Abstract

The molecular protonation profiles obtained by means of an organic electrochemical transistor, which is used for analysis of molecular products released by blood-derived cultures, contain a large amount of information The transistor is based on the conductive polymer PEDOT:PSS comprising super hydrophobic SU8 pillars positioned on the substrate to form a nonperiodic square lattice to measure the state of protonation on secretomes derived from liquid biopsies. In the extracellular space of cultured cells, the number of glycation products increase, driven both by a glycolysis metabolism and by a compromised function of the glutathione redox system. Glycation products are a consequence of the interaction of the reactive aldehydes and side glycolytic products with other molecules. As a result, the amount of the glycation products reflects the anti-oxidative cellular reserves, counteracting the reactive aldehyde production of which both the secretome protonation profile and cancer risk are related. The protonation profiles can be profitably exploited through the use of mathematical techniques and multivariate statistics. This study provides a novel chemometric approach for molecular analysis of protonation and discusses the possibility of constructing a predictive cancer risk model based on the exploration of data collected by conventional analysis techniques and novel nanotechnological devices.
