Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGF-R2) is a marker of angiogenesis and metastasis of cancer. Two biosensors for the determination of VEGF-R2 in plasma have been developed. One of them is based on a pure gold chip, and the other on a silver/gold bimetallic chip; both have the receptor, monoclonal rabbit antibody specific for human VEGF-R2, attached to the chip via a cysteamine linker. The biosensor with the gold chip exhibits linearity of the analytical signal between 0.03 and 2 ng/mL, a precision of 1.4% and recovery between 99% and 102%. The biosensor with the bimetallic chip exhibits linearity between 0.03 and 1 ng/mL, a precision of 2.2% and recovery between 99% and 103%. Both biosensors tolerate a 1:100 excess of VEGF, VEGF-R1 and VEGF-R3. Both biosensors were validated by parallel determination of VEGF-R2 in 27 different plasma samples using the ELISA immunosensor assay, with very good agreement of the results. Thermodynamic parameters of the interaction of VEGF-R2 with the antibody were determined by QCM (Quartz Crystal Microbalance) and SPRi (Surface Plasmon Resonance imaging) measurements.
血管内皮生长因子受体 2(VEGF-R2)是癌症血管生成和转移的标志物。已经开发出两种用于测定血浆中 VEGF-R2 的生物传感器。其中一个基于纯金芯片,另一个基于银/金双金属芯片;两者都在芯片上附有受体,即针对人 VEGF-R2 的单克隆兔抗体,通过半胱氨酸接头连接到芯片上。金芯片生物传感器在 0.03 至 2ng/mL 之间表现出分析信号的线性,精度为 1.4%,回收率在 99%至 102%之间。双金属芯片生物传感器在 0.03 至 1ng/mL 之间表现出线性,精度为 2.2%,回收率在 99%至 103%之间。两种生物传感器都能耐受 VEGF、VEGF-R1 和 VEGF-R3 的 1:100 过量。两种生物传感器都通过使用 ELISA 免疫传感器测定法在 27 个不同的血浆样本中平行测定 VEGF-R2 进行了验证,结果非常吻合。通过 QCM(石英晶体微天平)和 SPRi(表面等离子体共振成像)测量确定了 VEGF-R2 与抗体相互作用的热力学参数。
