ABSTRACT
Exosomes have significant functions in intercellular communication, as well as in tumor migration and invasion. Nevertheless, the precise identification of exosomes poses a significant obstacle due to their low abundance in biofluids and potential disruption caused by free protein molecules, such as CD63 protein. In this study, we have developed a signal amplification method for precise detection of exosomes using a proximity ligation hybridization triggered structure-switching approach. The method involves the dual-recognition of exosomes by two probes an aptamer probe that recognizes the exosomal surface protein CD63 (L1 probe), and a cholesterol probe that targets the biolipid layer of the exosomes (L2 probe). Based on the dual-recognition of exosomes, we have successfully developed an accurate and sensitive approach that integrates the proximity ligation hybridization technique with a structure-switching based signal cycle. This approach allows for the simultaneous analysis of two biomarkers, enabling both quantification and tracing of exosomes without the need for enzymes. Eventually, the proposed method exhibits a wide detection range of 5 orders of magnitude and a low limit of detection of 36 particles per µL, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the fields of biological science, biomedical engineering, and personalized medicine.
