Abstract

The overexpression of Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) protein is specifically related to tumor cell proliferation in breast cancers. Its presence in biological serum samples indicates presence or progression of cancer, becoming a promise biomarker. However, their detection needs a simple and high accuracy platform. In this study, we report the develop and optimization of a simple highly sensitive electrochemical platform for HER2. Gold electrode surface was modified with a self-assembled monolayer composed by DNA aptamer, 6-(ferrocenyl) hexanethiol and 6-mercapto-1-hexanethiol. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to quantify the changes in capacitance on the interface due to the presence ferrocene, whether acting as a redox charge or its behavior under different HER2 concentration in PBS and undiluted human serum. As a result, the approach allows detection of HER2 with a limit of detection of 3.61 pg/mL, 12.28 nF sensitivity per decade and a linear range from 1 pM to 1 [Formula: see text]M in serum. This electrochemical aptasensor can be applied to different arrays for aptamer screening and has a significant importance to interaction study of biological systems.

期刊介绍： Biomedical Microdevices: BioMEMS and Biomedical Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary periodical devoted to all aspects of research in the medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (BioMEMS) and nanotechnology for medicine and biology. General subjects of interest include the design, characterization, testing, modeling and clinical validation of microfabricated systems, and their integration on-chip and in larger functional units. The specific interests of the Journal include systems for neural stimulation and recording, bioseparation technologies such as nanofilters and electrophoretic equipment, miniaturized analytic and DNA identification systems, biosensors, and micro/nanotechnologies for cell and tissue research, tissue engineering, cell transplantation, and the controlled release of drugs and biological molecules. Contributions reporting on fundamental and applied investigations of the material science, biochemistry, and physics of biomedical microdevices and nanotechnology are encouraged. A non-exhaustive list of fields of interest includes: nanoparticle synthesis, characterization, and validation of therapeutic or imaging efficacy in animal models; biocompatibility; biochemical modification of microfabricated devices, with reference to non-specific protein adsorption, and the active immobilization and patterning of proteins on micro/nanofabricated surfaces; the dynamics of fluids in micro-and-nano-fabricated channels; the electromechanical and structural response of micro/nanofabricated systems; the interactions of microdevices with cells and tissues, including biocompatibility and biodegradation studies; variations in the characteristics of the systems as a function of the micro/nanofabrication parameters.
