<i>In situ</i> multiplex detection of serum exosomal microRNAs using an all-in-one biosensor for breast cancer diagnosis

Abstract

for exosomes by detecting three exosomal miRNAs (miR-21, miR-27a and miR-375), respectively. In contrast, there were no obvious correlations between fluorescence intensities and control MCF-10A exosome concentrations. Importantly, by testing multiple exosomal miRNAs using the biosensor in clinical serum samples, breast cancer patients can be effectively differentiated from healthy donors. Consequently, the developed biosensor demonstrates high potential as a routine bioassay for the multiplex quantification of exosomal miRNAs in clinical diagnosis.
