Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common and associated with a poor prognosis. The mutation profile related involved pathways of CRC have been, in broad terms, analyzed. main current therapeutic approaches been comprehensively reviewed here, future possible therapeu-tic options technologies perspectively presented. complex scenario represented by multiple-level resistance mechanism epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway, including mutations KRAS, NRAS, BRAF V600E, discussed. Examples engineered from literature along drug combination tested clinical trials are encouraging results observed latter (the BEACON trial), totally free chemotherapy, prompted authors to imagine nanotechnology-assisted approach for bypassing mechanisms, hopefully allowing, principle, complete biological remission.

Convenient and rapid detection of alpha fetoprotein (AFP) is vital for early diagnosis hepatocellular carcinoma. In this work, low-cost (0.22 USD single sensor) stable (during 6 days) electrochemical aptasensor was developed highly sensitive direct AFP in human serum with the assist vertically-ordered mesoporous silica films (VMSF). VMSF has silanol groups on surface regularly ordered nanopores, which could provide binding sites further functionalization recognition aptamer also confer sensor excellent anti-biofouling capacity. The sensing mechanism relies target AFP-controlled diffusion Fe(CN)63-/4- redox probe through nanochannels VMSF. resulting reduced responses are related to concentration, allowing linear determination a wide dynamic range low limit detection.
