Development of Low-Cost AuNP-Based Aptasensors with Truncated Aptamer for Highly Sensitive Detection of 8-Oxo-dG in Urine.

ABSTRACT: 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG), an oxidized form of guanosine residues, is a critical biomarker for various cancers. Herein, a sensitive citrate-capped gold nanoparticle-based aptasensor device has been developed for the detection of 8-oxo-dG in urine. We previously designed a 38-nt anti-8-oxo-dG-aptamer by a computer simulation and the experimental validation has been performed in the present work. The analytical performance of the 38-nt aptamer from the in silico design was compared with the parent 66-nt aptamer. This assay is based on the principle of salt-induced aggregation of citrate-capped gold nanoparticles. Based on this sensing mechanism, the difference between the absorbance in the presence and absence of 8-oxo-dG at ? = 525 nm (?A525) increased linearly as a function of 8-oxo-dG concentrations in the ranges of 10-100 and 15-100 nM for 38-nt and 66-nt aptasensors, respectively. This method can provide detection limits of 6.4 nM for 8-oxo-dG in the 38-nt aptasensor and 13.2 nM in the 66-nt aptasensor. Similar to the 66-nt aptamer, the shortened aptamer, 38-nt long, can provide high sensitivity and selectivity with rapid detection time. In addition, using the 38-nt aptamer as a recognition component in the developed portable low-cost device showed high sensitivity in the detection range of 15-100 nM with a detection limit of 12.9 nM, which is much lower than the threshold value (280 nM) for normal human urine. This easy-to-use device could effectively and economically be utilized for monitoring 8-oxo-dG in real urine samples and potentially serve as a prototype for a commercial device.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD), a chronic neurodegenerative disease associated with the loss of neurons in the brain, is the most pervasive type of dementia; 47 million people are affected, and the number is expected to increase to more than 131 million by 2050, according to Alzheimer's Disease International. Both early diagnosis and continuous monitoring are crucial for early intervention, symptomatic treatment, monitoring of the efficacy of intervention and improved patient function. Beta-amyloid peptide, tau, and phosphorylated tau are useful for screening and diagnosis; meanwhile, simultaneous assessment of multiple biomarkers is of paramount importance for accurate disease diagnosis. Methods: Herein, we report a direct, inexpensive and ultrasensitive aptamer-based multiplex assay for the quantification of trace amounts of AD biomarkers in both human serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. In this newly developed assay, molecular recognition of an antibody-aptamer pair provides high specificity in target detection, and the use of a DNA amplification strategy affords high sensitivity, allowing quantification of AD biomarkers in both biological fluids in 1.5 h with only a diminutive amount of the sample consumed. A tailor-made turn-on fluorophore, namely, SPOH, was employed to label the antibody-aptamer hybrids and provide a strong fluorescence signal, which was then detected with a total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (TIRFM-EMCCD) imaging system. The simultaneous detection of biomarkers was achieved by a direct shape-coded method in which the nanoplatforms can be distinguished from one another by their morphologies. Results: This assay demonstrated a lower detection limit (in the femtomolar range) for AD biomarkers than the previously reported antibody-antibody method. Conclusion: The developed assay holds tremendous clinical potential for early diagnosis of AD and monitoring of its progression.

Project description:Genetic information, irrespective of cell type (normal or cancerous), is exposed to a range of harmful factors, which can lead to more than 80 different types of DNA damage. Of these, oxoG and FapyG have been identified as the most abundant in normoxic and hypoxic conditions, respectively. This article considers d[AFapyGAOXOGA]*[TCTCT] (oligo-FapyG) with clustered DNA lesions (CDLs) containing both the above types of damage at the M06-2x/6-31++G** level of theory in the condensed phase. Furthermore, the electronic properties of oligo-FapyG were analysed in both equilibrated and non-equilibrated solvation-solute interaction modes. The vertical/adiabatic ionization potential (VIP, AIP) and electron affinity (VEA, AEA) of the investigated ds-oligo were found as follows in [eV]: 5.87/5.39 and -1.41/-2.09, respectively. The optimization of the four ds-DNA spatial geometries revealed that the transFapydG was energetically privileged. Additionally, CDLs were found to have little influence on the ds-oligo structure. Furthermore, for the FapyGC base-pair isolated from the discussed ds-oligo, the ionization potential and electron affinity values were higher than those assigned to OXOGC. Finally, a comparison of the influence of FapyGC and OXOGC on charge transfer revealed that, in contrast to the OXOGC base-pair, which, as expected, acted as a radical cation/anion sink in the oligo-FapyG structure, FapyGC did not significantly affect charge transfer (electron-hole and excess-electron). The results presented below indicate that 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine plays a significant role in charge transfer through ds-DNA containing CDL and indirectly has an influence on the DNA lesion recognition and repair process. In contrast, the electronic properties obtained for 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-foramido-2'deoxypyrimidine were found to be too weak to compete with OXOG to influence charge transfer through the discussed ds-DNA containing CDL. Because increases in multi-damage site formation are observed during radio- or chemotherapy, understanding their role in the above processes can be crucial for the efficiency and safety of medical cancer treatment.
