Prostate cancer (PCa) remains one of the most prominent forms of cancer for men. Since the early 1990s, Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) has been a commonly recognized PCa-associated protein biomarker. However, PSA testing has been shown to lack in specificity and sensitivity when needed to diagnose, monitor and/or treat PCa patients successfully. One enhancement could include the simultaneous detection of multiple PCa-associated protein biomarkers alongside PSA, also known as multiplexing. If conventional methods such as the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) are used, multiplexed detection of such protein biomarkers can result in an increase in the required sample volume, in the complexity of the analytical procedures, and in adding to the cost. Using companion diagnostic devices such as biosensors, which can be portable and cost-effective with multiplexing capacities, may address these limitations. This review explores recent research for multiplexed PCa protein biomarker detection using optical and electrochemical biosensor platforms. Some of the novel and potential serum-based PCa protein biomarkers will be discussed in this review. In addition, this review discusses the importance of converting research protocols into multiplex point-of-care testing (xPOCT) devices to be used in near-patient settings, providing a more personalized approach to PCa patients' diagnostic, surveillance and treatment management.
前列腺癌(PCa)仍然是男性最常见的癌症形式之一。自 20 世纪 90 年代初以来,前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)一直是公认的与 PCa 相关的蛋白生物标志物。然而,PSA 检测在成功诊断、监测和/或治疗 PCa 患者时的特异性和敏感性不足。一种增强方法可以包括同时检测 PSA 以外的多种与 PCa 相关的蛋白生物标志物,也称为多重检测。如果使用传统方法,如酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA),则此类蛋白生物标志物的多重检测可能会导致所需样本量增加、分析程序复杂化以及成本增加。使用具有多重检测能力的便携式、具有成本效益的伴随诊断设备(如生物传感器)可能会解决这些限制。本综述探讨了使用光学和电化学生物传感器平台进行多重 PCa 蛋白生物标志物检测的最新研究。本综述将讨论一些新型和潜在的基于血清的 PCa 蛋白生物标志物。此外,本综述还讨论了将研究方案转化为用于患者附近环境的多点即时检测(xPOCT)设备的重要性,为 PCa 患者的诊断、监测和治疗管理提供更个性化的方法。
