An ultra-sensitive suboptimal protospacer adjacent motif enhanced rolling circle amplification assay based on CRISPR/Cas12a for detection of miR-183
IntroductionMicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been recognized as promising diagnostic biomarkers for Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) due to their notable upregulation in individuals with the condition. However, the development of highly sensitive miRNAs assays for the rapid diagnosis of DR in clinical settings remains a challenging task.MethodsIn this study, we introduce an enhanced CRISPR/Cas12a assay, leveraging suboptimal PAM (sPAM)-mediated Cas12a trans-cleavage in conjunction with rolling circle amplification (RCA). sPAM was found to perform better than canonical PAM (cPAM) in the detection of Cas12a-mediated ssDNA detection at low concentrations and was used instead of canonical PAM (cPAM) to mediate the detection. The parameters of reactions have also been optimized.Results and discussionIn comparison with cPAM, sPAM has higher sensitivity in the detection of ssDNA at concentrations lower than 10 pM by Cas12a. By replacing cPAM with sPAM in the padlock template of RCA, ultra-high sensitivity for miR-183 detection is achieved, with a detection limit of 0.40 aM. within 25 min and a linear range spanning from 1 aM. to 1 pM. Our assay also exhibits exceptional specificity in detecting miR-183 from other miRNAs. Furthermore, the applicability of our assay for the sensitive detection of miR-183 in clinical serum samples is also validated. This study introduces a groundbreaking assay with excellent performance through a simple modification, which not only addresses existing diagnostic challenges, but also opens exciting new avenues for clinical diagnosis in the realm of DR.
期刊介绍:
The translation of new discoveries in medicine to clinical routine has never been easy. During the second half of the last century, thanks to the progress in chemistry, biochemistry and pharmacology, we have seen the development and the application of a large number of drugs and devices aimed at the treatment of symptoms, blocking unwanted pathways and, in the case of infectious diseases, fighting the micro-organisms responsible. However, we are facing, today, a dramatic change in the therapeutic approach to pathologies and diseases. Indeed, the challenge of the present and the next decade is to fully restore the physiological status of the diseased organism and to completely regenerate tissue and organs when they are so seriously affected that treatments cannot be limited to the repression of symptoms or to the repair of damage. This is being made possible thanks to the major developments made in basic cell and molecular biology, including stem cell science, growth factor delivery, gene isolation and transfection, the advances in bioengineering and nanotechnology, including development of new biomaterials, biofabrication technologies and use of bioreactors, and the big improvements in diagnostic tools and imaging of cells, tissues and organs.
In today`s world, an enhancement of communication between multidisciplinary experts, together with the promotion of joint projects and close collaborations among scientists, engineers, industry people, regulatory agencies and physicians are absolute requirements for the success of any attempt to develop and clinically apply a new biological therapy or an innovative device involving the collective use of biomaterials, cells and/or bioactive molecules. “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” aspires to be a forum for all people involved in the process by bridging the gap too often existing between a discovery in the basic sciences and its clinical application.
