| Biological function: |
Potential noninvasive serum biomarker for HCC diagnosis; associated with clinicopathological factors and relapse-free survival analysis. |
| Molecular mechanism: |
Bioinformatics-based selection suggested involvement of the selected circRNA panel in Wnt signalling, IKK/NF-kappaB signaling, and cell proliferation; no experimental molecular mechanism was validated for this circRNA. |
| Biological pathway or process: |
Wnt/beta-catenin (other); NF-kappaB (other); proliferation (other) |
| Detected method: |
Q
|
| Validation methods: |
RNase R Treatment; RT-qPCR; Clinical Sample Validation; ROC Analysis; Survival Analysis; Bioinformatics Analysis |
| Clinical significance: |
Novel potential biomarker of high sensitivity and specificity for HCC diagnosis; serum expression associated with cirrhosis in the malignant group. |
| Description: |
hsa_circ_00156 was selected by bioinformatics as part of a serum circRNA biomarker panel and was validated by RT-qPCR in clinical serum samples. It was down-regulated in HCC and showed diagnostic biomarker potential, with expression associated with cirrhosis and relapse-free survival patterns. |
| Confidence score: |
