Fig. 7. Upregulated plasma miR-486-5p is tumor derived and acts as a potential diagnostic biomarker of CRC.

a Plasma miR-486-5p was significantly higher in CRC patients than that in healthy individuals. b MiR-486-5p were significantly downregulated after operation. c MiR-486-5p expression levels in the medium of HT29 and SW480 cells increased with increasing cell counts and incubation time. d The diagnostic utility of plasma miR-486-5p in CRC analyzed by ROC curve. e The expression of exosomal miR-486-5p was remarkably lower in CRC cell lines than that in FHC. f Exosomal miR-486-5p expression was significantly higher in the medium of CRC cells than that in the medium of FHC. g Circulating exosomal miR-486-5p expression was statistically upregulated in CRC patients with various stages. h The diagnostic utility of circulating exosomal miR-486-5p in CRC analyzed by ROC curve. Data are represented as means ± S.D. from at least three independent experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
