Electrostatic Nanocage-Confined Probe for Electrochemical Detection of CA19-9 in Human Serum.

ABSTRACT: Prompt and accurate detection of CA19-9 in human serum has great clinical significance for the early diagnosis and disease monitoring of cancer. Herein, we develop a convenient and antifouling electrochemical sensor for CA19-9 determination by immobilization of both an electrochemical redox probe [methylene blue (MB)] and immunorecognition element (CA19-9 antibody) on an electrostatic nanocage consisting of bipolar silica nanochannel array (bp-SNA). bp-SNA is composed of a negatively charged inner layer (n-SNA) and positively charged outer layer (p-SNA), which could be stably prepared on indium tin oxide (ITO) in several seconds using a two-step electrochemically assisted self-assembly approach and display asymmetric surface charges for confinement and enrichment of cationic MB into the inner n-SNA layer through electrostatic interaction. Modification of the CA19-9 antibody on the top surface of bp-SNA confers the sensing interface with specific recognition capacity. An antibody-antigen complex formed at the as-prepared immunosensor causes the decreased electrochemical signals of MB, achieving sensitive determination of CA19-9 with a wider linear dynamic range from 10 μU/mL to 50 U/mL and a low detection limit (3 μU/mL). Furthermore, accurate and feasible analysis of the CA19-9 amount in human serum samples by our proposed probe-integrated electrochemical immunosensor is realized.

Project description:Sensitive detection of tumor biomarkers is crucial for early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of cancer. Owing to no need of labelled antibody, formation of sandwich immunocomplexes and additional solution-based probe, probe-integrated electrochemical immunosensor for reagentless detection of tumor biomarkers is highly desirable. In this work, sensitive and reagentless detection of a tumor biomarker is realized based on fabrication of a probe-integrated immunosensor by confining redox probe in electrostatic nanocage array modified electrode. Indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode is employed as the supporting electrode because it is cheap and easily available. The silica nanochannel array consisted of two layers with opposite charges or different pore diameters was designated as bipolar films (bp-SNA). In this work, Electrostatic nanocage array is equipped on ITO electrode by growth of bp-SNA with two layered nanochannel array having different charge properties including a negatively charged silica nanochannel array (n-SNA) and a positively charged amino-modified SNA (p-SNA). Each SNA can be easily grown with 15 s using electrochemical assisted self-assembly method (EASA). Methylene blue (MB) is applied as the model electrochemical probe with positive charge to be confined in electrostatic nanocage array with stirring. The combination of the electrostatic attraction from n-SNA and the electrostatic repulsion from p-SNA endows MB with highly stable electrochemical signal during continuous scanning. When the amino groups of p-SNA are modified using the bifunctional glutaraldehyde (GA) to introduce aldehydes, the recognitive antibody (Ab) of the most commonly used tumor biomarker, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), can be covalently immobilized. After the non-specific sites are blocked, the immunosensor is successfully fabricated. As the formation of antigen-antibody complex decreases electrochemical signal, the immunosensor can achieve reagentless detection of CEA ranged from 10 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL with a low limit of detection (LOD, 4 pg/mL). Determination of CEA in human serum samples is realized with high accuracy.

Project description:In this paper, Au nanocages (AuNCs) loaded with the MRI contrast agent gadolinium (Gd) and capped with the tumor-targeting gene survivin (Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes) were designed and applied as a targeted imaging agent for pancreatic cancer. With its capacity to transport fluorescent dyes and MR imaging agents, the gold cage is an outstanding platform. Furthermore, it has the potential to transport different drugs in the future, making it a unique carrier platform. The utilization of Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes has proven to be an effective means of targeting and localizing survivin-positive BxPC-3 cells within their cytoplasm. By targeting survivin, an antiapoptotic gene, the Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobe was able to induce pro-apoptotic effects in BxPC-3 pancreatic cancer cells. The biocompatibility of AuNCs•Gd, AuNCs•Gd-Cy7 nanoparticles, and Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes is evaluated through the hemolysis rate assay. The stability of AuNCs•Gd, AuNCs•Gd-Cy7 nanoparticles, and Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes was evaluated by determining their hydrodynamic dimensions following storage in different pH solutions for a corresponding duration. Excellent biocompatibility and stability of the Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes will facilitate their further utilization in vivo and in vitro. The surface-bound survivin plays a role in facilitating the Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes' ability to locate the BxPC-3 tumor. The probe was modified to incorporate Gd and Cy7, thereby enabling the simultaneous utilization of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fluorescence imaging (FI) techniques. In vivo, the Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes were found to effectively target and localize survivin-positive BxPC-3 tumors through the use of MRI and FI. After being injected via the caudal vein, the Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes were found to accumulate effectively in an in situ pancreatic cancer model within 24 h. Furthermore, these nanoprobes were observed to be eliminated from the body through the kidneys within 72 h after a single injection. This characteristic is crucial for a diagnostic agent. Based on the aforementioned outcomes, the Sur-AuNC•Gd-Cy7 nanoprobes have significant potential advantages for the theranostic treatment of pancreatic cancer. This nanoprobe possesses distinctive characteristics, such as advanced imaging abilities and specific drug delivery, which offer the possibility of enhancing the precision of diagnosis and efficacy of treatment for this destructive illness.
