Cover Story: We have developed a novel amplification-free analytical platform to detect and quantify microRNA cancer biomarkers at concentration levels found in liquid biopsies and at approximately +/−20% accuracy across all concentrations. This platform uses total RNA isolated from the biospecimen as the microRNA source and the MinION nanopore device from Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) for sensing. Detection and quantification of the target microRNA are enabled by a complementary oligo probe enhanced with osmium tags. Copies of microRNA cancer biomarkers show approximate 1.8-fold overexpression, with no data overlap between healthy and cancer samples. Once microRNA copies are normalized to the same total RNA content, they appear independent of the biospecimen, suggesting that urine may replace blood withdrawal. View this paper
