Official title

Screening of Small Non-coding RNAs as an Auxiliary Diagnostic Biomarker for Gastric Cancer and Exploring Its Correlation With Prognostic Diagnosis

Overview

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the gastrointestinal system, especially in East Asia. A host of patients are diagnosed with GC at the late stage, leading to poor patient prognosis. Therefore, there is a strong demand to develop new biomarkers to detect this tumor early. Small non-coding RNA species include microRNA (miRNA), PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), etc. It has been demonstrated that small non-coding RNAs are involved in gastric cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, progression and survival. Hence, it is considered as an auxiliary diagnostic biomarker for gastric cancer.

Detailed description

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the gastrointestinal system, especially in East Asia. A host of patients are diagnosed with GC at the late stage, leading to poor patient prognosis. Therefore, there is a strong demand to develop new biomarkers to detect this tumor early.

Small non-coding RNA species include microRNA (miRNA), PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), etc. It has been demonstrated by previous scientific researches that small non-coding RNAs are involved in gastric cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, progression and survival. Hence, it is considered as a new biomarker panel for gastric cancer.

The purpose of the present clinical trail is to explore the correlation between small non-coding RNAs panel and early gastric cancer, and to elucidate the possibility of small non-coding RNAs panel as a biomarker for gastric cancer. Verify the experimental purpose by monitoring the relative quantification of small non-coding RNAs panel through high-throughput sequencing and qRT PCR technology.
