Tripedal DNA Walker as a Signal Amplifier Combined with a Potential-Resolved Multicolor Electrochemiluminescence Strategy for Ultrasensitive Detection of Prostate Cancer Staging Indicators.

A multicolor electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor based on a closed bipolar electrode (BPE) array was proposed for the rapid and intuitive analysis of three prostate cancer staging indicators. First, [Irpic-OMe], [Ir(ppy)2(acac)], and [Ru(bpy)3]2+ were applied as blue, green, and red ECL emitters, respectively, whose mixed ECL emission colors covered the whole visible region by varying the applied voltages. Afterward, we designed a simple Mg2+-dependent DNAzyme (MNAzyme)-driven tripedal DNA walker (TD walker) to release three output DNAs. Immediately after, three output DNAs were added to the cathodic reservoirs of the BPE for incubation. After that, we found that the emission colors from the anode of the BPE changed as a driving voltage of 8.0 V was applied, mainly due to changes in the interfacial potential and faradaic currents at the two poles of the BPE. Via optimization of the experimental parameters, cutoff values of such three indicators at different clinical stages could be identified instantly with the naked eye, and standard precision swatches with multiple indicators could be prepared. Finally, in order to precisely determine the prostate cancer stage, the multicolor ECL device was used for clinical analysis, and the resulting images were then compared with standard swatches, laying the way for accurate prostate cancer therapy.

Strong aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence of pyrene-coordination metal-organic frameworks coupled with zero-valent iron as novel accelerator for ultrasensitive immunoassay.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are excellent alternative luminophores for electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunoassays. However, they are inevitably limited by the aggregation-caused quenching effect. In this study, aimed at eliminating the aggregation quenching of PAHs, luminescent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with 1,3,6,8-tetra(4-carboxybenzene)pyrene (H4TBAPy) as the ligand were exploited as a novel nano-emitter for the construction of ECL immunoassays. The luminophore exhibits efficient aggregation-induced emission enhancement, good acid-base resistance property and unusual ECL reactivity. In addition, the simultaneous use of potassium persulfate and hydrogen peroxide as dual co-reactants resulted in a synergistic enhancement of the cathodic ECL efficiency. The use of magnetic iron-nickel alloys as the multifunctional sensing platform can further enhance the ECL activity, and its enriched zero-valent iron as a co-reactant accelerator effectively drives ECL analytical performance. Profiting from the excellent characteristics, signal-on ECL immunoassays have been constructed. With carcinoembryonic antigen as the model analysis target, a detection limit of 0.63 pg/mL was obtained within the linear range of 1 pg/mL to 50 ng/mL, accompanied by excellent analytical performance. This report opens a new window for the rational design of efficient ECL illuminators, and the proposed ECL immunoassays may find promising applications in the detection of disease markers.

Construction of an autofluorescence interference-free phosphorescence biosensor for the specific detection of TK1 mRNA.

The anti-interference ability of biosensors is critical for detection in biological samples. Fluorescence-based sensors are subject to interference from self-luminescent substances in biological matrices. Therefore, phosphorescent sensors stand out among biosensors due to their lack of self-luminescence background. In this study, a phosphorescent sensor was constructed, which can accurately detect thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) mRNA in biological samples and avoid autofluorescence interference. When there is no target, polydopamine (PDA) is used as the phosphorescence resonance energy transfer (PRET) acceptor to quench the phosphorescence of the persistently luminescent (PL) nanomaterial. When there is a target, the DNA modified by the PL nanomaterial is replaced by the hairpin H and removed away from the PDA, resulting in a rebound in phosphorescence. The phosphorescent sensor exhibits a good linear relationship in the TK1 mRNA concentration range of 0-200 nM, and the detection limit was 1.74 nM. The sensor fabricated in this study can effectively avoid interference from spontaneous fluorescence in complex biological samples, and sensitively and precisely detect TK1 mRNA in serum samples, providing a powerful tool to more accurately detect biomarkers in biological samples.

Luminescence-Based Techniques for KRAS Thermal Stability Monitoring.

Various biochemical methods have been introduced to detect and characterize KRAS activity and interactions, from which the vast majority is based on luminescence detection in its varying forms. Among these methods, thermal stability assays, using luminophore-conjugated proteins or external environment sensing dyes, are widely used. In this chapter, we describe methods enabling KRAS stability monitoring in vitro, with an emphasis on ligand-induced stability. This chapter focuses mainly on luminescence-based techniques utilizing external dye molecules and fluorescence detection.

Studying RAS Interactions in Live Cells with BRET.

Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a valuable technique for studying protein-protein interactions (PPIs) within live cells (Pfleger and Eidne, Nat Methods 3:165-174, 2006). Among the various BRET methodologies, a recent addition called NanoBRET has emerged, leveraging advancements in donor and acceptor technologies (Machleidt and Woodroofe, ACS Chem Biol 10:1797-1804, 2015). In this study, we present a developed methodology designed to measure PPIs involving the RAS protein family and their effectors and interactors at the plasma membrane. By utilizing the NanoLuc and HaloTag BRET pair, we provide evidence of a saturable interaction between KRAS4b-G12D and full-length RAF1. Conversely, the RAF1 R89L mutant, known to impede RAF1 binding to active RAS, exhibits nonspecific interactions. The assay exhibits remarkable signal-to-background ratios and is highly suitable for investigating the interactions of RAS with effectors, as well as for high-throughput screening assays.

Coreactant-free aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence system based on the novel zinc-luminol metal-organic gel for ultrasensitive detection of PiRNA-823.

Aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) technology has aroused widespread interest due to the significant improve in ECL response by solving the problems of aggregation-caused quenching and poor water solubility of the luminophore. However, the existing AIECL emitters still suffer from low ECL efficiency, additional coreactants and complex synthesis steps, which greatly limit their applications. Herein, luminol, as a kind of AIE molecule, was assembled with Zn2+ nodes to obtain a novel microflower-like Zinc-luminol metal-organic gel (Zn-MOG) by one-step method. In the light of the strong affinity of N atoms in luminol ligand to Zn2+, Zn-MOG with vigorous viscosity and stability can be formed immediately after vortex oscillation, overcoming the main difficulties of the complicated synthesis steps and poor film-forming performance encountered in current AIECL materials. Impressively, an AIECL resonance energy transfer (RET) biosensor was constructed using Zn-MOG as a donor and Alexa Fluor 430 as an acceptor in combination with DNA-Fuel-driven target recycling amplification for the ultrasensitive detection of PiRNA-823. The fabricated biosensor exhibited a wide linear relationship in the range of 100 aM to 100 pM and a detection limit as low as 60.0 aM. This work is the first to realize the construction of ECL emitters using the AIE effect of luminol, which provides inspiration for the design of AIECL systems without adding coreactants.

A novel self-enhanced ECL-RET aptasensor based on the bimetallic MOFs with homogeneous catalytic sites for kanamycin detection.

The inappropriate use of antibiotics undoubtedly poses a potential threat to public health, creating an increasing need to develop highly sensitive tests. In this study, we designed a new type of porphyrin metal-organic frameworks (Fe TCPP(Zn) MOFs) with homogeneous catalytic sites. The ferric-based metal ligands of Fe TCPP(Zn) MOFs acted as co-reaction accelerators, which effectively improved the conversion efficiency of H2O2 on the surface of MOFs, then increased the concentration of •OH surrounding porphyrin molecules to achieve self-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL). Based on this, an aptasensor for the specific detection of kanamycin (KAN) in food and environmental water samples was constructed in combination with resonance energy transform (RET), in which Fe TCPP(Zn) MOFs were used as luminescence donor and AuNPs were used as acceptor. Under the best conditions, there was a good linear relationship between the ECL intensity and the logarithm of KAN concentration with a detection limit of 0.28 fM in the range of 1.0 × 10-7-1.0 × 10-13 M, demonstrating satisfactory selectivity and stability. At the same time, the complexity of the detection environment was reduced, which further realized the reliable analysis of KAN in milk, honey and pond water. Overall, this innovative self-enhanced ECL strategy provides a novel approach for constructing efficient ECL systems in MOFs, and also extends the application of MOFs to the analysis and detection of trace antibiotics in food and the environment.

Label-free and portable detection of HIV-DNA by a handheld luminometer.

BACKGROUND: The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a major worldwide health problem. Nowadays, many methods have been developed for quantitative detecting human immunodeficiency virus DNA (HIV-DNA), such as fluorescence and colorimetry. However, these methods still have the disadvantages of being expensive and requiring professional technicians. Early diagnosis of pathogens is increasingly dependent on portable instruments and simple point-of-care testing (POCT). Therefore, it is meaningful and necessary to develop portable and cheap methods for detecting disease markers. RESULTS: In this work, a label-free chemiluminescence (CL) method was developed for detecting HIV-DNA via a handheld luminometer. To achieve label-free target detection, the CL catalyst, G-triplex-hemin DNAzyme (G3-hemin DNAzyme), was in-situ assembled in the presence of HIV-DNA. For improving sensitivity, HIV-DNA induced the cyclic strand displacement reaction (SDR), which can form three G3-hemin DNAzymes in one cycle. So, the chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and H2O2 was highly effectively catalyzed, and the CL intensity was linearly related with the concentration of HIV-DNA in the range of 0.05-10 nM with a detection limit of 29.0 pM. Due to the high specificity of hairpin DNA, single-base mismatch can be discriminated, which ensured the specific detection of HIV-DNA. SIGNIFICANCE: In-situ formation of G3-hemin DNAzyme led to label-free and selective detection without complex synthesis and functionalization. Therefore, it offers a cheap, selective, sensitive and portable method for detecting disease-related genes, which is promising for POCT of clinical diagnosis in resource-limited settings.

Confined DNA tetrahedral molecular sieve for size-selective electrochemiluminescence sensing.

Size selectivity is crucial in highly accurate preparation of biosensors. Herein, we described an innovative electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing platform based on the confined DNA tetrahedral molecular sieve (DTMS) for size-selective recognition of nucleic acids and small biological molecule. Firstly, DNA template (T) was encapsulated into the inner cavity of DNA tetrahedral scaffold (DTS) and hybridized with quencher (Fc) labeled probe DNA to prepare DTMS, accordingly inducing Ru(bpy)32+ and Fc closely proximate, resulting the sensor in a "signal-off" state. Afterwards, target molecules entered the cavity of DTMS to realize the size-selective molecular recognition while prohibiting large molecules outside of the DTMS, resulting the sensor in a "signal-on" state due to the release of Fc. The rigid framework structure of DTS and the anchor of DNA probe inside the DTS effectively avoided the nuclease degradation of DNA probe, and nonspecific protein adsorption, making the sensor possess potential application prospect for size-selective molecular recognition in diagnostic analysis with high accuracy and specificity.

Strong cathode electroluminescence biosensor based on CeO2 functionalized PCN-222@Ag NPs for sensitive detection of p-Tau-181 protein.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensors provide a convenient and high sensitivity method for early disease diagnosis. However, creating luminophore arrays relying on powerful ECL signals remains a daunting task. Porphyrin-centered metal organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit remarkable potential in ECL sensing applications. In this paper, based on a simple one-pot synthesis method, PCN-222@Ag NPs doped with CeO2 was synthesized to enhance the ECL performance. Due to the strong catalytic ability of CeO2, the ECL signal strength of the new material PCN-222@CeO2@Ag NPs is much higher than that of the PCN-222@Ag NPs and PCN-222. The luminous properties of PCN-222@CeO2@Ag NPs become more intense and stable due to the excellent electronic conductivity of Ag NPs. Based on the fact that CuS@PDA composite can quench the ECL signal of PCN-222@CeO2@Ag NPs, we constructed a novel sandwich ECL immune sensor for the detection of phosphorylated Tau 181 (p-Tau-181) protein. The ECL sensor has a great linear relationship with p-Tau-181 protein concentration, ranging from 1 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL. The detection limit is as low as 0.147 pg/mL. This work provides new ideas for developing sensitive ECL sensors for the p-Tau-181 protein, the marker of Alzheimer's disease.

Cloning and characterization of luciferase from an Asian firefly Pygoluciola qingyu and its comparison with other beetle luciferases.

The bioluminescence system of luminescent beetles has extensive applications in biological imaging, protein labeling and drug screening. To explore wild luciferases with excellent catalytic activity and thermal stability, we cloned the luciferase of Pygoluciola qingyu, one species living in areas of high temperature and with strong bioluminescence, by combining transcriptomic sequencing and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The total length of luciferase gene is 1638 bp and the luciferase consists 544 amino acids. The recombinant P. qingyu luciferase was produced in vitro and its characteristics were compared with those of eight luciferases from China firefly species and two commercial luciferases. Compared with these luciferases, the P. qingyu luciferase shows the highest luminescence activity at room temperature (about 25-28 â„ƒ) with similar KM value for D-luciferin and ATP to the Photinus pyralis luciferase. The P. qingyu luciferase activity was highest at 35 â„ƒ and can keep high activity at 30-40 â„ƒ, which suggests the potential of P. qingyu luciferase for in vivo and cell application. Our results provide new insights into P. qingyu luciferase and give a new resource for the application of luciferases.

Nanocluster/metal-organic framework nanosheet-based confined ECL enhancement biosensor for the extracellular vesicle detection.

Gastric cancer (GC) was one of the most common cancers with high mortality. The detection of GC peritoneal metastasis had important significance. In this work, we have developed the novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor to detect microRNA in GC extracellular vesicle (EV). Firstly, in situ growth of Cu nanocluster (Cu NC) on the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) nanosheet was achieved successfully. Due to the confinement effect, Cu NCs in the porous structure of Zn MOF possessed the high quantum yield and good stability. Meanwhile, Zn MOF provided good electrochemical activity for the ECL reaction. Furthermore, the nanosized MOFs did not only act as sensing platform to load Cu NCs and link biomolecules, but also reduce steric hindrance effect for biomolecular recognition. Additionally, Au NPs/MXene and phospholipid layer were prepared and modified on the electrode, which can regulate electron transfer and improve the target recognition efficiency. The Cu NCs/Zn MOF nanosheet-based ECL sensor was employed to detect miRNA-421 from 1 fM to 1 nM with a detection limit of 0.5 fM. Finally, extracellular vesicles form clinic GC patient ascites were extracted and analyzed. The results showed that the constructed biosensor can be used for the GC peritoneal metastasis diagnosis.

Polymerized carbon dots with high electrochemiluminescence efficiency and long wavelength ECL emission for ultrasensitive detection of MicroRNA-222.

Herein, a new electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was constructed with highly efficient polymerized carbon dots (PCDs) as ECL emitter and the improved localized catalytic hairpin assembly (L-CHA) as signal amplifier for ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-222 (miRNA-222). Impressively, compared to the traditional carbon dots with inefficient blue region ECL emission, PCDs with N, O co-dope and large conjugated π-system showed high electrical conductivity, narrow band gap and strong radiative transition, which could exhibit high ECL efficiency to improve the sensitivity of detection and long wavelength ECL emission to achieve deep tissue penetration for reducing biological damage. Furthermore, the trace target miRNA-222 could be efficiently converted into large amounts of output DNA labelled with the quencher dopamine (S-DA) through the L-CHA reaction to significantly enhance the target amplification efficiency for further improving the sensitivity of detection. Thus, the ECL biosensor could achieve the ultrasensitive detection of miRNA-222 from 100 aM to 100 pM with the detection limit of 76 aM. Therefore, this work proposed a novel CDs with high ECL efficiency and long wavelength ECL emission, which not only was used to build an ultrasensitive biosensor for biomolecules detection in clinical diagnosis, but also served as a potential emitter for ECL bioimaging.

Oxygen imaging of hypoxic pockets in the mouse cerebral cortex.

Consciousness is lost within seconds upon cessation of cerebral blood flow. The brain cannot store oxygen, and interruption of oxidative phosphorylation is fatal within minutes. Yet only rudimentary knowledge exists regarding cortical partial oxygen tension (Po2) dynamics under physiological conditions. Here we introduce Green enhanced Nano-lantern (GeNL), a genetically encoded bioluminescent oxygen indicator for Po2 imaging. In awake behaving mice, we uncover the existence of spontaneous, spatially defined "hypoxic pockets" and demonstrate their linkage to the abrogation of local capillary flow. Exercise reduced the burden of hypoxic pockets by 52% compared with rest. The study provides insight into cortical oxygen dynamics in awake behaving animals and concurrently establishes a tool to delineate the importance of oxygen tension in physiological processes and neurological diseases.

A spatial-potential resolved bipolar electrode electrochemiluminescence biosensor based on polarity conversion for dual-mode detection of miRNA-122 and CEA.

In this work, a spatial-potential resolved bipolar electrode electrochemiluminescence (BPE-ECL) biosensor based on polarity conversion strategy and CuHCF electrocatalyst was constructed for dual-mode detection of miRNA-122 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). ECL technology was firstly used to systematically study the polarity conversion of BPE. It was found that changing the polarity of the driving voltage would cause the polarity change of BPE, and led to the change of the luminescent position of Ru(bpy)32+. As a "proof-of-concept application", we developed a shielded dual-channel BPE-ECL biosensor for dual-mode detection of miRNA-122 and CEA. In order to further improve the detection sensitivity, a non-precious metal electrocatalyst CuHCF with outstanding electrocatalytic reduction activity of H2O2 was firstly introduced to the BPE-ECL biosensor for signal amplification, which could generate high faradaic current under the excitation of negative potential. Based on the charge neutrality principle of BPE, the enhancement of the faradaic current resulted in the ECL signal amplification of Ru(bpy)32+. The targets in the sensing grooves caused the introduction or fall off of CuHCF, which led to the ECL signal change of Ru(bpy)32+ in the signal grooves, and realized the dual-mode detection of miRNA-122 and CEA. This work provided a deeper understanding of the polarity change of BPE. Furthermore, the introduction of non-precious metal electrocatalyst had broadened the application range of BPE-ECL sensors.

MitoLuc: A Luminescence-Based Assay to Study Real-Time Protein Import into Mitochondria.

All but a few mitochondrial proteins are translated into the cytosol and imported in via complicated and varied pathways. These processes occur over short time frames and, as such, are difficult to monitor with classical approaches such as Western blotting or autoradiography that require sample collection at discrete time points. The development of an assay based on a split version of the small luciferase-Mitoluc-has allowed us to monitor the import of proteins into mitochondria in high resolution and real time (Pereira et al., J Mol Biol 431:1689-1699, 2019). Luminescence measurements are acquired using a plate reader in the order of seconds. This allows scores of experiments to be conducted in parallel in a single multi-well plate and permits kinetic analysis yielding information about import mechanisms (Ford et al., Elife 11:e75426, 2022).

A triple read-out visible biosensing platform based on multifunctional nanozyme and bipolar electrode for multi-mode detection and imaging of CEA.

In this paper, a proposal of closed bipolar electrode (BPE) and nanozyme based multi-mode biosensing platform is first presented. As a novel integrated chip, multi-mode-BPE (MMBPE) combines enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA), electrochemiluminescence (ECL), ECL imaging and light emitting diode (LED) imaging, enabling highly sensitive triple read-out visible detection of cancer embryonic antigen (CEA). The ECL probe Ab2@Au@Co3O4/CoFe2O4 hollow nanocubes (HNCs) with excellent peroxidase (POD) activity is introduced into the BPE cathode through immune adsorption. The Au@Co3O4/CoFe2O4 HNCs can increase the rate of hydrogen peroxide oxidation of TMB, thus promoting the reaction, and can be used for ELISA detection of CEA at different concentrations. The modification of the BPE sensing interface and reporting interface involved the introduction of the luminescent reagent Ru(bpy)32+ to the BPE anode. The decomposition rate of H2O2 increased under the catalytic action of Au@Co3O4/CoFe2O4 HNCs nanozyme, leading to an accelerated electron transfer rate in the MMBPE system and an enhanced ECL signal from Ru(bpy)32+. The LED imaging technology further provides a convenient and visible approach for CEA imaging in which no additional chemicals are needed. The integration of nanoenzymes as the catalytic core in MMBPE system provides impetus, while the combination of nanozymes with BPE expands the application of nanoenzymes in the field of biological analysis. The integration of intelligent chips with multiple modes of detection shows portable, miniaturized, and integrated excellent properties which meets the requirements of modern detection devices and thus offers a flexible approach for determination of nucleic acids, proteins, and cells.

Bioluminescence of (R)-Cypridina Luciferin with Cypridina Luciferase.

Cypridina luciferin (CypL) is a marine natural product that functions as the luminous substrate for the enzyme Cypridina luciferase (CypLase). CypL has two enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-CypL, due to its one chiral center at the sec-butyl moiety. Previous studies reported that (S)-CypL or racemic CypL with CypLase produced light, but the luminescence of (R)-CypL with CypLase has not been investigated. Here, we examined the luminescence of (R)-CypL, which had undergone chiral separation from the enantiomeric mixture, with a recombinant CypLase. Our luminescence measurements demonstrated that (R)-CypL with CypLase produced light, indicating that (R)-CypL must be considered as the luminous substrate for CypLase, as in the case of (S)-CypL, rather than a competitive inhibitor for CypLase. Additionally, we found that the maximum luminescence intensity from the reaction of (R)-CypL with CypLase was approximately 10 fold lower than that of (S)-CypL with CypLase, but our kinetic analysis of CypLase showed that the Km value of CypLase for (R)-CypL was approximately 3 fold lower than that for (S)-CypL. Furthermore, the chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of the reaction mixture of racemic CypL with CypLase showed that (R)-CypL was consumed more slowly than (S)-CypL. These results indicate that the turnover rate of CypLase for (R)-CypL was lower than that for (S)-CypL, which caused the less efficient luminescence of (R)-CypL with CypLase.

A perovskite-based electrochemiluminescence aptasensor for tetracycline screening.

Tetracyclines are currently the most commonly used class of antibiotics, and their residue issue significantly impacts public health safety. In this study, a surface modification of perovskite with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide led to the generation of stable electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitters in aqueous systems and improved the biocompatibility of perovskite. A perovskite quantum dot-based ECL sensing strategy was developed. Utilizing the corresponding aptamer of the antibiotics, strain displacement reactions were triggered, disrupting the ECL quenching system composed of perovskite and Ag nanoclusters (Ag NCs) on the electrode surface, generating a signal to achieve quantitative detection of several common tetracycline antibiotics. The perovskite quantum dot provided a strong and stable initial signal, while the efficient catalytic activity of the silver cluster enhanced the recognition sensitivity. Tetracycline, chlortetracycline, and oxytetracycline were used as examples to demonstrate the differentiation and quantitative detection through this method. In addition, the aptasensor exhibited analytical performance with the linear range (0.1-10 µM OTC) and good recovery rates of 94.7% to 101.6% in real samples. This approach has the potential to become a sensitive and practical approach for assessing antibiotic residues.

Renewable Electrochemiluminescence Biosensor Based on Eu-MOGs as a Highly Efficient Emitter and a DNAzyme-Mediated Dual-drive DNA Walker as a Signal Amplifier for Ultrasensitive Detection of miRNA-222.

Herein, novel europium metal-organic gels (Eu-MOGs) with excellent cathode electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission are first used to construct biosensors for the ultrasensitive detection of miRNA-222. Impressively, N and O elements of organic ligand 2,2':6,2″-terpyridine 4,4',4″-tricarboxylic acid (H3-tctpy) can perfectly coordinate with Eu3+ to form Eu-MOGs, which not only reduce nonradiative transition caused by the intramolecular free rotation of phenyl rings in other MOGs to enhance the ECL signal with extraordinary ECL efficiency as high as 37.2% (vs the [Ru(bpy)3]2+/S2O82- ECL system) but also reinforce ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) by the strong affinity between Eu3+ and N and O elements to greatly improve the stability of ECL signals. Besides, an improved nucleic acid cascade amplification reaction is developed to greatly raise the conversion efficiency from target miRNA-222 to a DNAzyme-mediated dual-drive DNA walker as output DNA, which can simultaneously shear the specific recognition sites from two directions. In that way, the proposed biosensor can further enhance the detection sensitivity of miRNA-222 with a linear range of 10 aM-1 nM and a detection limit (LOD) of 8.5 aM, which can also achieve an accurate response in cancer cell lysates of MHCC-97L and HeLa. Additionally, the biosensor can be self-regenerated by the folding/unfolding of related triplets with pH changes to simplify experimental operations and reduce the cost. Hence, this work proposed novel MOGs with stable and intense ECL signals for the construction of a renewable ECL biosensor, supplying a reliable detection method in biomarker analysis and disease diagnosis.
