An entropy-driven catalysis (EDC) strategy is appealing for amplified bioimaging of microRNAs in living cells; yet, complex operation procedures, lacking cell selectivity, and insufficient accuracy hamper its further applications. Here, we introduce an ingenious all-in-one DNA nanomachine (termed as AIO-EDN), which can be triggered by endogenous apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) to achieve tumor cell-selective dual-mode imaging microRNA. Compared with the traditional EDC strategy, integrated design AIO-EDN achieves autocatalytic signal amplification without extra fuel strands. Moreover, leverages APE1 overexpressed cancer cells activate reaction, which, however, exerts no target sensing activity normal cells. Combining fluorescence- surface-enhanced Raman scattering (FL/SERS) techniques, this exhibits significantly improved selectivity microRNA This study provides a new paradigm develop EDC-based platform shows great potential in-depth diagnosis high precision.
