DNA-gold nanoprobe-based integrated biosensing technology for non-invasive liquid biopsy of serum miRNA: A new frontier in prostate cancer diagnosis.

ABSTRACT: The low specificity of prostate-specific antigen contributes to overdiagnosis and ov ertreatment of prostate cancer (PCa) patients. Hence, there is an urgent need for inclusive diagnostic platforms that could improve the diagnostic accuracy of PCa. Dysregulated miRNAs are closely associated with the progression and recurrence and have emerged as promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for PCa. Nevertheless, simple, rapid, and ultrasensitive quantification of serum miRNAs is highly challenging. This study designed, synthesized, and demonstrated the practicability of DNA-linked gold nanoprobes (DNA-AuNPs) for the single-step quantification of miR-21/miR-141/miR-375. In preclinical study, the assay differented PCa Pten conditional knockout (Pten^cKO) mice compared to their age-matched Pten wild-type (Pten^WT) control mice. In human sera, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve-based correlation analyses revealed clear discrimination between PCa patients from normal healthy controls using training and validation sets. Overall, we established integrated nano-biosensing technology for the PCR-free, non-invasive liquid biopsies of multiple miRNAs for PCa diagnosis.

Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the type of OC with the highest mortality rate. Due to the asymptomatic nature of the disease and few available diagnostic tests, it is mostly diagnosed at the advanced stage. Therefore, the present study aimed to discover predictive and/or early diagnostic novel circulating microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) for EOC. Firstly, microarray analysis of miRNA expression levels was performed on 32 samples of female individuals: Eight plasma samples from patients with pathologically confirmed EOC (mean age, 45 (30-54) years), eight plasma samples from matched healthy individuals (HIs) (mean age, 44 (30-65) years), eight EOC tissue samples (mean age, 45 (30-54) years) and eight benign ovarian (mean age, 35 (17-70) years) neoplastic tissue samples A total of 31 significantly dysregulated miRNAs in serum and three miRNAs in tissue were identified by microarray. The results were validated using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR on samples from 10 patients with pathologically confirmed EOC (mean age, 47(30-54) years), 10 matched His (mean age, 40(26-65) years], 10 EOC tissue samples (mean age, 47(30-54) years) and 10 benign ovarian neoplastic tissue samples (mean age, 40(17-70) years). The 'Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes' (KEGG) database was used for target gene and pathway analysis. A total of three miRNAs from EOC serum (hsa-miR-1909-5p, hsa-miR-885-5p and hsa-let-7d-3p) and one microRNA from tissue samples (hsa-miR-200c-3p) were validated as significant to distinguish patients with EOC from HIs. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed seven significant pathways, which included 'prion diseases', 'proteoglycans in cancer', 'oxytocin signaling pathway', 'hippo signaling pathway', 'adrenergic signaling in cardiomyocytes', 'oocyte meiosis' and 'thyroid hormone signaling pathway', in which the validated miRNAs served a role. This supports the hypothesis that four validated miRNAs, have the potential to be a biomarker of EOC diagnosis and target for treatment.
