N2 - Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, and it lacks special tumor markers. Exosomes, new noninvasive biomarkers, with the proteins on the exosome surface show potential for the diagnosis and prognosis of a tumor. However, assessing the variations of exosomal proteins still faces significant challenges. Herein, a magneto-mediated electrochemical sensor based on host-guest recognition has been developed for simultaneous analysis of breast cancer exosomal proteins. Magnetic beads (MB) modified with CD63 aptamer was first employed to capture exosomes. Silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) was modified with MUC1, HER2, EpCAM, and CEA aptamers for specific exosomal proteins identification, respectively, and functionalized with N-(2-((2-aminoethyl)disulfanyl)ethyl) ferrocene carboxamide (FcNHSSNH2) as the signal molecule. The sandwich structure (MB-exosomes-SiO2 NPs probe) was separated by a magnet, and N-(2-mercaptoethyl) ferrocene carboxamide (FcNHSH) was released to the supernatant by the addition of reductants (dithiothreitol, DTT) that break the disulfide bond of FcNHSSNH2. FcNHSH and the graphene oxide-cucurbit [7](GO-CB[7]) modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was employed to monitor the oxidation current signals. In this way, four tumor markers on different breast cancer cells (MCF-7, SK-BR-3, MDA-MB-231, and BT474) derived exosomes were sensitively detected. Furthermore, the present assay enabled accurate analysis of exosomes from breast cancer patients, suggesting the potential of exosome analysis in clinic diagnosis.
