  • Title: Reusable and dual-potential responses electrogenerated chemiluminescence biosensor for synchronously cytosensing and dynamic cell surface N-glycan evaluation.
    Author: He Y, Li J, Liu Y.
    Journal: Anal Chem; 2015 Oct 06; 87(19):9777-85. PubMed ID: 26393525.
    Abstract:
    A novel reusable and dual-potential responsive electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was fabricated for synchronous detection of cancer cells and their surface N-glycan. In this strategy, a cancer cell recognized aptamer hybridized with a capture DNA was immobilized on electrochemically reduced MoS2 nanosheets, and Ru(phen)3(2+) as ECL probes was intercalated into the grooves of the double-strand DNA. In the presence of target cells, the capture DNA and Ru(phen)3(2+) were released from the electrode interface owing to the specific interaction between cancer cells and the aptamer. Meanwhile, concanavalin A (Con A), a mannose binding protein, and a conjugated gold nanoparticle modified graphite-C3N4 (Con A@Au-C3N4) was used as a negative ECL nanoprobe and applied for the cell surface N-glycan evaluation owing to the excellent ECL properties of g-C3N4 at negative potential. The cytosensing and cell surface N-glycan evaluation could be simultaneously realized with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity based on the ratio of ECL intensity between the negative potential and positive potential (ΔECLn/ΔECLp), avoiding the traditional routing cell counting procedures. Moreover, the aptamer modified electrode can be regenerated in the presence of capture DNA solutions for cyclic utilization. As a proof-of-concept, the ECL cytosensor showed excellent performances for the analysis of the MCF-7 cancer cell and its surface N-glycan evaluation in human serum samples. The reusable and dual potential response ECL biosensor endows a feasibility tool for clinical diagnosis and drug screening especially in complex biological systems.
