Abstract

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent form of malignant tumour in the oral cavity and its early detection is critical for improving the prognosis of affected patients. The present study aimed to isolate and confirm exosomes derived from the supernatant of the OSCC cell line CAL‑27 and human oral epithelial cells (HOECs), analyze long non‑coding RNA (lncRNA) expression profiles and determine the diagnostic value based on bioinformatics analyses. The results indicated that the particles isolated from the supernatant of CAL‑27 and HOECs were either round or oval, had a size range of 30‑150 nm and were enriched with ALG‑2 interacting protein X (ALIX) and tumour susceptibility 101 proteins (TSG101). These characteristics confirmed that these particles were exosomes. Three lncRNAs (NR‑026892.1, NR‑126435.1 and NR‑036586.1) were selected as potential diagnostic biomarkers for OSCC. The expression levels of the selected lncRNAs were significantly different in CAL‑27‑exo vs. HOEC‑exo, as well as in whole cells (CAL‑27 vs. HOECs) (P<0.001). The expression levels of the three lncRNAs confirmed by quantitative PCR were consistent with the sequencing data. In conclusion, various lncRNAs were aberrantly expressed between cancerous and non‑cancerous exosomes, suggesting that they may serve as biomarkers for cancer
