In this study, circRNAs were found to be differentially expressed in liver cancer tissues, with hsa_circ_0006091 showing elevated expression. The target gene of hsa_circ_0006091, RGS12, was also found to be upregulated in liver cancer tissues. ROC curve analysis demonstrated that hsa_circ_0006091, in combination with AFP and RGS12, can serve as a molecular marker for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable and extensively distributed non-coding RNA molecules that are differentially expressed in liver cancer tissues in the human body. In this study, we aimed to investigate circRNA as a novel candidate biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). For three groups of HCC and neighboring healthy tissues, the differentially expressed circRNAs were identified through high-throughput sequencing analysis. Reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were employed for the evaluation of circRNAs that show an elevated expression level in HCC. The obtained results revealed the significantly differential expression of hsa_circ_0006091 in HCC. Then we obtained their target genes through biological analysis, followed by verifying the underlined target genes, and the regulator of G-protein signaling 12 (RGS12) showed an elevated expression level in HCC tissues. Finally, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted on AFP, RGS12, and hsa_circ_0006091, and combined analysis was performed. Furthermore, hsa_circ_0006091 is a novel candidate biomarker for HCC and could improve the diagnostic strategies, prediction, and follow-up of HCC patients. The joint diagnosis of the hsa_circ_0006091&AFP and hsa_circ_0006091&RGS12 has diagnostic significance and can be used as a molecular marker for HCC diagnosis.
