Glypican-3 (GPC3) is a membrane-associated proteoglycan that is specifically upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and has become one of the most promising biomarkers closely related to the occurrence and development of HCC. In this work, platinum@palladium nanoparticles decorated with hemin-reduced graphene oxide (H-rGO-Pt@Pd NPs) were used not only as a support for GPC3 aptamer (GPC3Apt) immobilization, but also as a new redox nanoprobe in electrochemical analysis for the determination of GPC3. The electrochemical aptasensor involved a reaction cell with a three-electrode system, and the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique was adopted. In the presence of GPC3, the formed GPC3Apt–GPC3 complexes had stable structures and were cleaved from the electrode surface, leading to more electroactive H-rGO-Pt@Pd NPs repelling freely from the GPC3Apt/H-rGO-Pt@Pd NPs and thus to the increase of the oxidation peak current of hemin in H-rGO-Pt@Pd NPs. Under optimal conditions and a working voltage of +700 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl), the label-free electrochemical GPC3 aptasensor showed superior performance with a wider concentration linear range (0.001–10.0 μg mL−1), a lower limit of detection (LOD) (0.181 ng mL−1, S/N = 3), a higher sensitivity (0.0446 μA μM−1 cm−2) and good selectivity. Furthermore, the fabricated aptasensor was applied to GPC3 determination in human serum samples with satisfactory recoveries of 94.3%–119% and RSDs of 0.15%–5.78%. The current work provides a flexible approach for the rapid and sensitive analysis of GPC3 and has a broad application prospect in the diagnosis of HCC.

This study aimed to prepare two hairpin-structure DNA probes by conjugating carminic acid (CA) or hemin into two ends of specific genes of coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) and enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) (probe CV-A16-CA and probe EV-A71-hemin ). Then, probe CV-A16-CA and probe EV-A71-hemin as the signal molecules were adsorbed onto NH 2 -MIL-53 (Al) (MOF). Based on these biocomposites, an electrochemical biosensor with dual-signal outputs for simultaneous assay of CV-A16 and EV-A71 was constructed. The stem-loops of probes switched both CA and hemin monomer to dimer, reducing the electrical activity of both CA and hemin. Subsequently, the target-induced opening of the stem-loop switched both CA and hemin dimers to monomers, resulting in two nonoverlapping increasing electrical signals. This sensitively reflected the concentration of target CV-A16 and target EV-A17 ranging from 10 −10 to 10 −15 M with a detection limit of 0.19 and 0.24 fM. This strategy was mainly applied to the simultaneous determination of target CV-A16 and target EV-A17 in 100% serum with satisfactory results. The MOF combined with the high loading capacity broke through the intrinsic limitation on sensitivity using the traditional methods. An increase of three orders of magnitude was observed. This study involved simple one-step detection, and only a simple replacement of a gene could trigger its potential in clinical and diagnostic applications.

Novel metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) based solid catalysts have been synthesized by encapsulating Hemin into the HKUST-1 MOF materials. These have been first applied in the chemiluminescence field with outstanding performance. The functionalized MOFs not only maintain an excellent catalytic activity inheriting from Hemin but also can be cyclically utilized as solid mimic peroxidases in the neutral condition. The synthesized Hemin@HKUST-1 composites have been used to develop practical sensors for H2O2 and glucose with wide response ranges and low detection limits. It was envisioned that catalyst-functionalized MOFs for chemiluminescence sensing would have promising applications in green, selective, and sensitive detection of target analytes in the future.

A Golgi protein 73 (GP73) colorimetric biosensor based on the reduced graphene oxide-carboxymethyl chitosan-hemin/platinum@palladium nanoparticles (RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs) with peroxidase-like activity was constructed. The RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs with high peroxidase-like activity were successfully synthesized under mild conditions. Then, the aminylated GP73 aptamer (Apt) was bound to the RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs to form the recognition probe. Another unmodified GP73 aptamer (AptI) was served as the capture probe. In the presence of target GP73, the capture probe and the recognition probe specifically bind to GP73 and form a RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NP-Apt/GP73/AptI sandwich-type structure, which can oxidase the colorless 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into blue oxTMB in the presence of H 2 O 2 . GP73 detection was achieved by measuring the peak UV absorption at 652 nm. Under the optimum conditions, the GP73 concentration was linearly related to the absorbance intensity in the range 10.0–110.0 ng/mL, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 4.7 ng/mL. The proposed colorimetric biosensor was successfully applied to detect GP73 in spiked human serum samples with recoveries of 98.2–107.0% and RSDs of 1.90–5.44%, demonstrating the excellent potential for highly sensitive GP73 detection in clinical detection. Graphical abstract A colorimetric biosensor for visual determination of GP73 based on RGO-CMCS-Hemin/Pt@Pd NPs nanozyme with peroxidase-like activity was designed. The GP73 biosensor responses linearly from 10.0–110.0 ng/mL with LOD of 4.7 ng/mL, and shows acceptable specificity and good recovery.

An electrochemical aptasensor for quantitatively detecting glypican-3 (GPC3) was constructed by combining hemin-reduced graphene oxide-platinum (H-rGO-Pt) nanoparticles (NPs) with reduced graphene oxide-gold (rGO-Au) nanoparticles (NPs). Herein, the rGO-Au NPs deposited onto screen-printed
electrodes resulted in signal amplification due to their large surface areas. Meanwhile, highly conductive H-rGO-Pt NPs acted as a sensing medium that improved electrical conductivity and as an indicator for monitoring peak current for determination. A GPC3 aptamer (GPC3apt) with a low equilibrium
dissociation constant was used as a bio-recognition molecule. GPC3apt specifically captured GPC3 proteins and formed aptamer-GPC3 complexes, which impeded electron transfer and thus hampered the redox signal of hemin in H-rGO-Pt NPs. This developed electrochemical aptasensor showed a linear
response to GPC3 (from 0.001 μg/mL to 10 μg/mL) and had a detection limit of 0.001 μg/mL. This work provides a low-cost and highly sensitive detection with and good recovery for GPC3 and holds great promise for the clinical diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Graphical Time for gold : A smart electrochemical aptamer biosensor for K562 leukemia cancer cells with enhanced peroxidase-like properties that shows a good performance in selectivity and sensitivity is presented. The biosensor employs a new graphene-family ternary composite with prickly Au nanoflowers on its surface. Graphene composites with hemin and gold nanoparticles show a better performance for hydrogen peroxide decomposition compared to that of the three components alone or duplex/hybrid complexes. Our previous studies showed that the morphology of the Au nanoparticles may greatly influence the catalytic activity of graphene-family peroxidase mimics. Recently, we found that Au nanoflowers could grow in situ and form on the surface of hemin/RGO (reduced graphene oxide). The prickly morphology of this Au nanoflower brought a higher catalytic ability with enhanced kinetic parameters than traditional Au nanoparticles that showed a smooth surface. Therefore, based on this discovery, a smart electrochemical aptamer biosensor for K562 leukemia cancer cells was further presented with good performance in selectivity and sensitivity attributed to the excellent mimetic peroxidase catalytic activity of this newly synthesized Au nanoflower decorated graphene–hemin composite (H-RGO-Au NFs).

A sandwich chemiluminescence (CL) immunosensor for sensitive detection of human leptin was developed with a multiple signal amplification strategy from catalytic hemin/G-quadruplex DNAzymes and functional superparamagnetic nanocomposites. To construct this sensing platform, core–shell structural Fe 3 O 4 /polydopamine (PD)/Au superparamagnetic nanocomposites were synthesized by an in situ method with PD as a substrate adhesive. These nanocomposites were further characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electronic microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrum and a vibrating sample magnetometer at room temperature. In this immunosensor, the monoclonal anti-human leptin antibody (capture antibody) was bound to the Fe 3 O 4 /PD/Au nanocomposites. Human leptin, biotinylated detection antibodies and streptavidin-DNAzymes were successively combined the above-mentioned nanocomposites to form sandwich-type immunocomplex through specific interactions. The magnetic particles loaded with the immunocomplex were separated by an external magnet, and the DNAzymes in the immunocomplex greatly enhanced the CL emission of the luminol–H 2 O 2 system. The immunosensor exhibited a high sensitivity, a good specificity, and a wide linear range for human leptin detection from 1.0 pg mL −1 to 8.0 × 10 2 pg mL −1 with a low detection limit of 0.3 pg mL −1 . This sensor is one of the most sensitive methods for leptin detection due to the highly efficient catalysis of the DNAzymes and analyte enrichment on magnetic capture.

The authors have incidentally found that the three tandem repeats of a 13-mer G-rich oligomer (with sequence 5′-TGG GAA GGG AGG G-3′; referred to as G3) can directly fold into a stable G3 trimer. The G3 trimer/hemin DNAzyme exhibits an about 3-fold higher peroxidase-mimicking activity compared to the conventional G3/hemin DNAzyme. Combining this finding with rolling circle amplification (RCA), a colorimetric assay was developed for sensitive and specific determination of microRNA. In this method, each cycle of RCA generates three catalytic units. This leads to a significant signal amplification of the RCA. Using let-7a as a model analyte, the colorimetric method (best performed at 420 nm) exhibits high sensitivity toward microRNA-let-7a with a 37 fM detection limit and an analytical range that covers 3 orders of magnitude. The method was applied to the determination of let-7a in some cell lysates.
This G-triplex trimer-based rolling circle amplification (RCA) method can produce three catalytic units per RCA cycle, which can significantly improve the amplification efficiency of RCA.

Escherichia coli O157: H7 ( E. coli O157: H7) is one of the most common foodborne pathogens and is widespread in food and the environment. Thus, it is significant for rapidly detecting E. coli O157: H7. In this study, a colorimetric aptasensor based on aptamer-functionalized magnetic beads, exonuclease III (Exo III), and G-triplex/hemin was proposed for the detection of E. coli O157: H7. The functional hairpin HP was designed in the system, which includes two parts of a stem containing the G-triplex sequence and a tail complementary to cDNA. E. coli O157: H7 competed to bind the aptamer (Apt) in the Apt-cDNA complex to obtain cDNA. The cDNA then bound to the tail of HP to trigger Exo III digestion and release the single-stranded DNA containing the G-triplex sequence. G-triplex/hemin DNAzyme could catalyze TMB to produce visible color changes and detectable absorbance signals in the presence of H 2 O 2 . Based on the optimal conditions, E. coli O157: H7 could be detected down to 1.3 × 10 3 CFU/mL, with a wide linear range from 1.3 × 10 3 to 1.3 × 10 7 CFU/mL. This method had a distinguished ability to non-target bacteria, which showed good specificity. In addition, the system was successfully applied to detect E. coli O157: H7 in milk samples.

Background Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one deadly subtype of stroke with high morbidity and mortality. Oxidative stress and inflammation are major factors contributing to blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction, which induces perihematoma edema and exacerbates ICH-induced secondary brain injury. SYN1 is a crucial neuronal phosphoprotein that plays a pivotal role in neuronal development. Our study was devised to clarify the function of SYN1 in hemin-induced cell injury in PC12 cells and brain injury in ICH rat models. Methods For in vitro assay, PC12 cells were first stimulated by 150 µM hemin for 4 h and then transfected with si-SYN1 and pcDNA3.1-SP1. Cell viability was tested through lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release and CCK-8 assays. Cell apoptosis was observed through TUNEL staining. Inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) were evaluated through western blotting. Oxidative markers (GSH, MDA, and SOD) were detected by adopting commercial kits. The binding sites of SP1 on the SYN1 promoter were predicted by using the JASPAR database and were validated through performing CHIP and luciferase reporter assays. SP1 and SYN1 expression in PC12 cells was investigated by RT-qPCR. For in vivo assay, rats were administrated intracerebroventricularly with si-SYN1 at 72 h before ICH induction. SYN1 and SP1 expression in ICH rats was assessed by RT-qPCR. Neurological deficits, brain edema, and BBB disruption at 24 h following ICH were assessed by conducting neurobehavioral tests, brain water content examination, and Evans blue extravasation assay. Results In vitro, hemin stimulation elevated SYN1 expression, attenuated cell viability, enhanced apoptosis, and induced inflammation and oxidative stress in PC12 cells, which were offset by SYN1 knockdown. SP1 bound to the SYN1 promoter region and positively regulated SYN1 expression. Overexpressing SP1 antagonized the impacts of SYN1 downregulation on hemin-induced damage in PC12 cells. In vivo , SYN1 and SP1 expression was upregulated in ICH rat models. Administration of si-SYN1 effectually improved neurological function, attenuated brain edema, and ameliorated BBB disruption following ICH. Conclusion SP1-mediated SYN1 probably participates in the process of neuronal damage, BBB disruption, and brain injury following ICH.

Atrazine (ATZ) is used extensively, resulting in residues in food and the environment, posing a serious threat to human health. Herein, Cd 0.5 Zn 0.5 S/Ti 3 C 2 photoelectric material was synthesized and immobilized on a FTO electrode as a photoanode. A photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptamer sensor was constructed for the highly sensitive and selective determination of ATZ based on signal amplification via cascade catalysis of CRISPR/Cas12a and G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme (G4/hemin DNAzyme). G4/hemin DNAzyme catalyses the oxidation reaction between H 2 O 2 and dopamine (DA) to form polydopamine (PDA) deposit. This process, in turn, inhibits the photocurrent at the photoanode, leading to a decrease in photocurrent. Concurrently, the depletion of DA as an electron donor for the PEC reaction at the photoelectrode further contributes to the decrease in photocurrent. ATZ can hybridize with ATZ aptamer (Apt) in Apt/cDNA to release activation strand (cDNA), which activates the activity of CRISPR/Cas12a and triggers cleavage of G4, causing the cleaving of G4/hemin DNAzyme immobilized on the electrode surface. This process leads to a decrease of G4/hemin DNAzymes amount on the electrode, consequently reducing both the PDA generation and the DA consumption. As a result, the photocurrent is restored. The cascade catalysis of CRISPR/Cas12a and G4/hemin DNAzyme has been demonstrated to result in photocurrent amplification. The photocurrent change was linear with the logarithmic value of ATZ concentration in the range 1.00 × 10 –12 to 1.00 × 10 –5 mol/L. The limit of detection was 3.47 × 10 –13 mol/L. The sensor has been successfully applied to the determination of trace ATZ in environmental and food samples. Graphical abstract

Based on cascade catalysis amplification driven by glucose oxidase (GOx), a sensitive electrochemical impedimetric aptasensor for protein (carcinoembryonic antigen, CEA as tested model) was proposed by using Cu-based metal-organic frameworks functionalized with Pt nanoparticles , aptamer , hemin and GOx ( [email protected] ). CEA aptamer loaded onto [email protected] was bound with hemin to form [email protected] (hGq) with mimicking peroxidase activity. Through sandwich-type reaction of target CEA and CEA aptamers (Apt1 and Apt2), the obtained [email protected] as signal transduction probes (STPs) was captured to the modified electrode interface. When 3,3-diaminobenzidine (DAB) and glucose were introduced, the cascade reaction was initiated by GOx to catalyze the oxidation of glucose, in situ generating H 2 O 2 . Simultaneously, the decomposition of the generated H 2 O 2 was greatly promoted by [email protected] and hGq as synergistic peroxide catalysts, accompanying with the significant oxidation process of DAB and the formation of nonconductive insoluble precipitates (IPs). As a result, the electron transfer in the resultant sensing interface was effectively hindered and the electrochemical impedimetric signal (EIS) was efficiently amplified. Thus, the high sensitivity of the proposed CEA aptasensor was successfully improved with 0.023 pg mL −1 , which may be promising and potential in assaying certain clinical disease related to CEA.
