    Abstract:
    MicroRNA-155 (miRNA-155) as a characteristic myeloma-associated biomarker exhibits significant potential application in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (MM). In this paper, a novel type of molecular beacon (MB)-functionalized monolayer MoS₂ nanosheet probe was proposed as fluorescent probe for high-sensitive assays of miRNA-155that uses a duplexspecificnuclease (DSN) enzyme to amplify the fluorescence signal. The preparation and detection conditions of the fluorescent probes were optimized in some aspects, such as the concentration of MoS₂ (0.80 μM) and DSN (0.2 U), and the incubation time of DSN (30 min). The probesexhibited a sensitive fluorescence response to miRNA-155 and the fluorescence signal of the assay was significantly amplified by the cleavage of DSN. The relationship between F/F0 and logC miRNA follows a linear calibration curve, and the limit of detection (LOD) of miRNA-155 in 10% human serum is calculated to be 10.96 fM based on this relationship. The good performance and fluorescence amplification effect of the fluorescent probe were confirmed by studying the recovery of miRNA-155 in 10% human serum, which was ranged from 98.32% to 106.3% with a relative standard deviation of less than 4.14%. Besides, the high expression of miRNA-155 in clinic blood of MM patients was sensitively distinguished from healthy peoples by using the proposed probes. The proposed novel fluorescent probe based on the DSN can be used to detect miRNA-155 in human serum and provide a potential, convenient and reliable tool for diagnosis of MM.
