Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression of circular RNA 102958 (circRNA_102958) in human gastric cancer tissues and its clinical significance.Methods:Thirty cancer tissues from gastric cancer patients in Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from September 2017 to March 2018 and their matched normal gastric mucosa tissue samples were collected. The relative expression of circRNA_102958 in the tissues was detected by fluorescence quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The relationship between the expression of circRNA_102958 in gastric cancer tissues and clinicopathological features was analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the efficacy of circRNA_102958 in the diagnosis of gastric cancer.Results:The relative expression of circRNA_102958 in gastric cancer tissues was higher than that in normal gastric mucosa tissues, and the difference was statistically significant (5.1±1.0 vs. 1.0±0.0, t = 4.045, P = 0.000 2). The relative expression of circRNA_102958 in gastric cancer tissues of patients with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was higher than that of patients with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ, and the difference was statistically significant (9.3±2.6 vs. 2.0±0.5, t = 2.302, P = 0.029). There was no statistical difference in the relative expression of circRNA_102958 among patients with different gender, age, the longest tumor diameter, tissue differentiation degree, and lymph node metastasis (all P > 0.05). ROC analysis showed that the sensitivity and specificity of circRNA_102958 in the diagnosis of gastric cancer were 74% and 61%, and the area under the curve was 0.74. Conclusions:circRNA_102958 is highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues, and its expression is related to the stage of gastric cancer, which may be related to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer. circRNA_102958 is expected to become a molecular marker for gastric cancer diagnosis.
