Cell-Free eccDNAs: A New Type of Nucleic Acid Component for Liquid Biopsy?
Molecular Diagnosis & Therapy 2018 October
Extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) are circular DNAs that are originated from chromosomes, but are independent from chromosomal DNA. The eccDNAs are commonly found in various tissues and cell types, and in both normal and diseased conditions. Due to their highly heterogeneous origins and being widely spread in nearly all eukaryotes, the eccDNAs are believed to reflect the genome's plasticity and instability. With the assistance of next-generation sequencing, more eccDNAs have been characterized at the molecular level. Recently, eccDNAs have been reported as cell-free DNAs in the circulation system. Importantly, these circulating eccDNAs have shown some evidence with disease associations, suggesting their potential utility as a new type of biomarker for disease detection, treatment assessment and progress surveillance. However, many challenges need to be addressed before implementing the eccDNAs as a new source of genetic material for liquid biopsy.
