Description

Liver cancer early detection based on miRNA (micro ribonucleic acid) feature marker
Technical Field
The invention relates to a liver cancer detection method based on miRNA (micro ribonucleic acid) characteristic markers and a corresponding kit for liver cancer detection, which can be used for screening liver cancer.
Background
Liver cancer is known as "the king of cancer", one of the most common malignant tumors. The new liver cancer patients in China occupy more than half of the world every year, the death rate is the second place in all malignant tumors, and the lives and the health of people are seriously threatened. Liver cancer is very hidden and has no obvious symptoms in early stage. About 80% of liver cancer patients have been diagnosed in the middle and late stages, the 5-year survival rate is almost zero, and the 5-year survival rate of early liver cancer patients can reach more than 60% after treatment. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are important means for fighting against liver cancer. Alpha Fetoprotein (AFP) is a serum marker and a common indicator for diagnosing liver cancer. However, the AFP detection sensitivity is low, and only 60% -70% of patients with early liver cancer have positive AFP value. Meanwhile, conventional imaging examinations such as B-mode ultrasonography and CT have difficulty in finding early liver cancer with a tumor diameter of less than 2cm or a density similar to the parenchyma of the liver. Therefore, early liver cancer diagnosis still faces higher false negative rate and missed diagnosis rate.
Therefore, the researchers of various countries have never stopped searching for new and better liver cancer markers. The ideal tumor marker needs to have higher specificity, and can distinguish liver cancer from cirrhosis, hepatitis, liver regeneration nodules and the like; meanwhile, the kit also needs higher sensitivity, can prompt diagnosis in early liver cancer, and has the characteristics of easy detection, repeatability and less invasion.
With the development and progress of science, a small invasive and high-sensitivity tumor diagnosis technology, namely Liquid biopsy (Liquid biopsy), is produced. The detection of circulating miRNA molecular markers is written in 2019 edition of Primary liver cancer diagnosis and treatment Standard, and is incorporated into early detection and diagnosis clinical application of liver cancer.
Micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA) is a single-stranded endogenous non-coding RNA with short length, is confirmed to be widely involved in regulating life activities such as cell growth and development, differentiation, apoptosis and the like, and can positively influence the occurrence and development of tumors. The research shows that human genes above about 1/3 are directly regulated by miRNA, and the biological effect is to suppress or degrade mRNA target transcription and translation into corresponding protein, thereby participating in the process of life activity. Among them, circulating, free miRNAs in peripheral blood are often stably present in blood in the form of nucleic acid, protein complexes, etc., and are resistant to repeated freezing and thawing and extreme pH environments. Thus, these factors determine their biological properties of being less susceptible to degradation. The role of miRNAs in the digestive system is related to development, aging, secretion, metabolism, viral infection, immune response, tumors, etc.
