Liver cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the highest fatality rate and increasing incidence, which has no effective treatment plan. Early diagnosis and early treatment of liver cancer play a vital role in prolonging the survival period of patients and improving the cure rate. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) are two crucial tumor markers for liver cancer diagnosis. In this work, we firstly proposed a wafer-level, highly controlled silicon nanowire (SiNW) field-effect transistor (FET) joint detection sensor for highly sensitive and selective detection of CEA and AFP. The SiNWs-FET joint detection sensor possesses 4 sensing regions. Each sensing region consists of 120 SiNWs arranged in a 15 × 8 array. The SiNW sensor was developed by using a wafer-level and highly controllable top-down manufacturing technology to achieve the repeatability and controllability of device preparation. To identify and detect CEA/AFP, we modified the corresponding CEA antibodies/AFP antibodies to the sensing region surface after a series of surface modification processes, including O2 plasma treatment, soaking in 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) solution, and soaking in glutaraldehyde (GA) solution. The experimental results showed that the SiNW array sensor has superior sensitivity with a real-time ultralow detection limit of 0.1 fg ml−1 (AFP in 0.1× PBS) and 1 fg ml−1 (CEA in 0.1× PBS). Also, the logarithms of the concentration of CEA (from 1 fg ml−1 to 10 pg ml−1) and AFP (from 0.1 fg ml−1 to 100 pg ml−1) achieved conspicuously linear relationships with normalized current changes. The R2 of AFP in 0.1× PBS and R2 of CEA in 0.1× PBS were 0.99885 and 0.99677, respectively. Furthermore, the sensor could distinguish CEA/AFP from interferents at high concentrations. Importantly, even in serum samples, our sensor could successfully detect CEA/AFP. This demonstrates the promising clinical development of our sensor.

Sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was one of the main methods for detecting carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). In this work, using Ce-MoF as the skeleton precursor, hyaluronic acid (HA) was coated on the surface of Ce-metal organic framework (Ce-MoF), which loaded with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) to catalyze H2O2 and double amplified the current signal. Thus, a sensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor (Ce-MoF@ HA/Ag-HRP) was designed to detect carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The designed immunosensor used Au NPs to enhance the ability of attach more the first antibody (Ab1). This was due to Au NPs had good electrical conductivity and biocompatibility to accelerate electron transfer on the surface of the electrode. HA was riched in –COOH, –OH and had excellent biocompatibility, which can carry more Ag NPs to catalyze H2O2. Finally, the prepared sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor had excellent biocompatibility and great catalytic performance. The immunosensor can be tested within 30 min and the logarithm of the current signal and CEA concentration showed a broad linear response range of 1 pg ml−1–80 ng ml−1, and the detection limit of CEA was 0.2 pg ml−1. More importantly, the proposed immunosensor had good reproducibility, selectivity, stability and without matrix effect. This confirmed that the proposed immunosensor had broad prospects in early clinical trials.

This work aimed to establish a simple and feasible method to obtain silk fibroin nanoparticles (SFNPs) with uniform particles size, and then modify the SFNPs with nanobody (Nb) 11C12 targeting the proximal membrane end of carcinoembryonic antigen on the surface of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. The regenerated silk fibroin (SF) was isolated using ultrafiltration tubes with a 50 kDa molecular weight cut-off, and the retention fraction (named as SF > 50 kDa) was further self-assembled into SFNPs by ethanol induction. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscop showed that the SFNPs with uniform particles size were formed. Due to electrostatic adsorption and pH responsiveness, SFNPs have been proved to effectively load and release the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) (DOX@SFNPs). Further, targeting molecule Nb 11C12 was used to modify these nanoparticles, constituting the targeted outer layer of the drug delivery system (DOX@SFNPs-11C12), achieving precise localization to cancer cells. The release amount of DOX observed from in vitro drug release profiles increased as follows: pH 7.4 < pH 6.8 < pH 5.4, demonstrating that the DOX release could be accelerated in a weakly acidic environment. In vitro cytotoxicity experiments displayed that SFNPs-11C12 nanoparticles exhibited good safety and biocompatibility. Drug-loaded nanoparticles, DOX@SFNPs-11C12, led to higher LoVo cells apoptosis compared to DOX@SFNPs. Fluorescence spectrophotometer characterization and confocal laser scanning microscopy further showed that the internalization of DOX was highest in the DOX@SFNPs-11C12, certifying that the introduced targeting molecule enhanced the uptake of drug delivery system by LoVo cells. This study provides a simple and operational approach to developing an optimized SFNPs drug delivery system modified by targeting Nb, which can be a good candidate for CRC therapy.

Compared with single response systems, dual-mode sensors have attracted much attention due to their high accuracy and high sensitivity. In this work, we successfully combined the high sensitivity of the electrochemical analysis method with the simplicity and rapidity of colorimetric analysis technology to construct a device that can accurately and quickly detect CEA in dual mode. The device in platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) loaded on an octahedral cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) surface has excellent peroxidase performance. Using Cu 2 O/Pt NPs as a signal tag can not only generate a larger response current in electrochemical mode but also effectively catalyze 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) color development in colorimetric mode. The results show that the dual mode sensor has good detection performance. Using the electrochemical analysis method, the detection range was 0.1 pg/mL - 80 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 0.03 pg/mL. The detection range of colorimetric analysis technology was 0.1 ng/mL - 80 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 0.026 ng/mL. Therefore, the dual-mode sensor has excellent detection performance, good selectivity, reproducibility and stability and provides a new detection method for early cancer detection and prognosis monitoring.

Electrochemical immunosensors are essential for disease screening, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring. In this study, a novel sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor has been constructed for the sensitive detection of tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) based on platinum‑zinc oxide (Pt-ZnO) nanoparticles as a signal amplification platform. Pt-ZnO has outstanding peroxidase-like activity that enables efficient catalysis of the H 2 O 2 reaction, leading to effective amplification of the current signal through numerous electron transfers. Its high specific surface area and excellent dispersion allow for immobilization with secondary antibodies through the Pt N bond. Moreover, graphene quantum dots–chitosan possesses outstanding electrical conductivity and biocompatibility, enabling it to improve interfacial electron transfer and capture more primary antibodies on its surface. The Pt-ZnO signal amplification system has achieved a wide linear range for the CEA detection, which spanned from 10 fg mL −1 to 100 ng mL −1 with the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.02 fg mL −1 . The LOD of the electrochemical immunosensor was seven orders of magnitude lower than that of the traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Furthermore, it has viable reproducibility, stability and practicality. Hence the Pt-ZnO electrochemical immunosensor has great potential for the clinical identification of CEA.

A novel sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor based on cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O)@copper-metal organic framework (Cu-MOF)@gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) core–shell structure was proposed. Cu 2 O@Cu-MOF@Au attached with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) triple-catalyzed hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) for detecting CEA antigen. In this work, 50 nm Cu 2 O nanospheres were prepared. Using Cu 2 O nanospheres as the core, Cu-MOF was coated on the surface of Cu 2 O nanospheres by reaction of Cu 2 O and ligands. Subsequently, chloroauric acid was reduced to Au NPs without adding any reducing agent and Au NPs dispersed on the surface of Cu-MOF. Finally, the Cu 2 O@Cu-MOF@Au-HRP-Ab 2 nanoprobe was successfully prepared. Immunosensors had good performance due to the following reasons. Firstly, Cu 2 O, Cu-MOF and HRP have excellent catalytic properties for hydrogen peroxide. In addition, the synergistic effect of Cu 2 O, Cu-MOF and HRP promoted the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and tripled amplification of electrical signals. Here, the successfully prepared immunosensor detected carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) sensitively, the detection range was 50 fg/mL–80 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 17 fg/mL. Besides, the proposed immunosensor had good stability, selectivity and specificity. Detection in human serum samples had good results without matrix effect. This provided a new idea for the clinical detection of tumor markers: "metal oxide—metal organic framework—precious metal nanoparticles" (MMP). Graphic abstract

An ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was designed by using gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as the substrate material and microporous carbon spheres (CS) loading silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) spaced Hemin/reduced graphene oxide (Hemin/rGO) porous composite materials (Ag NPs@CS-Hemin/rGO) as the detection antibodies (Ab 2 ) label for detecting carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The Au NPs with good electrical conductivity and biocompatibility could accelerate the electron transfer on the electrode interface and enhance the load capacity of capture antibodies (Ab 1 ). Hemin is peroxidase-like substance which has excellent catalytic ability for H 2 O 2 reduction but easy to molecular aggregation and oxidative self-destruction. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is a good supporting material for Hemin to mitigate this disadvantage. CS loading Ag NPs (Ag NPs@CS) as the spacer inserts into Hemin/rGO sheet can overcome the irreversible stacking of rGO, and form complex porous structure which exposes more active sites of Hemin. Moreover, Ag NPs loaded on CS also has catalytic ability for H 2 O 2 reduction. Thus the Ag NPs@CS-Hemin/rGO used as the Ab 2 label has a large working surface area and high utilization rate, which heightens the catalytic ability for H 2 O 2 reduction to amplify the current signal effectually. The current signal and the logarithm of CEA concentration presented a wide linear response range of 20 fg/mL to 200 ng/mL, and the detection limit of CEA was 6.7 fg/mL. Furthermore, the designed immunosensor exhibited a good reproducibility, selectivity and stability, which confirms a broad development prospect when applying it in early clinical detection.

In this present work, a rapid and simple method to detect carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was developed by using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) coupled with antibody-modified Au and γ-Fe 2 O 3 @Au nanoparticles. First, [email protected] reporter and γ-Fe 2 O 3 @Au were prepared, and then modified with CEA antibody. When CEA was present, the [email protected] reporter and immuno-γ-Fe 2 O 3 @Au formed a complex through antibody-antigen-antibody interaction. The selective and sensitive detection of CEA could be achieved by SERS after magnetic separation. Under the optimal conditions, a linear relationship was observed between the Raman peak intensity and the concentration of CEA in the range of 1–50 ng mL −1 with an excellent correlation coefficient of 0.9942. The limit of detection based on two times ratio of signal to noise was 0.1 ng/mL. The recoveries of CEA standard solution spiked with human serum samples were in the range of 88.5–105.9% with the relative standard deviations less than 17.4%. The method built was applied to the detection of CEA in human serum, and the relative deviations of the analysis results between the present method and electrochemiluminescence immunoassay were all less than 16.6%. The proposed method is practical and has a potential for clinic test of CEA.

It's the first time for SnS 2 -GR was exploited as a sensing matrix. Here, the photocurrent signals of SnS 2 were amplified attributed to the sensitization effect of graphene. As signal amplifier, [email protected] could quench the photocurrents of SnS 2 -GR not only through the p-n type semiconductor quenching effect as well as the steric hindrance effect, but also as peroxidase mimetics to catalyze the oxidation of 4-Chloro-1-naphthol (4-CN) to produce insoluble product on the electrode surface . Based on the multiple signal amplification ability of [email protected] , CEA was detected sensitively with a linear range from 0.1 pg mL −1 to 10 ng mL −1 and limit of detection down to 59.9 fg mL −1 (S/N = 3). Meanwhile, the PEC biosensor displayed excellent performance in the assay of human serum sample, showing good application prospects for various target analysis.

Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a key serum tumor marker which is overexpressed in all types of adenocarcinomas. Therefore, establish the ultrasensitive, accurate and rapid method for CEA detection is essential for reducing the mortality of cancer. Here, a bimetallic organic framework Cu/UiO-66 was synthesized through the simple two-step hydrothermal method and used to construct a “fluorescence turn-on” analytical method for CEA detection. Cu/UiO-66 can adsorb CEA aptamers modified with FAM (CEA/FAM-Apt) and take place photoinduced electron transfer (PET) between Cu/UiO-66 and FAM, resulting in the fluorescence of the FAM is quenched. When CEA is present, CEA and CEA/FAM-Apt are tightly combined, making CEA/FAM-Apt far away from the Cu/UiO-66 surface. As a result, the fluorescence intensity of the system was significantly restored. Under optimal conditions, the proposed “fluorescence turn-on” method can detect CEA as low as 0.01 ng mL −1 in a range of 0.01–0.3 ng mL −1 . Besides, this analytical method owns good selectivity , reproducibility and serum applicability, which provides a new platform for the direct detection of clinical diagnosis-related markers.

Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is an important tumor biomarker for the early clinical diagnosis of various cancers, and, therefore, the accurate and sensitive quantitative determination of CEA is of vital significance. In this study, we demonstrated the in situ growth of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) on nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) decorated reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposites by using simple drop-coating and electrochemical deposition methods. N-GQDs@rGO can be formed through the π–π stacking interaction and possesses a high specific surface area and many functional groups, providing lots of anchor sites (amino moieties in NGQDs) for the in situ electrochemical growth of AuNPs without the addition of reductants and protective agents. Such AuNPs/N-GQDs@rGO ternary nanocomposites combine the characteristics of three nanomaterials, showing a large surface area, excellent solubility, good conductivity, catalytic activity, a simple fabrication process, and notable stability, which are further used to construct a label-free electrochemical immunosensor for the determination of CEA. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the AuNPs/N-GQDs@rGO-based electrochemical immunosensor achieves a broad linear response, ranging from 1 pg/mL to 0.5 μg/mL and a low detection limit of 0.13 pg/mL. Moreover, the AuNPs/N-GQDs@rGO-based electrochemical immunosensor shows exceptional selectivity, anti-interference, and anti-fouling capabilities for the direct analysis of CEA amounts in fetal bovine serum samples, showing vast potential in the clinical screening of cancer.
