Abstract

As a novel class of non-invasive biomarkers, exosome-carried proteins are essential in early detection and precise cancer diagnosis. In the study, we developed an electrochemical biosensor based on MXenes-Au NPs modification to assess the differential expression of EGFR, CEA, and EpCAM proteins of exosomes. This sensor has sensitively detected tumor biomarkers in the exosomes generated by various tumor cells (including A549, MCF-7, PC-3, and HeLa). Building a biosensor that can distinguish minute differences of proteins in various derived-from exosomes is crucial for addressing the issues with early and accurate cancer detection.
