癌症是范围最广、死亡率最高的疾病之一,2020 年约有 1000 万人死亡。最常见的癌症是乳腺癌、肺癌、结肠癌、直肠癌和前列腺癌。其中,2020 年,肺癌约占所有癌症死亡人数的 180 万人 (25%)。癌症的检测依赖于生物标志物的存在,例如癌细胞释放到循环中的 DNA 分子、蛋白质和代谢物。癌胚抗原(CEA)是已用于检测肺癌的生物标志物之一。然而,CEA并不是肺癌所特有的,它也出现在胃癌、胰腺癌、结直肠癌和乳腺癌中。最近,v-YES1山口肉瘤病毒癌基因同源物1(YES1)被描述为肺癌的特异性生物标志物。CEA和YES1的同时检测将为肺癌检测提供更准确、更真实的信息。这是因为,由于多种癌症具有不止一种与其患病率相关的标记物,因此单一肿瘤标记物的检测通常会限制肿瘤诊断的精确度。传统方法已用于检测CEA,电化学免疫传感器因其快速响应、小型化、高选择性、低样品需求和出色的灵敏度等显着优势而引起了广泛关注。多重同步免疫传感器的制造面临着制备具有不同氧化还原活性的可区分免疫探针的挑战。这可以通过将电活性纳米金属纳入传感平台来解决。在本研究中,金纳米粒子用于制造超灵敏夹心电化学多重免疫传感器,用于同时检测 CEA 和 YES1。在优化条件下,电化学免疫传感器对 YES1 和 CEA 的检测限分别为 0.0022 和 0.0034 ng/mL,线性范围为 0.1-50 ng/mL。所提出的免疫传感器被证明可以稳定长达两周,并且对人血浆中的各种干扰化合物具有可以忽略不计的交叉反应性。这项研究报告称,可以使用阴干的芒果叶提取物生物合成金纳米颗粒。生物合成的金纳米粒子与硫醇化蛋白 G 偶联可用于制造用于检测 CEA 和 YES1 的多重免疫传感器。所提出的免疫传感器可以为循环癌症生物标志物的早期诊断提供新方法,并在临床诊断中具有广阔的应用前景。

Ultrasensitive immunosensor for multiplex detection of cancer biomarkers carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and yamaguchi sarcoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (YES1) based on eco-friendly synthesized gold nanoparticles
Cancer is one of the most extensive diseases with the highest mortality rate, accounting for almost 10 million deaths in 2020. The most common cancers are breast, lung, colon and rectum and prostate cancers. Of these, lung cancer, accounted for about 1.8 million of all cancer deaths (25%) in 2020. Detection of cancer relies on presence of biomarkers such as DNA molecules, proteins and metabolites released by cancerous cells into the circulation. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is one of the biomarkers that has been used for the detection of lung cancer. However, CEA is not specific to lung cancer since it is also manifested in gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, and breast cancer. Recently, v-YES1 Yamaguchi sarcoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (YES1) was described as a specific biomarker for lung cancer. The detection of both CEA and YES1 would give more precise and authentic information for detecting lung cancer. This is because detection of a single tumor marker usually limits the precision in tumor diagnosis, due to the fact that several cancers have more than one marker linked with their prevalence. Whereas traditional methods have been used for the detection of CEA, electrochemical immunosensors have attracted considerable attention owing to their profound advantages, including fast response, miniaturization, high selectivity, low sample requirements and magnificent sensitivity. The fabrication of a multiplex and simultaneous immunosensor is met with challenge of preparation of distinguishable immunoprobes with different redox activities. This can be addressed by incorporation of electroactive Nano metals into the sensing platform. In this study, gold nanoparticles were used for the fabrication of an ultrasensitive sandwich electrochemical multiplex immunosensor for simultaneous detection of CEA and YES1. Under optimized conditions, the electrochemical immunosensor detection limit for YES1 and CEA was found to be 0.0022 and 0.0034 ng/mL respectively within a linear range of 0.1–50 ng/mL. The proposed immunosensor proved to be stable for up to 2 weeks and had negligible cross reactivity towards various interfering compounds in human plasma. This study reports that gold nanoparticles can be bio synthesized using shade dried Mangifera indica leaves extract. The bio-synthesized gold nanoparticles coupled with thiolated protein G can be used for fabrication of a multiplex immunosensor for detection of CEA and YES1. The proposed immunosensor can provide a new approach for early diagnosis of circulating cancer biomarkers and holds great promise for application in clinical diagnosis.
