Abstract:
:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to be involved in different types of cancer, including gastric cancer. Although altered lncRNAs profiles have been observed in or around gastric cancer tissues, the diagnostic value of circulating lncRNAs in gastric cancer remains unclear. In the present study, a number of highly expressed lncRNAs, including uc001lsz, GACAT2, ABHD11-AS1, GACAT3, SUMP1P3, CHET1, TUG1, SNHG12, GAS5, PVT1, LINC00152, HOTAIR, CCAT1, H19, HULC and ZNFX1-AS1, were investigated as potential minimally invasive biomarkers for this tumor. Preliminary screening experiments revealed that ZNFX1-AS1 and HULC were differentially expressed in the plasma of gastric cancer patients and healthy control subjects. The study further examined the relative expression of ZNFX1-AS1 and HULC in the plasma of 50 matching preoperative and postoperative patients, 50 gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients, 50 gastritis/peptic ulcer patients and 50 healthy control subjects through reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The correlation of lncRNA relative expression with the general characteristics and clinicopathological factors was analyzed. It was observed that the levels of ZNFX1-AS1 and HULC in the plasma of preoperative patients were markedly higher compared with those in the plasma of GIST patients, gastritis/peptic ulcer patients and healthy control subjects, while no significant difference was detected among these three groups. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was also conducted to distinguish gastric cancer patients from healthy control subjects. The area under the curve was 0.85 and 0.65 for ZNFX1-AS1 and HULC, respectively. In conclusion, the results indicated that the lncRNAs ZNFX1-AS1 and HULC are promising in the clinical diagnosis of gastric cancer.
