Abstract

Artificial urinary biomarker probes (AUBPs) have recently emerged as a new class of diagnostic tools. However, they are applicable only to the biomarkers with catalytic activities or high reactivities. Here, we present a general modular design of AUBPs, integrating an aptamer for target recognition, DNAzyme for triggerable signal transduction, and nanozyme as a urinary artificial biomarker. For proof-of-concept demonstration, we developed an AUBP that is specifically and sensitively responsive to circulating an amyloid-β oligomer (AβO). After the nanoprobe was injected into circulation, colorimetric urinalysis was conducted to infer the circulating level of AβO for early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This approach can unambiguously distinguish AD mice from healthy ones, achieving a low detection limit of ∼2.8 pg/mL. It is ∼67 times more sensitive than the conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, owing to the cascaded signal amplification enabled by DNAzyme activity, enrichment by renal filtration, and chromogenic reaction catalyzed by nanozyme.

适体- dnazyme -纳米酶构建的通用人工尿液生物标志物探针。
人工尿液生物标志物探针(aubp)是近年来出现的一类新的诊断工具。然而,它们仅适用于具有催化活性或高反应性的生物标志物。在这里,我们提出了aubp的通用模块化设计,整合了用于目标识别的适体,用于触发信号转导的DNAzyme和作为尿液人工生物标志物的纳米酶。为了验证概念,我们开发了一种AUBP,它对循环中的淀粉样蛋白-β低聚物(AβO)具有特异性和敏感性。将纳米探针注入血液循环后,进行尿比色分析,推断AβO的循环水平,用于阿尔茨海默病(AD)的早期诊断。该方法可以明确区分AD小鼠和健康小鼠,达到2.8 pg/mL的低检测限。由于DNAzyme活性的级联信号放大、肾滤过的富集和纳米酶催化的显色反应,它的灵敏度比传统的酶联免疫吸附法高67倍。
