Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent and aggressive cancer that presents significant challenges for early detection. This study introduces the GlyExo-Capture method for isolating fucosylated extracellular vesicles (Fu-EVs) from serum. We analyze microRNA (miRNA) profiles from Fu-EVs in 88 HCC patients and 179 non-HCC controls using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and identify five miRNAs (hsa-let-7a, hsa-miR-21, hsa-miR-125a, hsa-miR-200a, and hsa-miR-150) as biomarkers for HCC diagnosis. The five-miRNA panel demonstrates exceptional HCC diagnostic performance, with a sensitivity of 0.90 and specificity of 0.92 in a combined cohort of 194 HCC and 412 non-HCC controls, significantly surpassing the performance of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin (DCP). Notably, the miRNA model achieves recall rates of 85.7% and 90.8% for stage 0 and stage A early-stage HCC, respectively, identifies 88.1% of AFP-negative HCC cases, and effectively differentiates HCC from other cancers. This study provides a high-throughput, rapid, and non-invasive approach for early HCC detection.

期刊介绍:
Cell Reports Medicine is an esteemed open-access journal by Cell Press that publishes groundbreaking research in translational and clinical biomedical sciences, influencing human health and medicine.
Our journal ensures wide visibility and accessibility, reaching scientists and clinicians across various medical disciplines. We publish original research that spans from intriguing human biology concepts to all aspects of clinical work. We encourage submissions that introduce innovative ideas, forging new paths in clinical research and practice. We also welcome studies that provide vital information, enhancing our understanding of current standards of care in diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. This encompasses translational studies, clinical trials (including long-term follow-ups), genomics, biomarker discovery, and technological advancements that contribute to diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare. Additionally, studies based on vertebrate model organisms are within the scope of the journal, as long as they directly relate to human health and disease.
