Abstract
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) released from solid tumors into the peripheral blood are valuable in assessing the risk of breast cancer metastasis and guiding precision therapy. This study proposes a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) strategy utilizing functionalized red blood cell membranes (RBCM-PPP) and CTCs membranes functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs@Mem) for the highly sensitive detection of CTCs. The RBCM-PPP was modified on the surface of the gold chip by sulfhydryl groups on DSPE-PEG-SH, and the ERBB2 protein expressed on the membrane surface of CTCs specifically bound to the ERBB2 palmitoylated polypeptide (PP) in the RBCM-PPP, while the AuNPs in AuNPs@Mem acted as signal amplifying molecules to achieve the sensitive detection of AuNPs@Mem. The constructed biosensor achieved a linear detection range of 5 × 103 to 1 × 106 particles/mL, with a detection limit as low as 868.11 particles/mL. This novel biosensing strategy possesses excellent selectivity, sensitivity, and stability, and offers potential applications for clinical CTCs detection.
