In recent years, researchers have found a close relationship between microRNAs (miRNAs) and OSCC. In addition, miRNAs are highly stable in tissues and circulation, and are also considered potential biomarkers for cancer detection and prognosis. Among a variety of tools for miRNAs with low abundance, single red-emitting UCNP-based biosensors have attracted special interest due to their unique properties, including deep organizational penetration, weak radiation damage, and low autofluorescence. Additionally, the measurement of low-abundance analytes <em>via</em> enzyme-free signal amplification is also an effective means. Herein, by taking advantage of red-emitting UCNPs and an enzyme-toehold-mediated strand displacement cascade, a dual-signal amplification biosensor was constructed. The recycled miRNA can be regarded as a catalyst for the assembly of multiple H1/H2 duplexes, which promoted the response signal of augmented analyte expression. Moreover, the proposed biosensors improved the measurement accuracy <em>via</em> a dual-signal response to obviously avert false-positive signals. The proposed method was applied to measure miRNA-222 (a model analyte) in serum samples, and the results were similar to those of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), with spiked recoveries ranging from 91.2% to 101.7%.

However, intermolecular interactions of polymer molecules, <em>i.e.</em>, entanglements, particularly in concentrated solutions, result in relatively high electrolyte viscosities. Furthermore, the large size and limited mobility of polymers lead to slow diffusion and more sluggish heterogeneous electron transfer rates compared to quickly diffusing small molecules. Although a number of RAPs with varying electrolyte viscosities have been reported in the literature, the relation between the RAP structure and the hydrodynamic properties has not been thoroughly investigated. Herein, hyperbranched 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl (TEMPO)-based polymers intended for application as low-viscosity catholytes for RFBs are presented and the influence of the structure and the molar mass distribution on the hydrodynamic properties is investigated. A new synthesis approach for TEMPO-based polymers is established based on step-growth polymerization of a TEMPO-containing monomer using an aza-Michael addition followed by a postpolymerization modification to improve solubility in aqueous solutions. The compact structure of hyperbranched polymers was demonstrated using size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) with viscometric detection and the optimum molar mass was found based on the results of viscometric and crossover investigations. The resulting RAP revealed a viscosity of around 21 mPas at a concentration corresponding to around 1 M TEMPO-containing units, according to the calculated mass of the repeating unit, showing potential for high capacity polymer-based catholytes for RFBs. Nevertheless, possible partial deactivation of TEMPO units lowered the active TEMPO concentration of the hyperbranched RAPs. A faster diffusion and higher charge transfer rate were observed for the hyperbranched polymer compared to the previously reported linear polymers. However, in RFB tests, a poor performance was observed, which is attributed to the side reactions of the oxidized TEMPO moieties. Finally, pathways for overcoming the main remaining challenges, <em>i.e.</em>, high loss of material during dialysis as an indication of being prone to crossover, the partial deactivation of TEMPO moieties, and the subsequent side reactions under battery conditions, are suggested.</p>","PeriodicalId":102,"journal":{"name":"RSC Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2024/ra/d4ra03925d?page=search","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142447282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alpelisib (ALP) is a novel phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor recently approved for human receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, PIK3CA-mutated metastatic breast cancer in combination with fulvestrant. ALP has been the subject of only a limited number of preclinical <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo</em> studies using different chromatographic techniques. However, no research has been published on analyzing ALP using capillary electrophoresis (CE). The absence of pharmacopoeial monographs for ALP in both the European and United States Pharmacopoeias highlights the urgent need to develop a reliable analytical method for its quality control in both industry and regulatory authorities. In this work, we have developed a first-ever CE method for the determination of ALP in pharmaceutical dosage forms in just 1.4 minutes. This was achieved with a 25 mM borate buffer at pH 9.3, 30 kV separation voltage and 30 °C capillary temperature. The proposed method was validated according to the ICH guidelines regarding selectivity, linearity (<em>r</em> = 0.9988), precision (RSD &lt; 5.9%), accuracy (bias &lt; 3.0%) and robustness (RSD &lt; 3.2%). It was applied to the pharmaceutical dosage form of ALP and was shown to be suitable for the reliable determination of ALP. Furthermore, to demonstrate the applicability of the CE as an alternative technique to more commonly used HPLC in the analysis of drugs, cross-validation of CE and HPLC methods was performed.

The environmental impact of both methods was assessed using AGREE software and scores for CE and HPLC were calculated to be 0.74 and 0.51, respectively.
