NGAL is a promising novel biomarker for acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). More rapid and user-friendly methods are needed for the timely monitoring of NGAL in human urine and serum. UCP technology-based lateral flow assay (UPT-LFA) was developed for rapid, user-friendly and quantitative detection of the NGAL in human serum specimens and urine specimens. Under optimal conditions, the UPT-LFA displayed a rapid response to NGAL with a LOD of 7.68 ng/mL and detection range from 7.68 to 1000 ng/mL. The UPT-LFA method was compared with commercial immunoturbidimetry (103 urine specimens), and by ELISA (26 serum specimens), respectively. The results demonstrated that the UPT-LFA was consistent with immunoturbidimetry assay, reporting a 97.92% of positive and 92.73% of negative coincidence rates, respectively. Meanwhile, the concordance rate between UPT-LFA and ELISA, as shown by correlative regression analysis, was also high (R 2 =0.95). The whole assay can be completed within 30 min compared to 4 h consuming with ELISA. The research implies that, the UPT-LFA provides a potential to be used in point of care testing (POCT) to define early acute kidney injury with advantages of user-friendly and rapid testing, promising this new assay a bright future.

The conventional ELISA lacked sufficient sensitivity and accuracy for analyzing neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL), a potential biomarker of ulcerative colitis. Here, we developed a dual-readout plasmonic ELISA with cascade amplification of alkaline phosphatase hydrolysis and O-phenylenediamine oxidation. In this novel plasmonic ELISA, alkaline phosphatase-conjugated antibodies capture NGAL from samples, alkaline phosphatase hydrolyzes 2-phospho-L-ascorbic acid into ascorbic acid, and then ascorbic acid blocks silver-catalyzed O-phenylenediamine oxidation by turning silver ions into silver microwires. Therefore, NGAL concentration is proportional to the decrease in chromogenic and fluorescent response. This novel plasmonic ELISA exhibited a linear range of 0.5–80 ng/mL, and the LOD was as low as 0.5 ng/mL. The sensitivity was superior to that of conventional ELISA and previous studies. The plasmonic ELISA exhibited favorable selectivity because of the specific antibody-antigen interaction and the robust cascade amplification. Besides, the dual-readout feature endowed the plasmonic ELISA with advantages in terms of convenience and compatibility. In summary, our study provided a novel and sensitive plasmonic ELISA for the diagnosis of ulcerative colitis.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious renal emergency that is often underdiagnosed and associated with high mortality rates. Early diagnosis of AKI is crucial to improve patient prognosis and reduce healthcare costs. In this study, a paper-based colloidal gold multiplex vertical flow assay was developed for rapid detection of three AKI biomarkers, namely, NGAL , CysC, and RBP4 , in a single test kit. In this system, specific capture antibodies were pre-immobilized on the sensing membrane at four spatially isolated immunoreactive sites. Gold nanoparticles were conjugated with detection antibodies as the colorimetrical labels. The resultant images could be read out qualitatively by the naked eyes or quantitatively by a smartphone-based readout device. Three AKI biomarkers could be simultaneously detected in 10–15 min. The detection sensitivity and specificity for clinical serum samples collected from 25 patients with AKI and 25 healthy individuals were determined as 92% and 88%. This vertical flow assay platform is easy to use, rapid, and low cost. It is a promising diagnostic tool for multiplex detection of disease biomarkers at point of care.

Cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality worldwide, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Downstream-of-kinase 3 (Dok3), a member of the Dok family of adaptor proteins plays a critical role in inflammatory response and immune regulation ; however, the role of Dok3 in cisplatin-induced AKI remains unclear. This study explored the effect and potential molecular mechanisms of Dok3 in cisplatin-induced AKI using Dok3 knockout (Dok3 −/− ) and control mice (129S) with or without administration of a single intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin. Apoptosis was assessed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and Hoechst staining. Inflammatory factors were measured using ELISA kits. Protein and gene expression levels were measured by western blot analysis and real-time PCR, respectively. The results showed that Dok3 was expressed in renal tubular epithelial cells. Dok3 expression was decreased in kidneys of mice treated with cisplatin and cisplatin-treated HK2 cells. Dok3 −/ − mice showed lower creatinine levels and NGAL expression, and increased survival rates compared to 129S mice. Cisplatin-induced production of TNF-α and IL-6, and renal tubular cell apoptosis was attenuated in Dok3 − / − mice. In vitro experiments demonstrated that HK2 cells overexpressing Dok3 exhibited exacerbated cisplatin-induced apoptosis and production of TNF-α and IL-6. These findings demonstrate that Dok3 regulates cisplatin-induced AKI by regulating apoptosis and inflammation.
