Electrochemical aptasensors as novel diagnostic tools have attracted sufficient research interest in biomedical sciences. In this review, recent leading trends about gold (Au) nanostructures based electrochemical aptasensors have been collected, reviewed, and compared. Here, the considered electrochemical aptasensors were categorized based on the analytes and diagnostic techniques. Pharmaceutical analytes and biomolecules were reviewed in a separate section consisting of a variety of antibiotics, analgesics, and other biomolecules. Various aptasensors have also measured toxins, ions, and hazardous chemicals, and the findings of them have also been reviewed. Many aptasensors have been designed to detect different disease biomarkers that will play an essential role in the future of early diagnosis of diseases. Pathogen microorganisms have been considered as the analyte in several designed electrochemical aptasensors in recent researches, and their results have been reviewed and discussed as another section. Important aspects considered in the review of the mentioned aptasensors were the type of analyte, features of the aptamer as the biorecognition element, type of Au nanostructures, diagnostic technique, diagnostic mechanism, detection range and the limit of detection (LOD). In the last section, an in-depth analysis has been provided based on the crucial features of all included aptasensors.
