Abstract
Liquid biopsy has received increasing attention as a new disease detection modality because of its noninvasive, simple sampling, and reproducible assay advantages. Among the markers of liquid biopsy, extracellular vesicles (EVs) are considered as promising disease biomarkers because they contain a large amount of biological information and have a significant role in physiological activities. The emergence and progression of some of these diseases are associated with miRNAs carried by EVs (EV-miRNAs). Therefore, high-sensitive detection of EV-miRNAs is essential in clinical applications. A growing number of strategies, including biosensors, in situ detection methods, and microfluidics have been developed for the detection of EV-miRNA and have been applied in the diagnosis of diseases such as cancer. This review summarizes the probes, signal amplification, and detection methods for EV-miRNA detection, as well as the application of membrane fusion-based in situ detection and integrated microfluidic chips for EV-miRNA detection. The challenges of these materials and techniques in clinical diagnostic applications are also discussed.
期刊介绍:
Advanced NanoBiomed Research will provide an Open Access home for cutting-edge nanomedicine, bioengineering and biomaterials research aimed at improving human health. The journal will capture a broad spectrum of research from increasingly multi- and interdisciplinary fields of the traditional areas of biomedicine, bioengineering and health-related materials science as well as precision and personalized medicine, drug delivery, and artificial intelligence-driven health science.
The scope of Advanced NanoBiomed Research will cover the following key subject areas:
▪ Nanomedicine and nanotechnology, with applications in drug and gene delivery, diagnostics, theranostics, photothermal and photodynamic therapy and multimodal imaging.
▪ Biomaterials, including hydrogels, 2D materials, biopolymers, composites, biodegradable materials, biohybrids and biomimetics (such as artificial cells, exosomes and extracellular vesicles), as well as all organic and inorganic materials for biomedical applications.
▪ Biointerfaces, such as anti-microbial surfaces and coatings, as well as interfaces for cellular engineering, immunoengineering and 3D cell culture.
▪ Biofabrication including (bio)inks and technologies, towards generation of functional tissues and organs.
▪ Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, including scaffolds and scaffold-free approaches, for bone, ligament, muscle, skin, neural, cardiac tissue engineering and tissue vascularization.
▪ Devices for healthcare applications, disease modelling and treatment, such as diagnostics, lab-on-a-chip, organs-on-a-chip, bioMEMS, bioelectronics, wearables, actuators, soft robotics, and intelligent drug delivery systems.
with a strong focus on applications of these fields, from bench-to-bedside, for treatment of all diseases and disorders, such as infectious, autoimmune, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, neurological disorders and cancer; including pharmacology and toxicology studies.
