Decoding the Complex Free Radical Cascade by a DNA Framework-Based Artificial DNA Encoder.
2021
DNA-based molecular communications (DMC) are critical for regulating biological networks to maintain stable organismic functions. However, the complicated, time-consuming information transmission process involved in genome-coded DMC and the limited, vulnerable decoding activity generally lead to communication impairment or failure, in response to external stimuli. Herein, we present a conceptually innovative DMC strategy mediated by the DNA framework-based artificial DNA encoder. With the free-radical cascade as a proof-of-concept study, the artificial DNA encoder shows active sensing and real-time actuation, in situ and broad free radical-decoding efficacy, as well as robust resistance to environmental noises. It can also block undesirable short to medium-range communications between free radicals and inflammatory networks, leading to a synergistic antiobesity effect. The artificial DNA encoder-based DMC may be generalized to other communication systems for a variety of applications.
