We aimed to identify differently expressed cytokines in plasma between clinical liver cirrhosis patients and asymptomatic HBV carriers as biomarkers for HCC prediction. Methods A total of 174 cytokines were assessed in plasma from 16 HBsAg carriers at different stages of liver cirrhosis using cytokine antibody microarrays. Ten promising cytokines were later evaluated in a case-control study including 49 HCC cases and 50 matched controls nested within a longitudinal cohort study of HBsAg carriers by using quantitative antibody arrays. Blood samples from each study subject were collected up to 16 years before diagnosis of HCC. Results Forty-five cytokines were differentially expressed among asymptomatic carriers, Child-Pugh stage A patients and Child-Pugh stage B/C patients (parametric P-value range: 0.0006-0.0487, empirical P-value range: 0.0003-0.0556, false-discovery rate q-value range=0.0713-0.1244). Evaluation of a subset of 10 cytokines, including ICAM-2, MCP-1, EGF, CXCL-16, IGFBP-2, sTNFRII, TIMP4, Fas, RANTES, and TIMP-1, by a nested case-control study showed that only plasma ICAM-2 levels were significantly different between HCC cases and controls at baseline (P-value for Wilcoxon sum rank test = 0.0413). Plasma ICAM-2 levels exhibited an accuracy (AUC=0.6208) comparable to HBV viral load (AUC=0.6022) and superior to serum ALT (AUC=0.5965) for prediction of HCC. Conclusion Results of this study suggested that ICAM-2 may serve as a promising noninvasive biomarker for prediction of HCC development.
