Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Molecular Biology
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Aptazymes offer integrated recognition and amplification for efficient sensing.
  • Signal leakage can limit the application of traditional aptazymes.
  • Highly sensitive detection of amyloid-beta oligomers (AβO) is crucial for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel aptazyme for highly efficient and sensitive detection of AβO.
  • To overcome the limitation of signal leakage in conventional aptazyme assays.
  • To improve signal transduction and output efficiency in nucleic acid-based sensing.

Main Methods:

  • Integration of an AβO aptamer with a split multicomponent nucleic acid enzyme (MNAzyme).
  • Design of a split format where MNAzyme activation is triggered by target binding.
  • Systematic investigation of DNA probe influence on detection performance.

Main Results:

  • The split aptazyme format significantly reduced background signal.
  • The optimized aptazyme achieved a detection limit as low as 26.5 pM for AβO within 1 hour.
  • The method demonstrated stability in detecting targets in real biological samples.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed aptazyme system enables sensitive and efficient detection of AβO.
  • The split MNAzyme design effectively minimizes background noise and enhances signal output.
  • This approach holds promise for improved diagnostic tools for neurodegenerative diseases.
