ABSTRACT
DNA assemblies are commonly used in biosensing, particularly for the detection and imaging of microRNAs (miRNAs), which are biomarkers associated with tumor progression. However, the difficulty lies in the exploration of high-sensitivity analytical techniques for miRNA due to its limited presence in living cells. In this study, we introduced a DNA nanosphere (DS) enhanced catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) system for the detection and imaging of intracellular miR-21. The single-stranded DNA with four palindromic portions and extending sequences at the terminal was annealed for assembling DS, which avoided the complex sequence design and high cost of long DNA strands. Benefiting from the multiple modification sites of DS, functional hairpins H1 (modified with Cy3 and BHQ2) and H2 were grafted onto the surface of DS for assembling DS-H1-H2 using a hybridization reaction. The DS-H1-H2 system utilized spatial confinement and the CHA reaction to amplify fluorescence signals of Cy3. This enabled highly sensitive and rapid detection of miR-21 in the range from 0.05 to 3.5 nM. The system achieved a limit of determination (LOD) of 2.0 pM, which was 56 times lower than that of the control CHA circuit with freedom hairpins. Additionally, the sensitivity was improved by 8 times. Moreover, DS-H1-H2 also showed an excellent imaging capability for endogenous miR-21 in tumor cells. This was due to enhanced cell internalization efficiency, accelerated reaction kinetics, and improved biostability. The imaging strategy was shown to effectively monitor the dynamic content of miR-21 in live cancer cells and differentiate various cells. In general, the simple nanostructure DS not only enhanced the detection and imaging capability of the conventional probe but also could be easily integrated with the reported DNA-free probe, indicating a wide range of potential applications.
