    Abstract The detection of lysine acetyltransferases is crucial for diagnosing and treating lung cancer, highlighting the necessity for highly efficient detection methods. We developed a portable, highly accurate, and sensitive technique using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) to determine the activity of the lysine acetyltransferase TIP60, employing a novel miniature electrochemical sensor. This approach involves a compact electrochemical cell, merely 3 mm in diameter, that holds solutions up to 50 μL, equipped with a conductive indium tin oxide working electrode. Uniquely, this system operates on a two-electrode model compatible with the FSCV, obviating the traditional requirement for a reference electrode. The system detects TIP60 activity through the continuous generation of CoA molecules that engage in reactions with Cu(II), thereby significantly improving the accuracy of the acetylation analysis. Remarkably, the detection limit achieved for TIP60 is notably low at 3.3 pg/mL (

    Abstract Functionalized with the Au-S bond, gold nanoflares have emerged as promising candidates for theranostics. However, the presence of intracellular abundantly biothiols compromises the conventional Au-S bond, leading to the unintended release of cargoes and associated side-effects on non-target cells. Additionally, the hypoxic microenvironment in diseased regions limits treatment efficacy, especially in photodynamic therapy. To address these challenges, high-fidelity photodynamic nanoflares constructed on Pt-coated gold nanoparticles (Au@Pt PDNF) were communicated to avoid false-positive therapeutic signals and side-effects caused by biothiol perturbation. Compared with conventional photodynamic gold nanoflares (AuNP PDNF), the Au@Pt PDNF were selectively activated by cancer biomarkers and exhibited high-fidelity phototheranostics while reducing side-effects. Furthermore, the ultrathin Pt-shell catalysis was confirmed to generate oxygen which alleviated hypoxia-related photodynamic resistance and enhanced the antitumor effect. This design might open a new venue to advance theranostics performance and is adaptable to other theranostic nanomaterials by simply adding a Pt shell.

    Abstract Triplex DNA switches are attractive allosteric tools for engineering smart nanodevices, but their poor triplex-forming capacity at physiological conditions limited the practical applications. To address this challenge, we proposed a low-entropy barrier design to facilitate triplex formation by introducing a hairpin duplex linker into the triplex motif, and the resulting triplex switch was termed as CTNS

    Abstract The substrates of oxidase are biologically essential substances that are closely associated with human physiological health. However, current biosensing methods suffer from tough recyclability and undesired denaturation of enzyme due to impurity interference. Herein, we have developed a visual and reusable biosensor for detecting substrate using glucose oxidase (GOx) as a model oxidase. GOx was immobilized onto gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) at -20 °C in one step without additional reagents. The resulting nano-enzyme generated coloimetric signals by coupling with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) using TMB as the substrate. Our results demonstrated that the immobilized GOx exhibited satisfactory sensitivity (0.68 μM) for glucose detection and higher inherent stability than free GOx under harsh conditions, enabling reliable detection of glucose in complex fluids (colored beverages and saliva). Furthermore, the nano-enzyme retained 80 % activity even after four cycles of catalytic oxidation. This strategy constructs a universal biosensor for substrates with nano-enzyme which rely only on intrinsic cysteine within the oxidase while avoiding functional handle modification.

    Abstract Mitophagy is the lysosome-dependent degradation of damaged and dysfunctional mitochondria, which is closely associated with H₂O₂-related redox imbalance and pathological processes. However, development of fast-responding and highly sensitive reversible fluorescent probes for monitoring of mitochondrial H₂O₂ dynamics is still lacking. Herein, we report a reversible fluorescent probe (M-HP) that enables real-time imaging of H₂O₂-related redox imbalance. In vitro studies demonstrated that M-HP had a rapid response and high sensitivity to the H₂O₂/GSH redox cycle, with a detection limit of 17 nM for H₂O₂. M-HP was applied to imaging of H₂O₂ fluctuation in living cells with excellent reversibility and mitochondrial targeting. M-HP reveals an increase in mitochondrial H₂O₂ under lipopolysaccharide stimulation and a decrease in H₂O₂ following the combined treatment with rapamycin. This suggests that the level of oxidative stress is significantly suppressed after the enhancement of mitophagy. The rationally designed M-HP offers a powerful tool for understanding redox imbalance during mitophagy.

    Abstract Fluorescent probes have emerged as powerful tools for the detection of different analytes by virtue of structural tenability. However, the requirement of an excitation source largely hinders their applicability in point-of-care detection, as well as causing autofluorescence interference in complex samples. Herein, based on bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), we developed a reaction-based ratiometric bioluminescent platform, which allows the excitation-free detection of analytes. The platform has a modular design consisting of a NanoLuc-HaloTag fusion as an energy donor, to which a synthetic fluorescent probe is bioorthogonally labeled as recognition moiety and energy acceptor. Once activated by the target, the fluorescent probe can be excited by NanoLuc to generate a remarkable BRET signal, resulting in obvious color changes of luminescence, which can be easily recorded and quantitatively analyzed by a smartphone. As a proof of concept, a fluorescent probe for HOCl was synthesized to construct the bioluminescent system. Results demonstrated the system showed a constant blue/red emission ratio which is independent to the signal intensity, allowing the quantification of HOCl concentration with high sensitivity (limit of detection (LOD) = 13 nM) and accuracy. Given the universality, this reaction-based bioluminescent platform holds great potential for point-of-care and quantitative detection of reactive species.

    Abstract Heavy metal ions are considered to be the most serious sources for water pollution. Accurate detection of metal ions is important for pollution control and ecological protection. Background interference is an inevitable obstacle in the fluorescent analysis of complex samples.
