Abstract
Studies have shown that the abnormal expression of circular RNA (circRNA) is inextricably linked to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently, hsa_circ_0000518 (circ_0000518) was discovered in many cancer progressions. However, its function in HCC is still unclear. Through GEO database analysis combined with gene expression detection of HCC related clinical samples and cell lines, we identified that circ_0000518 was abnormally overexpressed in HCC. Cell and animal model experiments jointly indicated that circ_0000518 can stimulate HCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion and suppress apoptosis. Furthermore, we also found that knocking down the circ_0000518 could inhibit the Warburg effect in HCC cells. Mechanistically, circ_0000518 was found to be primarily localized in the cytoplasm, and sponge hsa-miR-326 (miR-326) promoted integrin alpha 5 (ITGA5) expression. In addition, circ_0000518 could enhance the stability of HuR-mediated ITGA5 mRNA, thereby activating the Warburg effect. In conclusion, this study elucidated that circ_0000518 was a cancer-promoting circRNA, which could enhance ITGA5 expression through competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) and RNA Binding Protein (RBP) mechanisms, thus facilitating the development of HCC. It provides a meaningful diagnostic and therapeutic target for HCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study reported the function and mechanism of circ-0000512 in the progression of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). METHODS circ-0000512 expression in TNBC tissues and paired adjacent normal tissues and cells was examined by qRT-PCR. Moreover, circ-0000512 expression in TNBC cells was modulated by transfection. Thereafter, colony formation assay, Transwell assay and flow cytometry were conducted to observe cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis. TNBC cells were treated with cycloheximide and the protease inhibitor MG132. Later, ubiquitination assay was performed to detect programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) ubiquitination in TNBC cells. The T cell killing ability was assessed by the T cell-mediated tumor cell killing assay. IFNγ and IL-2 levels were detected by ELISA. The percentage of activated T cells was detected with a flow cytometer. In addition, dual luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay were carried out to evaluate the binding between two genes. In vivo study was conducted on mice. CD8+ T cells in xenograft tumors were detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS circ-0000512 was upregulated in patients with TNBC. circ-0000512 knockdown attenuated the proliferation and migration of TNBC cells and enhanced their apoptosis. circ-0000512 overexpression had opposite effects. circ-0000512 knockdown enhanced the PD-L1 protein ubiquitination in TNBC cells by inhibiting CMTM6. Meanwhile, circ-0000512 promoted CMTM6 expression by sponging miR-622. circ-0000512 knockdown increased the ratio of CD8+T cells and the lethality of T cells against TNBC cells. Besides, circ-0000512 knockdown inhibited the growth of TNBC cells in immunodeficient nude mice and normal immune mice and increased the ratio of CD8+T cells in xenograft tumors of normal immune mice. CONCLUSIONS circ-0000512 inhibited PD-L1 ubiquitination by sponging the miR-622/CMTM6 axis, thus promoting TNBC progression and immune escape.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer with insufficient options for therapy. In order to identify new targets and treatment modalities we searched the literature for circular RNAs (circRNAs) which mediate efficacy in TNBC-related in vivo preclinical models. In addition to 5 down-regulated circRNAs which modulate tumor-suppressive pathways, we identified 15 up-regulated circRNAs. Down- and up-regulated refers to expression in corresponding non-transformed cells and tissues. The up-regulated circRNAs comprise five transmembrane receptors and secreted proteins as targets, five transcription factors and transcription-associated targets, four cell-cycle related circRNAs and one involved in paclitaxel resistance. In this review article we discuss drug-discovery related aspects and modalities of therapeutic intervention. Down-regulated circRNAs can be reconstituted by re-expression of corresponding circRNAs in tumor cells or up-regulation of corresponding targets. Up-regulated circRNAs can be inhibited by small-interfering RNA (siRNA) or short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-based approaches or inhibition of the corresponding targets with small molecules or antibody-related moieties.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), as a subtype of breast tumors with aggressive nature, threatens the health of females across the globe. It's urgent to explore novel therapeutic targets for the improvement of TNBC treatments. Bioinformatics was used to identify circular RNA (circRNA) differentially expressed in TNBC tissues. The circular structure and expression in TNBC cells was subjected to analysis of quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and PCR-agarose gel electrophoresis. Functional experiments and qPCR assays were carried out to probe the biological functions of circ_0008784 and microRNA-506-3p (miR-506-3p). It was verified by the assays that circ_0008784 propels proliferation and inhibit apoptosis of TNBC cells; and miR-506-3p was found to suppress proliferation and facilitate apoptosis of TNBC cells. TOP/FOP-Flash reporter, luciferase reporter, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP), RNA pulldown and rescue assays were implemented for exploring the underlying mechanisms of circ_0008784. It was found that circ_0008784 regulates Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and augments TNBC cell progression via sponging miR-506-3p to modulate catenin beta 1 (CTNNB1). Circ_0008784 activates Wnt/β-catenin pathway to affect the proliferation and apoptosis of TNBC cells. Elucidating the mechanism of circ_0008784 underlying TNBC is of great significance to TNBC treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to explore the effect of circ_0008003 on the progression of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its underlying regulation mechanism. METHODS Expression of hsa_circ_0008003, miRNA (miR)-548I and karyopherin subunit α 4 (KPNA4) was examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cell viability and proliferation ability were detected by cell counting kit-8 assay and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine assay, respectively. Flow cytometry was performed to monitor cell apoptosis. Western blot assay was used to evaluate the protein levels of KPNA4, Bax, and Bcl-2. Cell migration and invasion were assessed by transwell assays. The targeted relationship between miR-548I and hsa_circ_0008003 or KPNA4 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. Furthermore, the role of hsa_circ_0008003 in vivo was investigated by xenograft assay. RESULTS Circ_0008003 expression was increased in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Circ_0008003 knockdown reduced cell viability, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, and caused apoptosis in NSCLC cells. Moreover, miR-548I was targeted by circ_0008003, and miR-548I knockdown reversed the influence of circ_0008003 silence on NSCLC progression. KPNA4 was targeted by miR-548I, and miR-548I overexpression suppressed cell viability, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, and promoted cell apoptosis via decreasing KPNA4. In addition, circ_0008003 regulated KPNA4 expression via miR-548I. Circ_0008003 knockdown decreased NSCLC cell growth in the xenograft model. CONCLUSION Circular RNA hsa_circ_0008003 promoted progression in NSCLC by sponging miR-548I and regulating KPNA4 expression, hinting that circ_0008003 participates in NSCLC pathogenesis.

Abstract
Cancer cells reprogram their metabolisms to achieve high energetic requirements and produce precursors that facilitate uncontrolled cell proliferation. Metabolic reprograming involves not only the dysregulation in glucose-metabolizing regulatory enzymes, but also the enzymes engaging in the lipid and amino acid metabolisms. Nevertheless, the underlying regulatory mechanisms of reprograming are not fully understood. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) as functional RNA molecules cannot translate into proteins, but they do play a regulatory role in gene expression. Moreover, ncRNAs have been demonstrated to be implicated in the metabolic modulations in breast cancer (BC) by regulating the metabolic-related enzymes. Here, we will focus on the regulatory involvement of ncRNAs (microRNA, circular RNA and long ncRNA) in BC metabolism, including glucose, lipid and glutamine metabolism. Investigation of this aspect may not only alter the approaches of BC diagnosis and prognosis, but may also open a new avenue in using ncRNA-based therapeutics for BC treatment by targeting different metabolic pathways.

Abstract
We aimed to explore the action of a circRNA produced by ring finger protein 10 (circ_RNF10; hsa_circ_0028899) in the malignant behaviors of breast cancer (BC) and to explore its potential action-of-mechanism. The levels of circ_RNF10, miR-942-5p and Golgi integral membrane protein 4 (GOLIM4) were measured through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blot, or immunohistochemistry, and the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) relationship among them was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Cell counting kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine, and colony formation assays, transwell assays, and flow cytometry were used to examine cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and apoptosis, respectively. Levels of proliferation and invasion-related markers were determined by western blot. Xenograft assay was performed to assess tumor growth. Circ_RNF10 level was significantly reduced in BC tissues and cells. Elevation of circ_RNF10 blocked BC cell proliferation, migration and invasion while promoted the apoptosis in vitro, companied with decreased PCNA and Twist1 and increased E-cadherin. Furthermore, upregulating circ_RNF10 delayed tumor growth of BC cells in nude mice. Mechanistically, circ_RNF10 acted as a ceRNA for miR-942-5p, and miR-942-5p could target GOLIM4. In addition, miR-942-5p overexpression reversed the influence of circ_RNF10 overexpression on BC progression. Furthermore, GOLIM4 silencing attenuated the inhibitory effect of miR-942-5p knockdown on BC progression. We found that circ_RNF10 suppressed BC malignant behavior by targeting miR-942-5p/GOLIM4 axis.

Abstract
Background/Aim Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the principal agent of cancer deaths globally. The goal of this study was to determine how circular RNA_0000518 (circ_0000518) regulates tumor progression. Materials/Methods. circ_0000518 was selected as a study target involved in NSCLC from GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) database. circ_0000518 level was gauged by qRT-PCR. It was confirmed as circRNA by actinomycin D inhibition and RNase R assay. Subcellular localization of circ_0000518 was identified by FISH. Cell function was determined by CCK-8, Transwell, and western blot. Glutamine metabolic factors were detected by ELISA. The target regulation relationship between genes was clarified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. In vivo models were established to evaluate the impact of circ_0000518 on tumor growth. Immunohistochemical staining for Ki67, vimentin, and E-cadherin was used to detect cell proliferation and metastasis, respectively. Results circ_0000518 expression was enhanced in NSCLC. si-circ_0000518 inhibited cell proliferation, invasion, and glutamine metabolism. circ_0000518 functioned as a molecular sponge for miR-330-3p, and inhibition of miR-330-3p in cells markedly reversed circ_0000518 interference-mediated antitumor effects. miR-330-3p interacted with 3′-UTR of SLC1A5. miR-330-3p inhibitor-mediated protumor effect was remarkably reversed in cells after the knockdown of SLC1A5. circ_0000518 knockdown reduced glutamine, glutamate, and α-KG by targeting miR-330-3p. Intertumoral injection of circ_0000518 shRNA adeno-associated virus effectively halted xenograft tumor growth. Conclusion The current study revealed that circ_0000518 may have a prooncogenic function in the formation and progression of NSCLC, which might be achieved through moderating the miR-330-3p/SLC1A5 axis.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are non-coding RNAs with covalently closed structures that modulate the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we explored whether circ_0008043 regulated the biological function of HCC cells. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect circ_0008043, microRNA (miR)-326, and RAB21 levels. Expression of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and vimentin was assessed using qPCR. Cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were evaluated using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, colony formation, and transwell assays. Xenograft tumors were used to evaluate cell growth in vivo. The interaction between miR-326 and circ_0008043 or RAB21 was assessed using dual-luciferase reporter analysis and RNA pull-down analysis. The data illustrated that circ_0008043 and RAB21 were highly expressed, while miR-326 was expressed at less levels in HCC tissues and cells. Interfering with circ_0008043 suppressed cellular proliferation, migration, invasion, and cell growth. Circ_0008043 was confirmed to be an miR-326 sponge that targets RAB21. Rescue experiments showed that inhibiting miR-326 abrogated the effect induced by knockdown of circ_0008043, and overexpressed RAB21 abolished the effect induced by miR-326 overexpression. In summary, silencing of circ_0008043 impeded HCC progression by regulating the miR-326/RAB21 axis. These data suggest that circ_0008043 may have clinical value in the treatment of HCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been recently proposed as hub molecules in various diseases, especially in tumours. We found that circRNAs derived from ribonuclease P RNA component H1 (RPPH1) were highly expressed in colorectal cancer (CRC) samples from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets. OBJECTIVE We sought to identify new circRNAs derived from RPPH1 and investigate their regulation of the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) and RNA binding protein (RBP) networks of CRC immune infiltration. METHODS The circRNA expression profiles miRNA and mRNA data were extracted from the GEO and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets, respectively. The differentially expressed (DE) RNAs were identified using R software and online server tools, and the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA and circRNA-protein networks were constructed using Cytoscape. The relationship between targeted genes and immune infiltration was identified using the GEPIA2 and TIMER2 online server tools. RESULTS A ceRNA network, including eight circRNAs, five miRNAs, and six mRNAs, was revealed. Moreover, a circRNA-protein network, including eight circRNAs and 49 proteins, was established. The targeted genes, ENOX1, NCAM1, SAMD4A, and ZC3H10, are closely related to CRC tumour-infiltrating macrophages. CONCLUSIONS We analysed the characteristics of circRNA from RPPH1 as competing for endogenous RNA binding miRNA or protein in CRC macrophage infiltration.

[PMID: 34829818 PMCID: PMC8615412 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines9111590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2021] [Revised: 10/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) and colon cancer (CRC) are the two most deadly cancers in the world. These cancers partly share the same genetic background and are partially regulated by the same genes. The outcomes of traditional chemoradiotherapy and surgery remain suboptimal, with high postoperative recurrence and a low survival rate. It is, therefore, urgent to innovate and improve the existing treatment measures. Many studies primarily reported that the microRNA (miRNA) sponge functions of circular RNA (circRNA) in BC and CRC have an indirect relationship between the circRNA–miRNA axis and malignant behaviors. With a covalent ring structure, circRNAs can regulate the expression of target genes in multiple ways, especially by acting as miRNA sponges. Therefore, this review mainly focuses on the roles of circRNAs as miRNA sponges in BC and CRC based on studies over the last three years, thus providing a theoretical reference for finding new therapeutic targets in the future.

Abstract
Among cancers, breast cancer has the highest incidence rate among women and poses a tremendous threat to women's health. Messenger RNA (mRNA), microRNA (miRNA) and circular RNA (circRNA) play vital roles in the progression of breast cancer through a variety of biological effects and mechanisms. Recently, the regulatory network formed by circRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs has piqued attention and garnered interest. CircRNAs bind to miRNAs through a regulatory mechanism in which endogenous RNAs compete to indirectly regulate the expression of mRNA corresponding to downstream target genes of miRNAs, contributing to the progression of breast cancer. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA axis may be a marker for the early diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer and a potential breast cancer treatment target, providing unlimited possibilities for the development of breast cancer biomarkers and therapeutic strategies. This article reviews recent research progress on the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA axis as a regulatory network of competing endogenous RNAs in breast cancer. Herein, we focus on the mechanism and function of the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA axis in the occurrence and metastasis of breast cancer, and resistance to chemotherapy.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women worldwide. Circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of structurally stable non-coding RNA with a covalently closed circular structure. In recent years, with the development of high-throughput RNA sequencing, many circRNAs have been discovered and have proven to be clinically significant in the development and progression of breast cancer. Importantly, several regulators of circRNA biogenesis have been discovered. Here, we systematically summarize recent progress regarding the network of regulation governing the biogenesis, degradation, and distribution of circRNAs, and we comprehensively analyze the functions, mechanisms, and clinical significance of circRNA in breast cancer.

Abstract
Some circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been verified to act as essential regulators in the progression of breast cancer (BC). We aimed to investigate the role of circRNA trefoil factor 1 (circ-TFF1) in BC progression. The expression of circ-TFF1, microRNA-338-3p (miR-338-3p) and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) mRNA was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation was evaluated by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT), colony formation, and 5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EDU) assays. Cell apoptosis and invasion were assessed by flow cytometry and transwell assay, respectively. Cellular glycolysis, including glucose consumption, lactate production, and ATP/ADP ratio, was detected by commercial kits. All protein levels were measured by western blot assay. The relationship between miR-338-3p and circ-TFF1 or FGFR1 was predicted by online bioinformatics tool and verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Xenograft tumor model was established to verify the function of circ-TFF1 in vivo. Circ-TFF1 was overexpressed in BC tissues and cells. Circ-TFF1 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, invasion and glycolysis and induced apoptosis in BC cells. Circ-TFF1 acted as a sponge of miR-338-3p, and the effects of circ-TFF1 knockdown on BC cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and glycolysis were abolished by miR-338-3p inhibition. FGFR1 was confirmed to be a target gene of miR-338-3p, and miR-338-3p played a tumor-suppressive role in BC by targeting FGFR1. Moreover, circ-TFF1 regulated FGFR1 expression by targeting miR-338-3p. Additionally, circ-TFF1 knockdown hampered tumorigenesis in vivo. Circ-TFF1 knockdown suppressed BC progression by regulating miR-338-3p/FGFR1 axis, providing a promising therapeutic target for BC.

[PMID: 33895481 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2020] [Revised: 03/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/31/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been shown as important modulators in the pathogenesis of pediatric pneumonia. In this paper, we focused on the molecular basis of circRNA ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase core protein 2 (circ-UQCRC2, circ_0038467) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cell injury. METHODS Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to gauge the levels of circ-UQCRC2, microRNA (miR)-326 and programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) mRNA. PDCD4 protein expression and the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway were evaluated by western blot. Ribonuclease R (RNase R) assay was performed to assess the stability of circ-UQCRC2. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometry assays, respectively. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6 were measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Targeted relationship between miR-326 and circ-UQCRC2 or PDCD4 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. RESULTS Our data showed the up-regulation of circ-UQCRC2 level in pneumonia serum and LPS-treated MRC-5 cells. The silencing of circ-UQCRC2 attenuated LPS-induced MRC-5 cell injury. Mechanistically, circ-UQCRC2 directly targeted miR-326, and circ-UQCRC2 regulated PDCD4 expression through miR-326. MiR-326 was a downstream effector of circ-UQCRC2 function, and PDCD4 was a functional target of miR-326 in regulating LPS-induced MRC-5 cell injury. Additionally, circ-UQCRC2 knockdown inactivated the NF-κB signaling pathway by regulating the miR-326/PDCD4 axis. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrated a novel regulatory network, the miR-326/PDCD4/NF-κB pathway, for the function of circ-UQCRC2 in LPS-induced cell injury in MRC-5 cells.
