Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of serum hsa_circRNA_0002980 and hsa_circRNA_104348 expression in the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of liver cancer patients.Methods From April 2020 to April 2022,a total of 105 liver cancer patients and 105 liver cirrhosis patients admitted in the hospital were selected as the liver cancer group and cirrhosis group,and another 105 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examinations in the hospital were selected as the control group.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR)was applied to detect the expression of serum hsa_circRNA_0002980 and hsa_circRNA_104348.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to evaluate the diagnostic value and prognostic val-ue of serum hsa_circRNA_0002980 and hsa_circRNA_104348 expression in liver cancer.Multivariate COX re-gression was performed to analyze the influencing factors of prognosis in liver cancer.Results The expression levels of serum hsa_circRNA_0002980 in the liver cancer group,liver cirrhosis group,and control group in-creased sequentially(P<0.05),while the expression levels of serum hsa_circRNA_104348 decreased sequen-tially(P<0.05).The levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in the liver cancer group and the liver cirrhosis group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05),and the level of al-bumin was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for the diagnosis of liver cancer by hsa_circRNA_0002980 combined with hsa_circRNA_104348 was 0.888(95%CI:0.838-0.928),which was obviously higher than those of hsa_circRNA_0002980(Z=3.526,P<0.001)and hsa_cir-cRNA_104348 alone(Z=2.184,P=0.029).The expression level of serum hsa_circRNA_0002980 in the poor prognosis group was lower than that in the good prognosis group(P<0.05),and the expression level of ser-um hsa_circRNA_104348 and the proportion of TNM stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ were higher than those in the good progno-sis group(P<0.05).The AUC for predicting prognosis in liver cancer patients by the combination of hsa_cir-cRNA_0002980 and hsa_circRNA_104348 was 0.870(95%CI:0.790-0.928),and there was no statistically significant difference compared to the AUC predicted separately by hsa_circRNA_0002980 and hsa_circRNA_104348(P>0.05).The expression of serum hsa_circRNA_0002980,hsa_circRNA_104348 and TNM stage were influencing factors for the prognosis of liver cancer patients(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression lev-el of hsa_circRNA_0002980 in the serum of liver cancer patients is relatively low,while the expression level of hsa_circRNA_104348 is relatively high.Both have certain clinical significance in the diagnosis and prognosis e-valuation of liver cancer.
