Differential expression profile and diagnostic value of plasma exosomal circular RNA in hepatocellular carcinoma

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are recently found to be promising kind of biomarkers for tumors. However, plasma exosomal circRNAs in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is largely unknown. In this study, we report the application of next-generation sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of plasma exosome general transcriptome between 3 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma patients and 3 cases of healthy control. We obtained exosomes through ultrahigh-speed centrifugation techniques and verified exosomes through immunoblotting, NanoSight NS300(Malvern Panalytical, Malvern, UK) and JEM-1230 transmission electron microscope (TEM) (JEOL, Tokyo, Japan). And then, we find that there are 41 circRNAs that have differential expression. This study discovered the differences between hepatocellular carcinoma and healthy people preliminarily.

Project description:Background: Circular RNA (circRNA) has been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD), however, it is unclear whether circRNA carried by exosomes (exos) can be used as biomarkers for chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). This study aimed to investigate the expression pattern of exosomal circRNAs in the plasma of CCS patients, and to screen exo-circRNAs that can act as biomarkers for the diagnosis of CCS. Methods: High-throughput sequencing technology was carried out in the plasma exosomal RNA of 15 CCS patients and 15 non-cardiac chest pain patients (NCCP, control group) (sequencing cohort) to screen for differentially expressed circRNAs. Selected differentially expressed exo-circRNAs were further verified by real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in a small-sample cohort (derivation cohort) and a large-sample cohort (validation cohort). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of exo-circRNAs for CCS patients. Results: By high-throughput sequencing of circRNAs in 15 CCS patients and 15 NCCP patients, 276 circRNAs differentially expressed in plasma exosomes of CCS patients were screened by using |log2(Fold change) |>1 and q-value<0.001, and 103 were up-regulated and 173 were down-regulated. Among the 103 up-regulated circRNAs, 5 circRNAs with high expression levels and significantly increased in plasma exosomes of CCS patients were selected for validation. Twice RT-PCR validation demonstrated that exo-hsa_circ_0075269 and exo-hsa_circ_0000284 were significantly up-regulated in patients with CCS (P<0.001). Circulating exo-hsa_circ_0075269 and exo-hsa_circ_0000284 yielded the area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.761 (P<0.001, 95%CI=0.669, 0.852) and 0.623 (P=0.015, 95%CI=0.522, 0.724) for CCS, respectively by ROC curve analysis. Moreover, AUC of hsa_circ_0075269 combined with hsa_circ_0000284 for diagnosing CCS was 0.741 (P<0.001, 95%CI=0.667, 0.850). Conclusion: The expression profile of circRNA in plasma exosomes of patients with CCS was significantly different from that of the control group. Plasma exo-hsa_circ_0075269 and exo-hsa_circ_0000284 have the potential to be new biomarkers for CCS diagnosis.
