Plasma-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Circular RNAs Serve as Biomarkers for Breast Cancer Diagnosis
Breast cancer is the second cause of cancer-associated death among women and seriously endangers women’s health. Therefore, early identification of breast cancer would be beneficial to women’s health. At present, circular RNA (circRNA) not only exists in the extracellular vesicles (EVs) in plasma, b...

Breast cancer is the second cause of cancer-associated death among women and seriously endangers women’s health. Therefore, early identification of breast cancer would be beneficial to women’s health. At present, circular RNA (circRNA) not only exists in the extracellular vesicles (EVs) in plasma, but also presents distinct patterns under different physiological and pathological conditions. Therefore, we assume that circRNA could be used for early diagnosis of breast cancer. Here, we developed classifiers for breast cancer diagnosis that relied on 259 samples, including 144 breast cancer patients and 115 controls. In the discovery stage, we compared the genome-wide long RNA profiles of EVs in patients with breast cancer (n=14) and benign breast (n=6). To further verify its potential in early diagnosis of breast cancer, we prospectively collected plasma samples from 259 individuals before treatment, including 144 breast cancer patients and 115 controls. Finally, we developed and verified the predictive classifies based on their circRNA expression profiles of plasma EVs by using multiple machine learning models. By comparing their circRNA profiles, we found 439 circRNAs with significantly different levels between cancer patients and controls. Considering the cost and practicability of the test, we selected 20 candidate circRNAs with elevated levels and detected their levels by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.
