Article Abstract
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been widely used in cancer diagnostics due to its specificity, sensitivity and high throughput. However, conventional ELISA is semiquantitative and has an insufficiently low detection limit for applications requiring ultrahigh sensitivity. In this study, we developed an α-hemolysin-nanopore-based ELISA for detecting cancer biomarkers. After forming the immuno-sandwich complex, peptide probes carrying enzymatic cleavage sites are introduced, where they interact with enzymes conjugated to the detection antibodies within the complex. These probes generate distinct current signatures when translocated through the nanopore after enzymatic cleavage, enabling precise biomarker quantification. This approach offers a low detection limit of up to 0.03 fg ml and the simultaneous detection of six biomarkers, including antigen and antibody biomarkers in blood samples. Overall, the nanopore-based ELISA demonstrates high sensitivity and multiplexing capability, making it suitable for next-generation diagnostic and point-of-care testing applications.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin disease that produces a variety of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1, YKL-40) significantly contributes to AD-associated inflammatory response and is highly expressed in patients with AD. Therefore, this study elucidated the effects and potential mechanisms of human YKL-40 antibody on AD-affected skin.

To compare the efficacy of using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) exosomes and injectable platelet rich fibrin (i-PRF) on the submandibular salivary glands (SMGs) of aged albino rats in restoring salivary gland structure and function. A total of 40 healthy male albino rats were used, two for obtaining the BM-MSCs, 10 for i-PRF preparation and seven adult rats (6-8 months old) represented the control group (Group 1). The remaining 21 rats were aged (18-20 months old) and divided into three groups of seven rats each; (Group 2): received no treatment, (Group 3): each rat received a single intraglandular injection of BM-MSC exosomes (50 μg/kg/dose suspended in 0.

This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of interferon (IFN)-λ1 and IFN-λ3 levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and plasma in non-neutropenic invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) patients. A total of 481 patients suspected of IPA were enrolled (169 IPA cases and 312 non-IPA cases) in this study. BALF and plasma samples were collected, and IFN-λ1 and IFN-λ3 levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Background: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits for BP180-NC16A use different cutoff levels established for cutaneous bullous pemphigoid (BP). However, in oral mucous membrane pemphigoid (OMMP), circulating antibodies are reported to be less readily detectable than cutaneous BP and there is little evidence that these cut-off levels are suitable for OMMP. This study was performed to explore whether the available cutoff values of anti-BP180-NC16A ELISA used for cutaneous BP are equally effective when applied to OMMP or should benefit from an optimized cut-off value.

Background: High % of low-voltage area (LVA), a surrogate of scar, is associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Noninvasive biomarkers of LVA are a medical need for PVI decision.
Objective: We aimed to identify the proteome profile of plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) associated with high % LVA, their cellular origin, and their regulation by hyperglycemia.
