Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the most lethal cancers around the world. Precision oncology will be crucial for further improving the prognosis of HCC patients. Compared with traditional bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables the transcriptomes of a great deal of individual cells assayed in an unbiased manner, showing the potential to deeply reveal tumor heterogeneity. In this study, based on the scRNA-seq results of primary neoplastic cells and paired normal liver cells from eight HCC patients, a new strategy of machine learning algorithms was applied to screen core biomarkers that distinguished HCC tumor tissues from the adjacent normal liver. Expression profiles of HCC cells and normal liver cells were first analyzed by maximum relevance minimum redundancy (mRMR) to get a top 50 signature gene feature. For further analysis, the incremental feature selection (IFS) method and leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV) were conducted to build an optimal classification model and to extract 21 potentially essential biomarkers for HCC cells. Our results provided new insights into HCC pathogenesis that might be valuable for HCC diagnosis and therapy.
