In this study, we used the Affymetrix HG-U133A version 2.0 GeneChips for identifying genes capabable of distinguishing cirrhotic liver tissues with and without hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by modeling the high-dimensional dataset using an L1 penalized logistic regression model, with error estimated using N-fold cross-validation. Genes identified by gene expression microarray included those that have important links to cancer development and progression, including VAMP2, DPP4, CALR, CACNA1C, and EGR1. In addition, the selected molecular markers in the multigenic gene expression classifier were subsequently validated using real-time PCR and an independently acquired gene expression microarray dataset downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus. The multigenetic classifier derived herein performed similarly or better that standard abdominal ultrasonography and serum alpha-fetoprotein, which are currently used for HCC surveillance. Since early HCC diagnosis increases survival by increasing access to therapeutic options, these molecular markers may prove useful for early diagnosis of HCC, especially if prospectively validated and translated into gene products that can be reproducibly and reliably tested non-invasively.
