Expression profiles of circular RNAs in colon biopsies from Crohn's disease patients by microarray analysis.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in various diseases and serve as biomarkers. The present study aimed to investigate unique expression profiles of circRNAs in colon tissues of Crohn's disease (CD) and search novel biomarkers for the diagnosis.

Methods

Differentially expressed (DE) circRNAs in biopsies from four CD patients, four ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, and four healthy controls (HC) were screened by microarray. Hsa_circ_0062142 and hsa_circ_0001666 were verified in another expanded validation cohort. Bioinformatics analysis was applied to predict the function of two DE circRNAs. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the diagnostic value of CD.

Results

The top 10 upregulated circRNAs in CD compared with HC were hsa_circ_0000691, hsa_circ_0001666, hsa_circ_0004183, hsa_circ_0009024, hsa_circ RNA_405324, hsa_circ_0002003, hsa_circ_0085323, hsa_circ_0040994, hsa_circ_0062142, and hsa_circ_0048148; the top 10 downregulated circRNAs were hsa_circ_0049356, hsa_circ RNA_405443, hsa_circ RNA_403556, hsa_circ_0092328, hsa_circ_0003979, hsa_circ_0074491, hsa_circ_0023461, hsa_circ RNA_406237, hsa_circ_0034044, and hsa_circ RNA_400564 (fold change in descending order). The expression levels of hsa_circ_0001666 and hsa_circ_0062142 in CD were significantly higher than those in UC and HC (p < 0.01). ROC curves suggested the favorable diagnostic value of hsa_circ_0062142 and hsa_circ_0001666 (AUC = 0.803 and 0.858, respectively, p < 0.01). In silico analysis indicated that these circRNAs may be involved in the progress of CD.

Conclusion

Hsa_circ_0062142 and hsa_circ_0001666 may play critical roles in the pathogenesis and serve as potential biomarkers of CD.
