摘要
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are increasingly recognized as promising biomarkers for early disease diagnosis and prognosis. Therefore, the need for rapid, robust methods for multiplex miRNA detection in biological research and clinical diagnosis is crucial. This study introduces a novel multiplex miRNA detection method, SMOS-qPCR (Sensitive and Multiplexed One-Step RT-qPCR). The method integrates multiplexed reverse transcription and TaqMan-based qPCR into a single tube, employing a one-step operation on a real-time PCR system. We investigated the effect of 3′ end phosphorylation of the Linker, Linker concentration and probe concentration on the SMOS-qPCR, resulted in a wide linear range from 1 fM to 0.1 zM (R2 ≥ 0.99 for each miRNA), surpassing the capabilities of stem-loop RT-qPCR and SYBR Green One-step RT-qPCR. The method showed excellent performance in distinguishing mature miRNA from miRNA precursor, and successfully detected four miRNAs in a single tube without cross-interference. Its high specificity enables precise differentiation of less than 1% nonspecific signal. Finally, we demonstrated the effectiveness of the SMOS-qPCR system in detecting circulating miRNAs in serum samples, distinguishing between esophageal cancers and health individuals with high AUC values (>0.940). In conclusion, the proposed SMOS-qPCR system offers a straightforward and promising approach for miRNA profiling in future clinical applications.
