These plasma exomiRNAs are directly or indirectly associated with acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 6 (ACSL6), EPH receptor B6 (EPHB6), growth arrest specific 5 (GAS5), GNAS antisense RNA 1 (Gnasas1), hepatocellular carcinoma upregulated EZH2-associated long non-coding RNA (HEIH), homeobox A11 (HOXA11), phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), resolvin D1, ribosomal protein S 15 (RPS15), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), vasohibin 1 (VASH1), and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA). This evidence concerns the gene VASH1 and hepatocellular carcinoma.
