Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the expression of exosomal non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in the sera of patients with HCC versus control.

Methods: Firstly, Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to retrieve ncRNAs specific to HCC (hsamiRNA- 1298 and lncRNA-RP11-583F2.2). Afterwards, extraction and characterization of exosomes were performed. We measured the expression of the chosen exosomal RNAs by reverse transcriptase quantitative real-time PCR in sera of 60 patients with HCC, 42 patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) infection and 18 healthy normal volunteers.

Results: The exosomal ncRNAs [hsa-miRNA-1298, lncRNA-RP11-583F2.2] had better sensitivity and specificity than alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in HCC diagnosis.

Conclusion: The exosomal hsa-miRNA-1298, lncRNA-RP11-583F2.2 can be potential biomarkers for HCC diagnosis.

Keywords: Hepatocellular carcinoma, exosome, miRNA, lncRNA, diagnosis, chronic hepatitis C.
