A novel immunodiagnosis panel for hepatocellular carcinoma based on bioinformatics and the autoantibody-antigen system.

ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignancy with a dismal survival rate. The novel autoantibodies panel may provide new insights for the diagnosis of HCC. Biomarkers screened by two methods (bioinformatics and the antigen-antibody system) were taken as candidate tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the corresponding autoantibodies in 888 samples of verification and validation cohorts. The verification cohort was used to verify the autoantibodies. Samples in the validation cohort were randomly divided into a train set and a test set with the ratio of 6:4. A diagnostic model was established by support vector machines within the train set. The test set further verified the model. Eleven TAAs were selected (AAGAB, C17orf75, CDC37L1, DUSP6, E
