Book Description

This book presents recent research on cancer detection methods based on nanobiosensors, which offer ultrasensitive point-of-care diagnosis. Several methods for diagnosing cancer have been discovered and many more are currently being developed. Conventional clinical approaches to detecting cancers are based on a biopsy followed by histopathology, or on the use of biomarkers (protein levels or nucleic acid content). Biopsy is the most widely used technique; however, it is an invasive technique and is not always applicable. Furthermore, biomarker-based detection cannot be relied on when the biomarkers are present in an extremely low concentration in the body fluids and in malignant tissues. Thus, in recent years highly sensitive and robust new cancer diagnosis techniques have been developed for clinical application, and may offer an alternative strategy for cancer diagnosis. As such, this book gathers the latest point-of-care cancer diagnostic methods and protocols based on biomedical sensors, microfluidics, and integrated systems engineering. It also discusses recent developments and diagnostics tests that can be conducted outside the laboratory in remote areas. These technologies include electrochemical sensors, paper-based microfluidics, and other kit-based diagnostic methods that can be adapted to bring cancer detection and diagnostics to more remote settings around the globe. Overall, the book provides students, researchers, and clinicians alike a comprehensive overview of interdisciplinary approaches to cancer diagnosis.

Book Description

Cancer is one of leading cause of deaths, and responsible for 8.2 million deaths worldwide. Especially, 70% of deaths from cancer occur in low or mid income countries. In order to deliver affordable and accessible cancer care to low income developing countries, it is critical to develop rapid, low cost, and highly accurate tools for cancer detection and treatment. Recently, liquid biopsy and circulating cancer biomarkers such as circulating tumor cells (CTC), extracellular vesicles (EV), and cell free DNA (cfDNA) have gained great attentions for early diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment monitoring of cancer patients because they can be accessed in less invasive approaches through body fluids while providing quantitative information about original tumors at low cost. To facilitate detection of circulating cancer biomarkers, we developed electromagnetic biosensing systems for rapid and quantitative molecular analysis. First, we report portable nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) system that detects cancer cells or proteins labelled with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). The developed NMR system could detect as low as 20 cancer cells in 5 uL samples. Second, we describe micro-Hall magnetometer that molecularly profiles single cancer cell with magnetic multiplexing. The micro-Hall magnetometer, which consisted of an array of 7 um x 7 um Hall sensors, showed its capability to differentiate magnetic particles with distinct magnetic moments. We applied this technology to molecular profiling of single ovarian cancer cell. Last, we introduce wirelessly powered electrochemical system that detect cancer specific EV and DNA. Using immuno-magnetic sandwich assay, we could enrich almost 100% of EVs from clinical specimens without ultracentrifugation and profile cancer specific transmembrane proteins from as low as 105 EVs. Also, we demonstrated PCR-free detection of single stranded DNA with in-vitro protein synthesis assay. These electromagnetic biosensors will be powerful tools to deliver more accessible and affordable cancer care to resource limited areas in developing countries.
