A new electrochemical aptasensor based on gold/nitrogen-doped carbon nano-onions for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus

Esmail Sohouli et al.

Summary: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a common bacterial pathogen that causes infections. A sensitive aptasensor was developed using carbon nano-onions, gold nanoparticles, and modified carbon electrodes for rapid detection of S. aureus. The aptasensor showed good repeatability and stability.

Whole genome sequencing of metastatic colorectal cancer reveals prior treatment effects and specific metastasis features

Pauline A. J. Mendelaar et al.

Summary: The genomic landscape of metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRC) shows distinct changes compared to primary CRC, influenced by prior treatments, and contains features with potential clinical relevance. Specific genes are associated with treatment response, such as LINC00672 mutations correlating with general response and FBXW7 mutations predicting poor response to EGFR-targeted treatment.

SARS-CoV-2 evolution during treatment of chronic infection

Steven A. Kemp et al.

Summary: Chronic infection with SARS-CoV-2 can lead to viral evolution and increased resistance to neutralizing antibodies in immunosuppressed individuals treated with convalescent plasma. During convalescent plasma therapy, there were significant shifts in the viral population structure and sensitivity, suggesting strong selection pressure on the virus during treatment.

Advances in Mutation Detection Using Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification

Marcelino Varona et al.

Summary: Detection of mutations and single-nucleotide polymorphisms is crucial for diagnostic applications, and Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a powerful tool for this purpose. However, traditional LAMP lacks the ability to distinguish single-nucleotide differences within target sequences. Various approaches have been developed to address this limitation, including primer design modifications and probe-based detection methods.

A tailored LNA clamping design principle: Efficient, economized, specific and ultrasensitive for the detection of point mutations

Hao Yang et al.

Summary: In this study, the introduction of locked nucleic acid (LNA) technology improved mutation detection methods, achieving high sensitivity and specificity for low-abundance mutations. By optimizing the design guidelines, the optimal amplification state for important mutation sites of the epidermal growth factor receptor was successfully verified.

Structure-based classification predicts drug response in EGFR-mutant NSCLC

Jacqulyne P. Robichaux et al.

Summary: The study characterized the mutational landscape in 16,715 patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC and established the structure-function relationship of EGFR mutations on drug sensitivity. EGFR mutations can be separated into four distinct subgroups based on sensitivity and structural changes, predicting patient outcomes following treatment with EGFR inhibitors better than traditional exon-based groups. This structure-based approach delineates functional groups of EGFR mutations that can effectively guide treatment choices and suggest potential improvement in prediction of drug sensitivity to targeted therapies in oncogenes with diverse mutations.
