Abstract
Early detection is vital for prolonging 5-year survival for patients with gastric cancer (GC). Numerous studies indicate that circulating long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can be used to diagnose malignant tumours. This study aimed to investigate the capacity of novel lncRNAs for diagnosing GC. A lncRNA microarray assay was used to screen differentially expressed lncRNAs between plasma of patients with GC and healthy controls. Plasma samples from 100 patients with healthy controls were used to construct a multiple-gene panel. An additional 50 pairs of GC patients with healthy controls were used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the panel. Expression levels of lncRNAs were quantified through real-time polymerase chain reaction. The receiver operating characteristic curve and area under curve (AUC) were used to estimate the diagnostic capacity. We identified three lncRNAs, CTC-501O10.1, AC100830.4 and RP11-210K20.5 that were up-regulated in the plasma of GC patients with AUCs 0.724, 0.730 and 0.737, respectively (P < .01). Based on the logistic regression model, the combined AUC of the three lncRNAs was 0.764. The AUC of the panel was 0.700 in the validation cohort. These findings indicate that plasma lncRNAs can serve as potential biomarkers for detection of GC.Entities:

Figure 1Heatmap result of microarray analysis. Differentially expressed lncRNAs (P < .05) between the plasma samples from 4 patients with gastric cancer and 4 healthy controls
Figure 2The relative expression levels of lncRNAs in gastric cancer cell lines and culture media. A‐C, Quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (real‐time PCR) was used to measure the lncRNAs in gastric cells. β‐actin was used as normalization control. D‐F, The expression levels of the lncRNAs in culture media were measured using real‐time PCR. Data presented as fold change. Data are shown as mean ± SD, n = 3. *P < .05
Figure 3The relative expression levels of lncRNAs in plasma from patients with gastric cancer and healthy controls. A, The expression level of lncRNA CTC‐501O10.1 in plasma was higher in the gastric cancer group (P < .01). B, The expression level of lncRNA AC100830.4 in plasma was higher in the gastric cancer group (P < .01). C, The expression level of lncRNA RP11‐210K20.5 in plasma was higher in the gastric cancer group (P < .01)
Figure 4The AUC for each lncRNA in the training phase. The AUC for lncRNA CTC‐501O10.1, lncRNA AC100830.4 and lncRNA RP11‐210K20.5 was 0.724, 0.730 and 0.737, respectively. The combined AUC was 0.764 (P < .01)
Figure 5The AUC for the lncRNA panel in the validation phase. The AUC for the lncRNA panel was 0.700 (P < .01) in an independent cohort consisting of 50 patients with gastric cancer and 50 healthy controls
