Frontiers of myopia research in the 21st century: A bibliometric analysis of the top 100 most influential articles in the field.

Myopia is the most common refractive error worldwide, contributing not only to visual impairment but also serving as a potential risk factor for various severe ocular diseases. Its impact on patients' quality of life and health is significant and imposes substantial socioeconomic burdens. In this study, we analyzed the top 100 most cited articles related to myopia published in the Web of Science Core Collection database from January 2000 to February 2024.

"One suction and one extrusion" mode-based wash-free platform for determination of breast cancer cell-derived exosomes.

A simple and wash-free POCT platform based on microcapillary was developed, using breast cancer cell-derived exosomes as a model. This method adopted the "one suction and one extrusion" mode. The hybridized complex of epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) aptamer and complementary DNA-horseradish peroxidase conjugate (CDNA-HRP) was pre-modified on the microcapillary's inner surface.

DNA-Encoded Bidirectional Regulation of the Peroxidase Activity of Pt Nanozymes for Bioanalysis.

Rational regulation of nanozyme activity can promote biochemical sensing by expanding sensing strategies and improving sensing performance, but the design of effective regulatory strategies remains a challenge. Herein, a rapid DNA-encoded strategy was developed for the efficient regulation of Pt nanozyme activity. Interestingly, we found that the catalytic activity of Pt nanozymes was sequence-dependent, and its peroxidase activity was significantly enhanced only in the presence of T-rich sequences.

One-step multiplex analysis of breast cancer exosomes using an electrochemical strategy assisted by gold nanoparticles.

Exosomes, as a non-invasive biomarker, perform an important role in breast cancer screening and prognosis monitoring. However, establishing a simple, sensitive, and reliable exosome analysis technique remains challenging. Herein, a one-step multiplex analysis electrochemical aptasensor based on a multi-probe recognition strategy was constructed to analyze breast cancer exosomes.

CIRC_0012535 CONTRIBUTES TO LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE-INDUCED FETAL LUNG FIBROBLAST APOPTOSIS AND INFLAMMATION TO REGULATE INFANTILE PNEUMONIA DEVELOPMENT BY MODULATING THE MIR-338-3P/IL6R SIGNALING.

Background: Infantile pneumonia is a respiratory infection disease, seriously threatening the life of neonatal patients. Circular RNA (circRNA) dysregulation is reported to be involved in pneumonia pathogenesis. Circ_0012535 was previously displayed to be upregulated in blood samples of patients with community-acquired pneumonia.

DNA Tetrahedron-Based Valency Controlled Signal Probes for Tunable Protein Detection.

Combined detection of multiple markers related to the same disease could improve the accuracy of disease diagnosis. However, the abundance levels of multiple markers of the same disease varied widely in real samples, making it difficult for the traditional detection method to meet the requirements of a wide detection range. Herein, three kinds of cardiac biomarkers, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), myoglobin (Myo), and C-reaction protein (CRP), which were from the pM level to the μM level in real samples, were selected as model targets.

Polymer-assisted Au@PDA nanoparticles lyophilized powder with high stability and low adsorption and its application in colorimetric biosensing.

Gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) has been widely used to develop label-free colorimetric biosensors. Since the lyophilization process of Au NPs might cause various stresses and lead to irreversible aggregation, Au NPs were usually preserved in an aqueous suspension, which was inconvenienced for transportation and storage. In addition, the potential adsorption interaction between target and Au NPs was often ignored, which may lead to false-signal for Au NPs based colorimetric strategy.

Microcapillary-based multicolor assay for quantitative and sensitive point-of-care testing of proteins.

A microcapillary-based multicolor assay was developed for proteins quantification in serum sample with the assistance of manual centrifugal platform. The proposed assay only required the operation of "one suction and one extrusion" to realize the target detection. Myoglobin (Myo), a biomarker in the early stage of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), was chosen as the model target.

The mechanisms of HSA@PDA/Fe nanocomposites with enhanced nanozyme activity and their application in intracellular HO detection.

Nanozymes have drawn increasing attention with their broad applications but most nanozymes lack enzyme-like molecular structures, resulting in weak selectivity and low activity. Bioinspired molecular assembly provides an extremely promising strategy to mimic natural enzyme processes and develop function enhanced architectures. Herein, a new bioinspired molecular assembly strategy based on human serum albumin@polydopamine/Fe nanocomposites (HSA@PDA/Fe NCs) was proposed, in which Fe(iii)/Fe(ii) were anchored on HSA supported on PDA.

Photothermal and fluorescent dual-mode assay based on the formation of polydopamine nanoparticles for accurate determination of organophosphate pesticides.

A photothermal and fluorescent dual-mode assay for sensitive organophosphate pesticides (Ops) determination is reported based on alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-inhibition-induced formation of polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles. In the presence of ALP, ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP) can be catalyzed to produce ascorbic acid (AA). AA can reduce MnO nanosheets, further inhibiting the oxidation of dopamine (DA).

DNA Hydrogelation-Enhanced Imaging Ellipsometry for Sensing Exosomal microRNAs with a Tunable Detection Range.

Conventional imaging ellipsometry-based biosensing faces the challenges of poor sensitivity and narrow dynamic range, especially for some small molecules such as microRNA. Given that detection of various exosomal miRNAs with tunable range could provide high-precision disease information and improve the accuracy of diagnosis, a sensitive imaging ellipsometry sensor was introduced to improve sensitivity with a tunable detection range by terminus-regulated DNA hydrogelation. Tetrahedron DNA probes with complementary sequence to the target miRNA were used as biorecognition elements to form DNA hydrogelation.
