Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a new class of noncoding RNAs. However, the expression profile and clinical significance of circRNAs in human gastric cancer is unclear. The global circRNA expression profile in human gastric cancer was measured by circRNA microarray. Hsa_circ_0014717, one of the most downregulated circRNAs in microarray, was selected as a targeted circRNA to explore its levels in gastric tissues and gastric juice. Freeze-thaw experiment and incubation experiment confirmed the stability of gastric juice circRNAs. A total of 308 circRNAs, including 107 (34.74%) upregulated and 201 (65.26%) downregulated circRNAs, were found significantly aberrantly expressed in gastric cancer tissues. The top ten upregulated in gastric cancer tissues were hsa_circ_0035445, hsa_circ_0003789, hsa_circ_0063809, hsa_circ_0074362, hsa_circ_0006282, hsa_circ_0011107, hsa_circ_0084606, hsa_circ_0005556, hsa_circ_0050547, and hsa_circ_0006470, while the top ten downregulated ones were hsa_circ_0007099, hsa_circ_0001897, hsa_circ_0007707, hsa_circ_0008832, hsa_circ_0001546, hsa_circ_0002089, hsa_circ_0004680, hsa_circ_0000154, hsa_circ_0004458, and hsa_circ_0008394. The hot-point chromosomes were chr1, chr2, chr3, chr9, and chr17. Hsa_circ_0014717 was significantly downregulated in 77.2% (74/96) gastric cancer tissues. Its levels in gastric cancer tissues were related to tumor stage (P = 0.037), distal metastasis (P = 0.048), tissue carcinoembryonic antigen (P = 0.001), and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 expression (P = 0.021). More importantly, hsa_circ_0014717 can stably exist in human gastric juice; and its nature meets the requirements of clinical detection. Our study uncovered the circRNA expression profile in human gastric cancer. Moreover, some circRNAs can stably exist in human body fluid, and has the potential to be used as novel biomarkers for the screening of high-risk gastric cancer patients.
