Abstract

MicroRNAs have been reported as related to multiple diseases and have potential applications in diagnosis and therapeutics. However, detection of miRNAs remains improvable, given their complexity, high cost, and low sensitivity as of currently. In this study, we attempt to build a novel platform that detects miRNAs at low cost and high efficacy. This detection system contains isothermal amplification, detecting and reporting process based on rolling circle amplification, CRISPR-Cas9, and split-horseradish peroxidase techniques. It is able to detect trace amount of miRNAs from samples with mere single-base specificity. Moreover, we demonstrated that such scheme can effectively detect target miRNAs in clinical serum samples and significantly distinguish patients of non-small cell lung cancer from healthy volunteers by detecting the previously reported biomarker: circulating let-7a. As the first to use CRISPR-Cas9 in miRNA detection, this method is a promising approach capable of being applied in screening, diagnosing, and prognosticating of multiple diseases.

CRISPR (general)

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) are DNA sequences in the genome that are recognized and cleaved by CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas). CRISPR-Cas system enables the editing of genes to create or correct mutations. Discover the latest research on CRISPR here.
