Background technique
Primary carcinoma of liver is the malignant tumour of high incidence common in world wide, high lethality rate, wherein liver cell liver
Cancer (abbreviation liver cancer, Hepatocellular Carcinoma, HCC) accounts for 90% of primary carcinoma of liver or more.The World Health Organization
" the global cancer report 2014 " delivered points out that global liver cancer new cases ranked the 5th of malignant tumour in 2012, causes
Dead rate then occupies second, wherein the new hair and death of Chinese liver cancer account for about the half of global case.Have due to lacking
The screening means of effect cause the liver cancer patient of 60%-70% to be in advanced stage when diagnosing, miss radical excision chance.As it can be seen that
Early diagnosis, early treatment are to increase liver cancer patient survival rate, reduce the most effective approach of mortality of liver cancer.
The occurrence and development process of liver cancer be one multifactor, the multistage, multi-step process.Liver caused by any reason is hard
Change is the most common risk factor of liver cancer.In Asia, the hepatitis of chronic HBV (HBV) initiation, cirrhosis are to induce
The most important risk factors of liver cancer.Most liver cancer patients are with hepatitis and cirrhosis pathological change, hard after hepatitis, liver
After the change stage, final development is liver cancer, and people are referred to as " liver cancer trilogy ".It is estimated that Chinese hepatitis B carriers quantity
Nearly 1.2 hundred million, wherein 20% will develop into chronic hepatitis B patient, the chronic hepatitis B patient of 15%-40% then will be into
The development of one step is cirrhosis.Therefore, long term monitoring is carried out to liver cancer high risk population, discovery and early warning early liver cancer, are convenient for early
It determines targetedly individuation control prece, delays or even prevent the generation of liver cancer, be conducive to improve life in patients.
Clinically mainly pass through serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) detection or imageological examination screening liver cancer at present.Although AFP is
It is widely used in Hepatocarcinoma screening, but its sensibility for detecting liver cancer is not high enough: in the patient that clinical diagnosis goes out liver cancer, about 35-
The AFP level of 60% liver cancer patient is still below warning value (20ng/ml);Sensibility in subclinical carcinoma of liver is then only 14-
40%.Although the Image Examinations such as ultrasound, CT, MRI can be used as the supplement of AFP detection, since long term follow-up sieves
Then somewhat expensive is looked into, and the recall rate of these methods depends on tumor size and the experience of operator, thus is likely to occur mistake
The case where examining, failing to pinpoint a disease in diagnosis.Thus, it is found that new hypersensitivity, high specific, and hepatocarcinoma early diagnosis mark that is cheap and being easy to detect
Will object has important clinical meaning.
MicroRNA is a kind of endogenous small molecule non-coding RNA being widely present in eucaryote, length 18-24
A nucleotide (nt).MicroRNA inhibits the expression of target gene, regulating cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis etc. by post-transcriptional level
Vital movement plays a significant role in a variety of physiology such as embryonic development, organism metabolism, disease development and pathologic process.
In recent years, researcher detects microRNA in a variety of body fluid such as blood, saliva, urine, proposes circulation microRNA's
Concept.The humoral specimens such as blood are easily obtained, and clinic can have strong operability and traumatic small, and it is good to recycle microRNA stability,
Detection convenience, therefore, circulation microRNA have the potential as the non-invasive biomarker of the diseases such as tumour, are suitable for high-risk
Mass screening.
Recently research is pointed out, liver cancer patient has different circulation microRNA express spectras from non-liver cancer control.For example,
The level of miR-21, miR-122, miR-223 in liver cancer patient and HBV hepatitis serum is above Healthy People;And
Raised miR-21 is lowered after patient's resection in liver cancer patient blood plasma;Li et al. people passes through detection 513 individual serum
MicroRNA express spectra, it is determined that distinguish the sort merge of HBV hepatitis and Healthy People and liver cancer patient and Healthy People;
Zhou et al. has detected the level of nearly thousand parts of plasma specimen microRNA, finds by miR-122, miR-192, miR-21, miR-
The categorization module that 223, miR-26a, miR-27a and miR-801 etc. seven circulation microRNA are constituted, can distinguish liver cancer and institute
Have non-liver cancer group summation (including Healthy People, hepatitis, liver cirrhosis patient), and the liver cancer of diagnosable AFP negative.These researchs mention
Show potential of the circulation microRNA as diagnosing cancer of liver marker.
However about research of the microRNA as diagnosing cancer of liver marker is recycled, there are still following deficiencies at present: (1) big
Part research only picks the microRNA in liver cancer tissue expression imbalance of forefathers' report as candidate index, possibly can not
The case where objectively responding circulation microRNA comprehensively;(2) research sample size in part is few, lacks multicenter verifying;(3) control setting
It is not perfect, it is difficult to illustrate that determining marker is the special diagnosis marker of liver cancer.Therefore, it is still necessary being found to have at present
The hepatocarcinoma early diagnosis marker of clinical value, for the monitoring of liver cancer high risk population, thus the early stage microhepatia of early warning early
Cancer takes appropriate control measure convenient for clinician in time.
