The use of cancer biomarkers is emerging as one of the most promising strategies for early detection and management of cancer. Biosensors can provide advanced platforms for biomarker analysis with the advantages of being easy to use, inexpensive, rapid and offering multi-analyte testing capability. The intention of this article is to discuss recent advances and trends in affinity biosensors for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and even theragnosis. The different types of affinity biosensors will be reviewed in terms of molecular recognition element. Current challenges and trends for this technology will be also discussed, with a particular emphasis on recent developments in miRNA detection.

Abstract

The use of cancer biomarkers is emerging as one of the most promising strategies for early detection and management of cancer. Biosensors can provide advanced platforms for biomarker analysis with the advantages of being easy to use, inexpensive, rapid and offering multi-analyte testing capability. The intention of this article is to discuss recent advances and trends in affinity biosensors for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and even theragnosis. The different types of affinity biosensors will be reviewed in terms of molecular recognition element. Current challenges and trends for this technology will be also discussed, with a particular emphasis on recent developments in miRNA detection.
