PH-Responsive Triplex DNA Nanoswitches: Surface Plasmon Resonance Platform for Bladder Cancer-Associated microRNAs.

ABSTRACT: Bladder cancer (BC) has a high recurrence rate, necessitating frequent monitoring. We herein present an innovative method for detecting BC-related miR-183 and miR-155 microRNAs using pH-responsive triplex DNA nanoswitches (TDNs). This approach employs a stepwise surface plasmon resonance biosensing platform (TDNs-SPR assay) to detect these two miRNAs sequentially. The platform involves the assembly of two triplex pH-responsive probes, switch A (SA) and switch B (SB), on an SPR sensing interface by anchoring the probes to the surface through SA/miR-183 and SB/miR-155 binding to the S9.6 antibody-modified surface. The probes are functionalized with streptavidin-Au nanoparticles/biotinylated strands, which act as reporter units for the presence of the respective miRNAs on the sensing interfac
