The electrochemical detection characteristics of the layered TiCT material were enhanced by modifying its surface. TiCT is used as the Ti - F chemical bond weakens with increasing pH levels. TiCT is alkalinized by KOH, and F is substituted for - OH. The surface hydroxyl groups can be eliminated by intercalating K. This study elaborates on the hydrothermal production of vanadium-doped layered TiCT nanosheets intercalated with K. The development of a sensitive dopamine electrochemical sensor is outlined by intercalating a vanadium-doped multilayered K TiCT electrode. The chemical, surface, and structural composition of the synthesized electrode for dopamine detection was investigated and confirmed. The sensor exhibits a linear range (1-10 µM), a low detection limit (8.4 nM), and a high sensitivity of 2.746 µAµMcm under optimal electrochemical testing conditions. The sensor also demonstrates exceptional anti-interference capabilities and stability. The sensor was applied to detection of dopamine in (spiked) rat brains, human serum, and urine samples. This study introduces a novel approach by utilizing K intercalation of vanadium-doped TiCT-based electrochemical sensors and an innovative method for dopamine detection. The dopamine detection revealed the potential of (V0.05) K TiCT-GCE for practical application in pharmaceutical sample analysis.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are essential cell surface proteins involved in transducing extracellular signals into intracellular responses, regulating various physiological processes. This study validated the use of the Tango assay, a sensitive method for detecting GPCR activation, in Schneider 2 (S2) cells, focusing on the human Dopamine Receptor D4 (DRD4). Plasmids encoding the LexA-tagged human DRD4 receptor and a luciferase reporter were co-transfected into S2 cells and stimulated with dopamine.

Background: Neurodegenerative diseases (NGD) encompass a range of progressive neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), characterised by the gradual deterioration of neuronal structure and function. This degeneration manifests as cognitive decline, movement impairment, and dementia. Our focus in this investigation is on PD, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain, leading to motor disturbances.

Dopamine (DA) is an important catecholamine neurotransmitter and its abnormal concentration is closely related to diseases such as hypertension, Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia. Due to the advantages of high sensitivity and fast response for electrochemiluminescence (ECL), developing ECL sensors for detecting DA was very critical in clinical diagnosis. ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) was an effective signaling mechanism.

Ofloxacin is a commonly used quinolone antibiotic that is also used as a feed supplement in livestock production and in plant disease prevention and treatment. However, the excessive use and abuse of ofloxacin will accumulate along the food chain and endanger human health. Therefore, the development of a simple, rapid, and sensitive detection method for the determination of ofloxacin is critical.

The detection of biomarkers is crucial for assessing disease status and progression. Uric acid (UA), a common biomarker in body fluids, plays an important role in the diagnosis and monitoring of conditions such as hyperuricemia, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular disease. However, the low concentration of UA in non-invasive body fluids, combined with numerous interfering substances, makes its detection challenging.
