Article Abstract

A highly sensitive immunoadsorption assay without traditional horseradish peroxidase for signal amplification was developed, utilizing a three-way DNA junction amplifier instead. The formation of a three-way DNA junction and release of trigger DNA with recycling was accomplished by toehold-mediated strand displacement. The fluorescent dye -methyl mesoporphyrin IX, with highly structure-specific binding affinity towards G-quadruplexes, was employed for label-free and simple signal output. High sensitivity was achieved for concentrations as low as 7.21 pg mL by targeting Staphylococcal enterotoxin B for detection, and its applicability was confirmed by a recovery study of precooked dishes.

Dynamic DNA nanotechnology creates programmable reaction networks and nanodevices by using DNA strands. The key reaction in dynamic DNA nanotechnology is the exchange of DNA strands between different molecular species, achieved through three- and four-way strand exchange reactions. While both reactions have been widely used, the four-way exchange reaction has traditionally been slower and less efficient than the three-way reaction.

Operant conditioning is a learning mechanism by which animals adapt to its external environment and past experiences. In the field of artificial intelligence, DNA strand displacement (DSD) technology has performed well in various aspects. Chemical reaction networks (CRNs) are constructed using stochastic DSD technology to study operant conditioning, and the simulation results are verified by Visual DSD software.

Background And Objectives: Biological age, reflecting the cumulative molecular and cellular damage such as telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations and mitochondrial dysfunction, may better capture age-related decline and Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk than chronological age. Most studies have focused on one measure of biological age and not investigated joint or interactive contributions to AD pathogenesis.

Methods: We estimated blood-derived telomere length (TL) via qPCR, epigenetic age (DNAm age) using the CausAge clock, and mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) from whole genome sequencing in 640 participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI; Age: 74.

Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are a category of protein-coding RNA, and their dysregulation is closely implicated in diverse cancers. Static DNA nanodevices have been engineered for the imaging and therapy, but they rely on the pre-assembly of DNA components and are limited by the low imaging contrast. Herein, we demonstrate the tumor microenvironment-responsive dynamic self-assembly of DNAzyme nanowires for high-contrast imaging of multiple mRNAs and chemotherapy.
