Abstract: DNAzyme-based signal amplification circuits promote the advances in low-abundant miRNA imaging in living cells. However, due to the insufficient cofactor in living cells and unsustainable target utilization, self-powered and self-feedback DNAzyme amplification circuits have rarely been achieved. Here, a MnO2 nanosheet-mediated self-powered and self-feedback entropy-driven catalyst (EDC)-DNAzyme nanoprobe (MnPFEDz) was demonstrated for sensitive imaging of intracellular microRNA (miRNA). In this strategy, MnPFEDz was formed by adsorbing EDC modules and substrate probes on MnO2 nanosheets. The MnO2 nanosheets acted not only as glutathione (GSH)-responsive nanocarriers for efficient delivery of DNA probes but also as a DNAzyme cofactor supplier to power the DNAzyme biocatalysis and promote signal transduction in a feedback way. When entering the cells, GSH could decompose MnO2 nanosheets to generate numerous Mn2+ ion cofactors, leading to the release of DNA probes. Subsequently, the target miRNA initiated EDC cycles to generate amplified fluorescence signals and exposed the complete DNAzyme. Meanwhile, each of the exposed DNAzyme then cleaved the substrate probes with the help of Mn2+ ion cofactors and released a new trigger analogue for the next round of EDC cycles, initiating additional fluorescence signals in a feedback way. As a multiple signal amplification strategy, the MnPFEDz nanoprobe facilitated the effective detection of intracellular molecules with enhanced sensitivity and provided a versatile strategy for the construction of self-powered and self-feedback DNA circuits in living cells.
