian blue was electrodeposited on the MEA using chronoamperometry with a positive potential of 0.3 V. Prussian blue nanocubes (PBNCs) were formed, which were observed using scanning electron microscopy. The precision of the four working electrodes was demonstrated using ferric/ferro cyanide (RSD <5.8%). The surface roughness of the working electrodes of the fabricated MEA was investigated by atomic force microscopy and compared with that of a commercial MEA. The PBNCs were the platform for a label-free immunosensor that detected four breast cancer tumor markers (CEA, CA125, CA153, and CA199) using specific antibodies. The processes of antibody immobilization were investigated using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The immunosensor was evaluated using real human serum samples, yielding acceptable recoveries (95.1-104.1%, RSD < 3.9) for the four tumor markers. These findings confirmed that our label-free immunosensor based on PBNCs could be a promising device for point-of-care testing and could pave the way for the establishment of new platforms for the screening of various breast cancer tumor markers.

Electrochemical Immunoassay for Tumor Marker CA19-9 Detection Based on Self-Assembled Monolayer. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27144578.

Abstract
A CA19-9 electrochemical immunosensor was constructed using a hybrid self-assembled membrane modified with a gold electrode and applied to detect real samples. Hybrid self-assembled membranes were selected for electrode modification and used to detect antigens. First, the pretreated working electrodes were placed in a 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)/β-mercaptoethanol (ME) mixture for 24 h for self-assembly. The electrodes were then placed in an EDC/NHS mixture for 1 h. Layer modification was performed by stepwise dropwise addition of CA19-9 antibody, BSA, and antigen. Differential pulse voltammetry was used to characterize this immunosensor preparation process. The assembled electrochemical immunosensor enables linear detection in the concentration range of 0.05–500 U/mL of CA19-9, and the detection limit was calculated as 0.01 U/mL. The results of the specificity measurement test showed that the signal change of the interfering substance was much lower than the response value of the detected antigen, indicating that the sensor has good specificity and strong anti-interference ability. The repeatability test results showed that the relative standard deviations were less than 5%, showing good accuracy and precision. The CA19-9 electrochemical immunosensor was used for the actual sample detection, and the experimental results of the standard serum addition method showed that the RSD values of the test concentrations were all less than 10%. The recoveries were 102.4–115.0%, indicating that the assay has high precision, good accuracy, and high potential application value.

Abstract
As well-appreciated biomarkers, tumor markers have been spotlighted as reliable tools for predicting the behavior of different tumors and helping clinicians ascertain the type of molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis. The sensitivity and specificity of these markers have made them an object of even broader interest for sensitive detection and staging of various cancers. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), fluorescence-based, mass-based, and electrochemical-based detections are current techniques for sensing tumor markers. Although some of these techniques provide good selectivity, certain obstacles, including a low sample concentration or difficulty carrying out the measurement, limit their application. With the advent of nanotechnology, many studies have been carried out to synthesize and employ nanomaterials (NMs) in sensing techniques to determine these tumor markers at low concentrations. The fabrication, sensitivity, design, and multiplexing of sensing techniques have been uplifted due to the attractive features of NMs. Various NMs, such as magnetic and metal nanoparticles, up-conversion NPs, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon-based NMs, quantum dots (QDs), and graphene-based nanosensors, hyperbranched polymers, optical nanosensors, piezoelectric biosensors, paper-based biosensors, microfluidic-based lab-on-chip sensors, and hybrid NMs have proven effective in detecting tumor markers with great sensitivity and selectivity. This review summarizes various categories of NMs for detecting these valuable markers, such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), cancer antigen 125 (CA125), cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3, MUC1), and cancer antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and highlights recent nanotechnology-based advancements in detection of these prognostic biomarkers.

Abstract
A novel biosensing interface for tumor markers was designed based on the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of poly(isopropenylphenol) (PPPL) in situ initiated by the fixing of p-chloromethyl benzoic acid on the surface of amino-modified electrodes. It was found that the electrochemical activity of PPPL itself can provide sufficient signals for these biosensors, which can avoid signal leakage and streamline the interface modification process. Cu(II) ions absorbed on the carbon spheres and then were released via acid stimulation to act as a catalyst to participate in the interface polymerization with ATRP. As the concentration of targets increased, more Cu(II) ions were released, and the electrochemical signal of polymers was enhanced. Therefore, the sensitive detection of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) as a model target was achieved, with an ultralow limit of detection of 39 µU mL-1 and wide detection range from 100 µU mL-1 to 100 U mL-1 under optimal conditions. Furthermore, this method achieved satisfying performance in human blood serum with good inter-assay precision (RSD < 6%) and satisfactory recovery of ~ 99-105%. According to the results, this work is of great significance for constructing biosensor interfaces via in situ polymerization. A novel biosensing interface for tumor marker was designed based on atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), which poly(isopropenylphenol) with electrochemical signal was fabricated in situ on electrode.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, and early diagnosis will be of great significance to improve the survival quality and overall treatment outcome evaluation of patients. Nanoelectrochemical immunosensor is an emerging biosensor combining nanotechnology, electrochemical analysis method and immunological technology, which has simple operation, fast analysis speed, high sensitivity, and good selectivity. This mini-review summarized immunoassay techniques, nanotechnology and electrochemical sensing for the early detection of gastric cancer. In particular, we focus on the tension of carbon nanomaterials in this field, including the functionalized preparation of materials, signal enhancement and the construction of novel sensing interfaces. Currently, various tumor markers are being developed, but the more recognized gastric cancer tumor markers are carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA), CD44V9, miRNAs, and programmed death ligand 1. Among them, the electrochemical immunosensor allows the detection of CEA, CA, and miRNAs. The mini-review focused on the development of using carbon based materials, especially carbon nanotubes and graphene for immunosensor fabrication and gastric cancer markers detection.

Abstract
A new electrochemical immunosensor is developed for the label-free simultaneous detection of mucin1 (MUC1), cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) early breast cancer biomarkers. The biosensor is simply designed using the deposition of three different systems of redox species-antibody-conjugated polyethylenimine coated-gold nanoparticles (PEI-AuNPs), for the first time. The screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) comprising a three-working electrode array is modified with the conjugated PEI-AuNPs. Multiplex sensing is performed by utilizing the distinguishable electrochemical responses of the redox-active species; anthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid (AQ), thionine chloride (TH), and AgNO3 (Ag+) on the PEI-AuNPs conjugates for the detection of MUC1, CA15-3, and HER2, respectively. The single-run determination of the biomarkers by the proposed immunosensor is carried out by measuring the decrease (%) in the oxidation peak currents due to the formation of three kinds of antibody-antigen complexes. The decreased currents are logarithmically proportional to the antigen concentrations in the ranges of 0.10-100 U mL-1 CA15-3 and 0.10-100 ng mL-1 MUC1 and HER2 with detection limits of 0.21 U mL-1, 0.53 ng mL-1 and 0.50 ng mL-1, respectively, which are significantly lower than the clinically relevant cut-off levels. The sensor reveals high selectivity and satisfactory reproducibility. After storing for two weeks, the sensor retains the responses with ca. 90% of the initial currents. The immunosensor is successfully applied to detect three tumor markers in human serum and can provide a new technological platform for the development of low-cost, highly stable, sensitive, selective, and point-of-care (POC) diagnosis.

Abstract
Nanocomposites of the binary transition metal sulfide Zn-Co-S/graphene (Zn-Co-S@G) were synthesized through a one-step hydrothermal method. They may be useful in the construction of an electrochemical immunosensor for carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) detection. Zn-Co-S dot-like nanoparticles uniformly covered the surface of graphene to form an interconnected conductive network, ensuring strong interaction between transition metal sulfide and graphene, which can expose numerous electroactive sites leading to the improvement of the amplified electrochemical signal toward a direct reduction of H2O2. Thus, the construction of an electrochemical immunosensor using Zn-Co-S@G nanocomposites showed outstanding sensing properties for detecting CA19-9. The constructed electrochemical immunosensor exhibited a good linear relationship in the range of 6.3 U·mL-1-300 U·mL-1, with the limit of detection at 0.82 U·mL-1, which makes it a promising candidate for an electrochemical immunosensor.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide due to its aggressiveness and the challenge to early diagnosis and treatment. In recent decades, nanomaterials have received increasing attention for diagnosis and therapy of PDAC. However, these designs are mainly focused on the macroscopic tumor therapeutic effect, while the crucial nano-bio interactions in the heterogeneous microenvironment of PDAC remain poorly understood. As a result, the majority of potent nanomedicines show limited performance in ameliorating PDAC in clinical translation. Therefore, exploiting the unique nature of the PDAC by detecting potential biomarkers together with a deep understanding of nano-bio interactions that occur in the tumor microenvironment is pivotal to the design of PDAC-tailored effective nanomedicine. This review will introduce tailor-made nanomaterials-enabled laboratory tests and advanced noninvasive imaging technologies for early and accurate diagnosis of PDAC. Moreover, the fabrication of a myriad of tailor-made nanomaterials for various PDAC therapeutic modalities will be reviewed. Furthermore, much preferred theranostic multifunctional nanomaterials for imaging-guided therapies of PDAC will be elaborated. Lastly, the prospects of these nanomaterials in terms of clinical translation and potential breakthroughs will be briefly discussed.

Abstract
Here, straight upward Au nanowires (NWs) were successfully grown onto Fe3O4@TiO2 matrix through a seed-mediated strategy to intensively improve its photocatalysis and SERS performances, facilitating a peculiar recyclable surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-based immunoassay of CA19-9 in liquid form based on visible light irradiation. Such immunoassay was also supported by a smart heterobifunctional cross-linking agent-mediated probe of anti-CA19-9/4-MBA without metal nanoparticles. A low limit of detection of 5.65 × 10-4 IUmL-1 and a wide linear range from 1000 to 0.001 IUmL-1 were demonstrated through repeated constructing the sandwich immunostructure with only one batch of nanocomposites. Moreover, the actual levels of CA19-9 for colorectal cancer patients were readily measured by the recyclable immunoassay, the results of which are principally consistent with the conventional CLIA detection. Thus, such a green strategy of visible light-induced recyclable immunoassay could be expected to have a potential practicability in the clinical diagnoses of cancer.

Abstract
Electrochemical immunosensors are affinity-based biosensors characterized by several useful features such as specificity, miniaturizability, low cost and simplicity, making them very interesting for many applications in several scientific fields. One of the significant issues in the design of electrochemical immunosensors is to increase the system’s sensitivity. Different strategies have been developed, one of the most common is the use of nanostructured materials as electrode materials, nanocarriers, electroactive or electrocatalytic nanotracers because of their abilities in signal amplification and biocompatibility. In this review, we will consider some of the most used nanostructures employed in the development of electrochemical immunosensors (e.g., metallic nanoparticles, graphene, carbon nanotubes) and many other still uncommon nanomaterials. Furthermore, their diagnostic applications in the last decade will be discussed, referring to two relevant issues of present-day: the detection of tumor markers and viruses.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most widespread challenges and important diseases, which has the highest mortality rate. Lung cancer is the most common type of cancer, so that about 25% of all cancer deaths are related to the lung cancer. The lung cancer is classified as two different types with different treatment methodology: the small cell lung carcinoma and nonsmall cell lung carcinoma are two categories of the lung cancer. Since the lung cancer is often in the latent period in its early stages, therefore, early diagnosis of lung cancer has many challenges. Hence, there is a need for sensitive and reliable tools for preclinical diagnosis of lung cancer. Therefore, many detection methods have been employed for early detection of lung cancer. As lung cancer tumors growth in the body, the cancerous cells release numerous DNA, proteins, and metabolites as special biomarkers of the lung cancer. The levels of these biomarkers show the stages of the lung cancer. Therefore, detection of the biomarkers can be used for screening and clinical diagnosis of the lung cancer. There are numerous biomarkers for the lung cancer such as EGFR, CEA, CYFRA 21-1, ENO1, NSE, CA 19-9, CA 125 and VEGF. Nowadays, electrochemical methods are very attractive and useful in the lung cancer detections. So, in this paper, the recent advances and improvements (2010-2018) in the electrochemical detection of the lung cancer biomarkers have been reviewed.

Abstract
The clinical detection of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), a tumor marker in biological samples, improves and facilitates the rapid screening and diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. A simple, low cost, fast, and green synthesis method to prepare a viable carbon quantum dots/gold (CQDs/Au) nanocomposite fluorescence immunosensing solution for the detection of CA 19-9 was reported. The present method is conducted by preparing glucose-derived CQDs using a microwave-assisted method. CQDs were employed as reducing and stabilizing agents for the preparation of a CQDs/Au nanocomposite. The immobilized anti-CA 19-9-labeled horseradish peroxidase enzyme (Ab-HRP) was anchored to the surface of a CQDs/Au nanocomposite by a peptide interaction between the carboxylic and amine active groups. The CA 19-9 antigen was trapped by another monoclonal antibody that was coated on the surface of microtiter wells. The formed sandwich capping antibody-antigen-antibody enzyme complex had tunable fluorescence properties that were detected under excitation and emission wavelengths of 420 and 530 nm. The increase in fluorescence intensities of the immunoassay sensing solution was proportional to the CA 19-9 antigen concentration in the linear range of 0.01-350 U mL-1 and had a lower detection limit of 0.007 U mL-1. The proposed CQDs/Au nanocomposite immunoassay method provides a promising tool for detecting CA 19-9 in human serum.

Abstract
We report the fabrication of immunosensors based on nanostructured mats of electrospun nanofibers of polyamide 6 and poly(allylamine hydrochloride) coated either with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) or gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), whose three-dimensional structure was suitable for the immobilization of anti-CA19-9 antibodies to detect the pancreatic cancer biomarker CA19-9. Using impedance spectroscopy, the sensing platform was able to detect CA19-9 with a detection limit of 1.84 and 1.57 U mL-1 for the nanostructured architectures containing MWCNTs and AuNPs, respectively. The high sensitivity achieved can be attributed to the irreversible adsorption between antibodies and antigens, as confirmed with polarization-modulated infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy. The adsorption mechanism was typical Langmuir-Freundlich processes. The high sensitivity and selectivity of the immunosensors were also explored in tests with blood serum from patients with distinct concentrations of CA19-9, for which the impedance spectra data were processed with a multidimensional projection technique. The robustness of the immunosensors in dealing with patient samples without suffering interference from analytes present in biological fluids is promising for a simple, effective diagnosis of pancreatic cancer at early stages.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of lung cancer helps to reduce the cancer death rate significantly. Over the years, investigators worldwide have extensively investigated many screening modalities for lung cancer detection, including computerized tomography, chest X-ray, positron emission tomography, sputum cytology, magnetic resonance imaging and biopsy. However, these techniques are not suitable for patients with other pathologies. Developing a rapid and sensitive technique for early diagnosis of lung cancer is urgently needed. Biosensor-based techniques have been recently recommended as a rapid and cost-effective tool for early diagnosis of lung tumor markers. This paper reviews the recent development in screening and biosensor-based techniques for early lung cancer detection.
