Abstract

Exosomes are emerging as one of the most promising biomarkers for early disease diagnosis and prognosis. The significant challenges facing the available methods include improving the detection specificity and sensitivity in complex biological samples. Herein, a fluorescence assay was established based on a combination of immunomagnetic separation and a two-step signal amplification strategy for direct isolation and subsequent detection of exosomes. First, immunomagnetic beads capture and enrich the exosomes via antibody-antigen reactions. Second, bivalent cholesterol (BC) anchors spontaneously insert into the lipid bilayer of bead-captured exosomes, forming a "one to many" amplification effect. The simultaneous recognition of the surface protein and the lipid bilayer structure of the exosome significantly eliminates the interference risk from free proteins. The detection of exosomes converts to the detection of BC-anchors. Finally, the sticky end of the BC-anchor acts as the initiator to trigger the enzyme-free DNA circuits for secondary signal amplification. Under the optimal conditions, highly sensitive and selective detection of exosomes was achieved ranging from 5.5 × 10 to 1.1 × 10 particles/μL with a limit of detection of 1.29 × 10 particles/μL. Moreover, this method allows the isolation and quantitative analysis of exosomes in several biological fluids with satisfactory recovery rates (92.25-106.8%). Thus, this approach provides a sensitive, anti-interference platform for isolating and detecting exosomes.

摘要

外泌体作为最有前途的早期疾病诊断和预后生物标志物之一正在兴起。目前的方法面临的重大挑战包括提高复杂生物样本中检测的特异性和灵敏度。在此,建立了一种基于免疫磁分离和两步信号放大策略的荧光测定法,用于直接分离和随后检测外泌体。首先,免疫磁珠通过抗体-抗原反应捕获和富集外泌体。其次,二价胆固醇 (BC) 锚自动插入珠捕获的外泌体的脂质双层中,形成“一到多”的放大效应。对外泌体表面蛋白和脂质双层结构的同时识别显著消除了来自游离蛋白的干扰风险。对外泌体的检测转化为对 BC 锚的检测。最后,BC 锚的粘性末端充当引发剂,触发无酶 DNA 电路进行二次信号放大。在最佳条件下,实现了从 5.5×10 到 1.1×10 个颗粒/μL 的高灵敏度和选择性检测,检测限为 1.29×10 个颗粒/μL。此外,该方法允许在几种生物流体中进行外泌体的分离和定量分析,回收率令人满意(92.25-106.8%)。因此,该方法为分离和检测外泌体提供了一个灵敏、抗干扰的平台。
