A binding-triggered hybridization chain reaction cascade multi-site activated CRISPR/Cas12a signal amplification strategy for sensitive detection of α-synuclein.

Alpha-synuclein (α-syn) is closely related to the pathological process of Parkinson's disease (PD). Sensitive detection of α-syn is important for the early diagnosis and disease progression monitoring of PD. Herein, we report a binding-triggered hybridization chain reaction (HCR) cascade multi-site activated CRISPR/Cas12a signal amplification strategy for sensitive detection of α-syn.
