Ensuring food safety is paramount worldwide.Developing effective detection methods to ensure food safety can be challenging owing to trace hazards,long detection time,and resource-poor sites,in addition to the matrix effects of food.Personal glucose meter(PGM),a classic point-of-care testing device,possesses unique application advantages,demonstrating promise in food safety.Currently,many studies have used PGM-based biosensors and signal amplification technologies to achieve sensitive and specific detection of food hazards.Signal amplification technologies have the potential to greatly improve the analytical performance and integration of PGMs with biosensors,which is crucial for solving the challenges associated with the use of PGMs for food safety analysis.This review introduces the basic detection principle of a PGM-based sensing strategy,which consists of three key factors:target recog-nition,signal transduction,and signal output.Representative studies of existing PGM-based sensing strategies combined with various signal amplification technologies(nanomaterial-loaded multienzyme labeling,nucleic acid reaction,DNAzyme catalysis,responsive nanomaterial encapsulation,and others)in the field of food safety detection are reviewed.Future perspectives and potential opportunities and challenges associated with PGMs in the field of food safety are discussed.Despite the need for complex sample preparation and the lack of standardization in the field,using PGMs in combination with signal amplification technology shows promise as a rapid and cost-effective method for food safety hazard analysis.

OBJECTIVE To study in vitro inhibitory effects of realgar nanoparticles on breast cancer stem cells. METHODS Human breast cancer MCF- 7 parent cells were selected as subjects and cultured by serum-free culture to obtain breast cancer stem cells. Using adriamycin （1 mg/L）as positive control ，same concentration of water-processed realgar as reference ，the effects of realgar nanoparticles on the proliferation of MCF- 7 parent cells and stem cells were detected by CCK- 8 method. The effects of realgar nanoparticles on the formation of mammosphere ，the ability of differentiation ，migration and invasion ，the proportion of CD44+/CD24－ subgroup in breast cancer stem cells were detected by mammosphere formation and differentiation experiment ， scratch experiment ，Transwell invasion experiment and flow cytometry. Western blot assay was used to detect the expression of proteins related to epithelial mesenchymal transformation pathway （E-cadherin and vimentin ） in breast cancer stem cells. RESULTS The survival rates of MCF- 7 parent cells and stem cells （except for breast cancer stem cells in both 1 mg/mL groups ）in 1，5，10，40，60，80 mg/L groups of water-processed realgar and realgar nanoparticles were significantly lower than blank control group（P＜0.01）. The number of mammosphere （＞20 stem cells ）in 1，2.5，5，10 mg/L groups of water-processed realgar and realgar nanoparticles was significantly lower than blank control group （P＜0.01）；the volume of mammosphere decreased and the differentiated adherent cells decreased ；the healing rate of wound ，relative invasion rate （except for water-processed realgar 1 mg/L group）and the proportion of CD 44+/CD24－ subgroup were significantly lower than blank control group （P＜0.01）. The expressions of E-cadherin in 2.5，10 mg/L groups of water-processed realgar and realgar nanoparticles was significantly higher than blank control group ，and the expressions of vimentin was significantly lower than those in blank control group （P＜0.01）. The above effects of realgar nanoparticles were generally better than those of water-processed realgar with the same mass concentration （P＜ 0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Compared with water-processed realgar with the same mass concentration ，realgar nanoparti cles can significantly inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer stem cells， the formulation and differential ability of mammo- sphere，and reduce the proportion of CD 44+/CD24－ subgroup. The effect may be associated with the inhibition of migration and invasion of breast cancer stem cells by inhibiting the expression of proteins related to epithelial mesenchymal transformation pathway.

Objective To study the effects of schisandrin B (Sch B) on the apoptosis of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and its mechanism. Methods Cell counting reagent (CCK-8) was used to detect the effect of Sch B on the survival rate of MDA-MB-231 cells. MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with Sch B (10, 20, 40 μmol/L) for 24 hours. The cell death was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI. The levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were detected by DCFA-DA fluorescent probe. Apoptosis and the expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress related proteins (Bcl-2、Bax、CHOP、GPR78、PERK、p-PERK、p-eIF2α、eIF2) were detected by Western blot. Results Compared with the blank group, the cell survival rate decreased significantly (P<0.01) with the increase of Sch B concentration, and its IC50 was 19.16 μmol/L. Compared with the control group, Sch B groups (10, 20, 40 μmol/L) inhibited cell clone formation in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). Sch B groups (10, 20, 40 μmol/L) induced apoptosis (P<0.05), significantly reduced the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and significantly increased the expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax (P<0.05). Sch B groups (10, 20, 40 μmol/L) significantly increased the level of intracellular ROS in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). Sch B groups (10, 20, 40 μmol/L) stimulated endoplasmic reticulum stress and increased the expressions of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins CHOP, GPR78 and p-eIF2α in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). Conclusion Sch B induces apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells through ROS mediated endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Objective Astrgaloside Ⅳ derivative (ASId) is one of Astragaloside Ⅳ (ASI) derivatives with higher water-solubility and may have more druggability than ASI. The present study aims at observing the effects of ASId on cardiovascular parameters in chronic heart failure in rats. Methods Using echocardiographic and haemodynamic measurements, the effects of ASId on congestive heart failure (CHF) induced by ligation of the left coronary artery in rats were investigated.ventricle (LV) pressure (dp/dt) in ASId treated groups were significantly increased. Both LV volumes in diastole and in systole were decreased significantly after ASId treatment, accompanied with a trend towards normalization of relative stress. ASId treatment also inhibited compensatory hypertrophy of depressed heart. Conclusion ASId could improve cardiac functions and inhibite compensatory hypertrophy and LV remodelling, which suggests the possibility of ASId as a new therapeutic drug for the treatment of CHF.
