ENPP-1 is a transmembrane enzyme involved in nucleotide metabolism, and its overexpression is associated with various cancers, making it a potential therapeutic target and biomarker for early tumor diagnosis. Current detection methods for ENPP-1 utilize a colorimetric probe, , which has significant limitations in sensitivity. Here, we present probe , the first nucleic acid-based chemiluminescent probe designed for rapid and highly sensitive detection of ENPP-1 activity.

Background: The metal oxide nanoparticles possess unique properties such as biological compatibility, superior reactivity, and capacity to develop reactive oxygen species, due to this they have drawn significant interest in cancer treatment. The various MONPs such as cerium oxide, Copper oxide, Iron oxide, Titanium dioxide, and Zinc oxide have been investigated for several types of cancers including brain, breast, cervical, colon, leukemia, liver, lung, melanoma, ovarian, and prostate cancers. However, traditional physiochemical synthetic methods for MONPs commonly include toxic materials, a major concern that raises questions regarding their biocompatibility and safety.
