Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent health condition characterized by gradual kidney function loss. Early detection is crucial for the effective management and treatment of CKD. A promising biomarker for various diseases, including chronic kidney disease, is microRNAs (miRNAs), which are becoming increasingly important due to their stability and differential expression in various disease-related states, including CKD. Recent developments in microRNA biosensors have made it possible to detect miRNAs associated with CKD in a sensitive and specific manner. This review article discusses the current state of microRNA biosensors for detecting CKD and highlights their potential applications in clinical settings. Various microRNA biosensors, including electrochemical, optical, and nanomaterial-based sensors, are explored for their ability to detect specific miRNAs linked to CKD progression. The advantages and limitations of these biosensors are evaluated, focusing on factors such as sensitivity, specificity, and ease of use. Overall, microRNA biosensors are promising diagnostic tools for early detection of CKD. However, challenges such as standardizing protocols, validating in large cohorts, and translating to clinical practice remain to be addressed. Future research efforts should aim to overcome these limitations to fully realize the potential of microRNA biosensors in improving the diagnosis and management of CKD.
期刊介绍:
The Official Journal of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC)
Clinica Chimica Acta is a high-quality journal which publishes original Research Communications in the field of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, defined as the diagnostic application of chemistry, biochemistry, immunochemistry, biochemical aspects of hematology, toxicology, and molecular biology to the study of human disease in body fluids and cells.
The objective of the journal is to publish novel information leading to a better understanding of biological mechanisms of human diseases, their prevention, diagnosis, and patient management. Reports of an applied clinical character are also welcome. Papers concerned with normal metabolic processes or with constituents of normal cells or body fluids, such as reports of experimental or clinical studies in animals, are only considered when they are clearly and directly relevant to human disease. Evaluation of commercial products have a low priority for publication, unless they are novel or represent a technological breakthrough. Studies dealing with effects of drugs and natural products and studies dealing with the redox status in various diseases are not within the journal''s scope. Development and evaluation of novel analytical methodologies where applicable to diagnostic clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, including point-of-care testing, and topics on laboratory management and informatics will also be considered. Studies focused on emerging diagnostic technologies and (big) data analysis procedures including digitalization, mobile Health, and artificial Intelligence applied to Laboratory Medicine are also of interest.
