Comprehensive Assessment of Serum hsa_circ_0070354 as a Novel Diagnostic and Predictive Biomarker in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: More and more studies have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play an essential role in the occurrence and development of tumors. Hence, they can be used as biomarkers to assist in diagnosing tumors. This study focuses on exploring the role of circular RNA (hsa_circ_0070354) in the diagnosis and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods: First of all, high-throughput sequencing was used to find the difference in the expression of circular RNA between NSCLC and adjacent tissues. The circRNAs with higher differences in expression were selected to verify their expressions in tissues, cells, and serum using qRT-PCR. Secondly, the hsa_circ_0070354 with a significant difference was chosen as the research goal, and the molecular properties were verified by agarose gel electrophoresis and Sanger sequencing, etc. Then, actinomycin D and repeated freeze-thaw were used to explore the stability and repeatability of hsa_circ_0070354. Finally, the expression of hsa_circ_0070354 in serum of 133 patients with NSCLC and 97 normal donors was detected, and its sensitivity, specificity, and prognosis as tumor markers were statistically analyzed. Results: Hsa_circ_0070354 was highly expressed in tissues, cells, and serum of NSCLC, and it has the characteristics of sensitivity, stability, and repeatability. The ROC curve indicates that hsa_circ_0070354 is superior to conventional tumor markers in detecting NSCLC, and the combined diagnosis is of more significance in the diagnosis. The high expression of hsa_circ_0070354 is closely related to the late-stage, poor differentiation of the tumor and the short survival time of the patients, which is an independent indicator of poor prognosis. Conclusion: Hsa_circ_0070354 is not only a novel sensitive index for the diagnosis of NSCLC but also a crucial marker for bad biological behavior.

Project description:BackgroundNon-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) often presents at later stages, typically associated with poor prognosis. Autophagy genes play a role in the progression of tumors. This study investigated the clinical relevance, prognostic value, and biological significance of RBBP4 in NSCLC.MethodsWe assessed RBBP4 expression using the GSE30219 and TCGA NSCLC datasets and NSCLC cells, exploring its links with clinical outcomes, tumor immunity, and autophagy genes through bioinformatics analysis after transcriptome sequencing of RBBP4-knockdown and control PC9 cells. We identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and conducted Gene Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment, and protein-protein interaction network analyses. The significance of autophagy-related DEGs was evaluated for diagnosis and prognosis using the GSE30219 dataset. Experiments both in vivo and in vitro explored the biological mechanisms behind RBBP4-mediated autophagic cell death in NSCLC.ResultsRBBP4 overexpression in NSCLC correlates with a poorer prognosis. Eighteen types of immune cell were significantly enriched in cultures that had low RBBP4 expression compared high expression. DEGs associated with RBBP4 are enriched in autophagy pathways. Transcriptomic profiling of the PC9 cell line identified autophagy-related DEGs associated with RBBP4 that exhibited differential expression in NSCLC, suggesting prognostic applications. In vitro experiments demonstrated that RBBP4 knockdown induced autophagy and apoptosis in PC9 cells, promoting cell death, which was inhibited by 3-MA. In vivo, targeted siRNA against RBBP4 significantly reduced tumor development in PC9 cell-injected nude mice, elevating autophagy-related protein levels and inducing apoptosis and necrosis in tumor tissues.ConclusionIn NSCLC, RBBP4 upregulation correlates with poor prognosis and altered immunity. Its knockdown induces autophagic cell death in NSCLC cells. These results indicate RBBP4 as a potential NSCLC diagnostic marker and its autophagy modulation as a prospective therapeutic target.
