Hybridization chain reaction (HCR)-based amplification strategies have shown excellent prospects of application in detection thanks to its non-enzymatic and isothermal features. For protein biomarker detection, most bioanalytical assays are dependent on antibodies or aptamers to provide specific recognition to allow single strand DNA (ssDNA) to initiate specific HCR to realize effective signal amp
