Problems solved by technology

However, the use of fluorescent probes to detect HOCl has some limitations: (1) The probe’s ultra-high sensitivity to reactive oxygen species, such as superoxide anion radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and hydrogen peroxide, increases Risk, not conducive to long-term storage; (2) It is difficult for the probe to quantitatively measure the actual concentration of HOCl, because it is an intensity-based fluorescence output, which will cause artifacts due to bleaching, focus changes, laser intensity changes, and probe concentration; ( 3) Most fluorescent probes require complicated multi-step synthesis, and have some obvious disadvantages, such as low yield, susceptibility to probe concentration interference, background fluorescence, and insurmountable toxicity; (4) lack of stability in the presence of HOCl near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes, so near-infrared fluorescent probes are very rare

Embodiment 1

[0053] Embodiment 1: synthetic probe P1, P2 and Lock-In

[0054] The nucleic acid nanosensor of the present invention comprises three parts: a, probe 1 (P1), respectively constitute tetrahedral rigid nanostructure by five kinds of DNA single strands (S1, S2, S3, S4 and H1); b, probe 2 (P2), respectively composed of five DNA single strands (S1, S2, S3, S4 and H2) to form a tetrahedral rigid nanostructure, wherein H1 and H2 constitute two enzyme-free amplification reactions such as hybridization chain reaction (HCR). Unit; c, probe 3 (Lock-In), phosphorothioate-modified nucleic acid constitutes a lock chain (Lock), which can initiate a chain reaction of hybridization (In), wherein In is initially locked by Lock and cannot initiate HCR, When target myeloperoxidase is present, it catalyzes H 2 o 2 And chloride ions (Cl-) to produce hypochlorous acid (HOCl), the phosphorothioate chain breaks, and then releases In, which triggers H1 and H2 to undergo enzyme-free amplification reac...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nanomaterial synthesis and molecular detection, in particular to an isothermal nucleic acid amplification sensor for rapid detection of hypochlorous acid and myeloperoxidase mediated by DNA nanostructures. Background technique [0002] The pathological features of diseases are usually accompanied by the upregulation of certain biomarkers, such as ions, nucleic acids, small molecules and proteins. Detection tools with high sensitivity and strong compatibility are of great significance for the accurate diagnosis of diseases. However, the sensitivity, accuracy, and biosafety of probes remain challenges, which motivate researchers to explore more applicable materials and platforms to address these issues. Myeloperoxidase (myeloperoxidase, MPO), as a heme protease, mainly comes from polymorphonuclear neutrophils, and also exists in monocytes and macrophages. When the body is stimulated by inflammation and ph...
