MicroRNA (miRNA) has become an important biomarker candidate for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. In this study, we have developed a novel fluorescence method for sensitive and specific miRNA detection via duplex specific nuclease (DSN) signal amplification and demonstrated its practical application in biological samples. Malachite green (MG) was employed as a "label-free" signal transducer since fluorescence of MG could be enhanced by 100-fold when MG were binding to a G-quadruplex structure formed within the d(G2T)13G sequence. The proposed signal amplification strategy is an integrated "biological circuit" designed to initiate a cascade of enzymatic reactions in order to detect, ... More
