基于自阵列化表界面的复杂样品中细胞因子检测及疾病诊断新方法研究

The generation and secretion of cytokines in human body are closely related with disease development and progression, therefore the direct detection of cytokine concentration from blood, serum and body fluid samples has significant importance for disease diagnosis and evaluation of treatment efficiency. However, current detection strategies suffer from several limitations, such as the lack of sensitivity, the requirement of pretreatment, and the deficiency for real-time measurement. To solve these problems, here we propose to design a self-patterning microarray via click chemistry and photopolymerization, apply on-site polymer growth and nanomaterial synthesis for signal amplification, develop novel aptamer probes and perform real-time measurement based on their configuration changes, improve surface anti-fouling property by various hydrophilic polymer coatings, therefore achieve direct cytokine detection in complex samples without pretreatment process. In the meanwhile, we propose to study the mechanisms of immune reaction and signal transduction in micro size reaction areas, establish new principles and strategies for disease diagnosis based on cytokine secretion. This project will increase detection sensitivity and simplify operation process for cytokine detection and disease diagnosis, as well as provide new strategies for the fabrication of microarrays and functional interfaces, therefore would have broad application in bioanalysis and disease diagnosis.
