Construction of a novel exosomes-related gene signature in hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Background: Exosomes are extracellular vesicles between 40 and 150 nm in diameter and are cargoes for a wide range of small biological molecules. Recent studies have reported that lncRNAs, miRNAs, circRNAs in serum exosomes may serve as biomarkers to predict hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prognosis. However, the prognostic values of exosomes-related mRNAs in HCC are still unclear. Methods: Data of HCC patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The serum exosome sequencing data of HCC patients and healthy individuals were obtained from the exobase database. Univariate cox regression analysis was used to identify prognostic exosomes-related genes. LASSO and multivariate cox regression analyses were applied to construct prognostic signature. Result
