The role of long noncoding RNAs- (lncRNAs-) associated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in the field of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) biology is well established, but the involvement of lncRNAs competing interactions in the progression of liver cirrhosis to HCC is still unclear. We aimed to explore the differential expression profiles of lncRNAs, microRNAs (miRNA), and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to construct a functional ceRNA network in cirrhotic HCC. The lncRNA, miRNA, and mRNA expression datasets were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus and The Cancer Genome Atlas. Based on miRanda and TargetScan, the HCC-specific ceRNA network was constructed to illustrate the coexpression regulatory relationship of lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs. The potential prognostic indicators in the network were confirmed by survival analysis and validated by qRT-PCR. A total of 74 lncRNAs, 36 intersection miRNAs, and 949 mRNAs were differentially expressed in cirrhotic HCC samples compared with cirrhosis samples. We constructed a ceRNA network, including 47 lncRNAs, 35 miRNAs, and 168 mRNAs. Survival analysis demonstrated that 2 lncRNAs (EGOT and SERHL), 4 miRNAs, and 40 mRNAs were significantly associated with the overall survival of HCC patients. Two novel regulatory pathways, EGOT-miR-32-5p-XYLT2 axis and SERHL-miR-1269a/miR-193b-3p-BCL2L1/SYK/ARNT/CHST3/LPCAT1 axis, were built up and contribute to the underlying mechanism of HCC pathogenesis. The higher-expressed SERHL was associated with a higher risk of all-cause death. The expressions of SERHL-miR-1269a-BCL2L1 were significantly different using qRT-PCR in vitro studies. lncRNAs EGOT and SERHL might serve as effective prognostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets in cirrhotic HCC treatment.
