| Abstract | Real-time in situ detection of protease enzymes is crucial for early-stage cancer screening and cell signaling pathway study; however it is difficult to be realized using fluorescence or radioactive probes. Here we devise a hybrid optical probe by incorporating nanocrescent particle and peptides with artificial tag molecules. The peptides have high specificity to PSA, one of the most prominent prostate cancer markers, and a serine protease present in patients' seminal fluid and serum. The extrinsic Raman spectral signal from the tag molecules is enhanced by the nanocrescent and the signal is monitored as the indicator for the peptide digestion in nanomolar PSA concentration and femtoliter reaction volume. Sensitive detection of cancer-related serine protease activity of PSA proteins in low concentrations and small volumes of biofluid is critical to early cancer diagnosis, clinical staging, and therapy. The high reaction specificity of the peptide and the monitored extrinsic Raman signal also minimizes the false detection of other serine proteases and intrinsic Raman signal, which results in a high-fidelity and high-signal-to-noise-ratio cancer nanoprobe. Peptide-conjugated nanocrescents should also be applicable for measuring the intercellular and intracellular activity of other cancer-related proteases and protease activity profiling-enabled cancer cell identification |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
