Simple yet Sensitive MicroRNA Detection Using Allosteric Probe-Initiated Triple Amplification and Cas13a/crRNA-Based Amplification Reaction

Key Points

• This research focuses on developing a sensitive method for detecting microRNAs, aiming to improve diagnostics for degenerative disc disease.
• Utilized allosteric probe-initiated triple amplification combined with Cas13a/crRNA-based amplification.
• Specific focus on overcoming challenges of low abundance and high sequence homology of microRNAs.
• The new detection method significantly improves sensitivity in identifying microRNAs related to degenerative disc disease.
• Demonstrated capability to detect low-abundance microRNAs effectively in clinical samples.
