Identification of exosomal ceRNA networks as prognostic markers in clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Aggressive clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) has a bad prognosis. We seek new ccRCC biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment. We used exoRBase and The Cancer Genome Atlas Database to compare DEmRNAs, DEmiRNAs, DElncRNAs, and DEcircRNAs in ccRCC and normal renal tissues. CircRNAs and circRNAs targeting microRNAs (miRNAs) were anticipated and taken intersections, and several databases assessed the targeted link between common miRNAs and messenger RNAs (mRNAs). The Cancer Genome Atlas database was used to create a predictive mRNA signature that was validated in E-MTAB-1980. Finally, we examined competing endogenous RNA network miRNAs and long noncoding RNAs for ccRCC predictive biomarkers using overall survival analysis. We built the first competing endogenous RNA regulation network of circRNA-lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA and found that it substantially correlates with ccRCC prognosis. We unveiled ccRCC's posttranscriptional regulation mechanism in greater detail. Our findings identified novel biomarkers for ccRCC diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis.
