Abstract
Bladder cancer (BCa) is one of the common malignancies. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play regulatory roles in cancer progression. CircITGA7 is a circRNA generated from several exons of ITGA7. The potential role of circITGA7 in BCa remains unknown and needs to be explored. Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to assess circITGA7 and miR-330-3p expression in BCa tissues and cell lines. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the overall survival of these BCa patients. The biological function of circITGA7 was examined by overexpression of circITGA7 using CCK-8, EdU, wound-healing, and Transwell assays. Xenograft assay was performed to further validate the in vitro results. To explore the mechanism of circITGA7, luciferase reporter, RNA pull-down, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assays were employed to examine the binding interaction among circITGA7, miR-330-3p and kruppel-like factor 10 (KLF10). Western blot was used to study the protein levels of KLF10.CircITGA7 was downregulated in BCa tissues and cell lines and indicated longer overall survival. Moreover, circITGA7 restricted cell proliferation, migration and invasion of BCa through negatively regulating miR-330-3p. The in vivo model showed that circITGA7 influenced the tumor growth. Besides, the overexpression of miR-330-3p promoted cell progression by directly targeting KLF10. Mechanistically, circITGA7 inhibited BCa progression by activating KLF10 via targeting miR-330-3p.CircITGA7 alleviates BCa cell progression via circITGA7/hsa-miR-330-3p/KLF10 axis, which may provide novel therapeutic targets for BCa.

Abstract
The clinical manifestations of bone metastases are diversified while many sites remain asymptomatic at early stage. As the early diagnosis method is not perfect and the early symptoms of tumor bone metastasis are not typical, bone metastasis is not easy to be detected. Therefore, the search for bone metastasis-related markers is effective for timely detection of tumor bone metastases and the development of drugs to inhibit bone metastases. As a result, bone metastases can only be diagnosed when symptoms are found, increasing the risk of developing skeletal-related event (SREs), which significantly impairs the patient's quality of life. Therefore, the early diagnosis of bone metastases is of great importance for the treatment and prognosis of cancer patients. Changes of bone metabolism indexes appear earlier in bone metastases, but the traditional biochemical indexes of bone metabolism lack of specificity and could be interfered by many factors, which limits their application in the study of bone metastases. Some new biomarkers of bone metastases have good diagnostic value, such as proteins, ncRNAs, circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Therefore, this study mainly reviewed the initial diagnostic biomarkers of bone metastases which were expected to provide references for the early detection of bone metastases.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are a group of small non‑coding RNAs that serve as post‑transcriptional gene modulators. miRNAs have been demonstrated to serve a pivotal role in carcinogenesis and the dysregulated expression of miRNAs is a well‑understood characteristic of cancer. In recent years, miR‑370 has been established as a key miRNA in various cancers. The expression of miR‑370 is dysregulated in various types of cancer and varies markedly across different tumor types. miR‑370 can regulate multiple biological processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, as well as cell cycle progression and cell stemness. Moreover, it has been reported that miR‑370 affects the response of tumor cells to anticancer treatments. Additionally, the expression of miR‑370 is modulated by multiple factors. The present review summarizes the role and mechanism of miR‑370 in tumors, and demonstrates its potential as a molecular marker for cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

Abstract
Background Accumulating articles demonstrate that circular RNAs play pivotal functions in tumorigenesis. However, the working mechanism of circ_0136666 in osteosarcoma (OS) progression remains to be further clarified. Methods Real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot assay were applied to determine RNA and protein expression, respectively. Cell proliferation was assessed by 5-Ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine assay and colony formation assay. Transwell assays were carried out to assess cell migration and invasion abilities. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze cell apoptosis. Cell glycolysis was evaluated by analyzing the uptake of glucose and the production of lactate using the corresponding kits. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and biotinylated RNA-pull down assay were performed to confirm the target interaction between microRNA-1244 (miR-1244) and circ_0136666 or centrosomal protein 55 (CEP55). Xenograft tumor model was utilized to explore the role of circ_0136666 in tumor growth in vivo. Results Circ_0136666 expression was prominently elevated in OS tissues and cell lines. Circ_0136666 absence restrained the proliferation, migration, invasion and glycolytic metabolism and promoted the apoptosis of OS cells. Circ_0136666 negatively regulated miR-1244 expression by binding to it in OS cells. MiR-1244 overexpression suppressed the malignant behaviors of OS cells. CEP55 was a target of miR-1244 in OS cells. Circ_0136666 positively regulated CEP55 expression partly by sequestering miR-1244 in OS cells. CEP55 overexpression largely reversed circ_0136666 silencing-mediated influences in OS cells. Circ_0136666 silencing significantly suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Conclusion Circ_0136666 silencing inhibited OS progression partly by targeting miR-1244/CEP55 signaling. Silencing circ_0136666 and CEP55 or restoring miR-1244 level might be a potential therapeutic strategy for OS.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia causes hypoxic injury and inflammation, and brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMVECs) dysfunction is an initial stage of blood-brain barrier disruption. Endothelial cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are involved in intercellular signal transduction. EVs contain a variety of RNAs, proteins, and metabolites. Circular RNA (circRNA) is a member of the non-coding RNA. The expression profile and potential function of circRNAs in BMVECs are unknown. Here, human BMVECs have undergone hypoxia or TNF-α induction, and the changes in circRNAs were measured by RNA sequencing. A total of 70 circRNAs showed differential expression, including 43 previously unrecorded circRNAs and 27 recorded circRNAs. Since astrocyte end-feet encircle endothelial cells, they are considered the main targets of the EVs from BMVEC. The miRNA sequence data and bioinformatics were used to predict the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks in astrocytes. The gene ontology (GO) analysis showed the main downstream targets of circRNAs are DNA transcription regulation and protein kinase-related signaling pathways. These results suggest that altering circRNAs may be a potential therapeutic target for cerebral ischemia induced hypoxic injury and inflammation.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is a prevalent malignant bone cancer. This study aimed to explore the biologic role and potential mechanism of circ_0003732 in osteosarcoma carcinogenesis. Quantitative real-time PCR was implemented to detect the RNA expression of circ_0003732, microRNA-377-3p (miR-377-3p) and cytoplasmic polyadenylation element-binding protein 1 (CPEB1). Cell proliferation was evaluated by cell counting kit-8 assay and colony formation assay. Transwell, wound healing and flow cytometry assays were employed to assess cell migration, invasion and apoptosis. In addition, the interaction between miR-377-3p and circ_0003732 or CPEB1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay. The protein expression was detected by western blot assay or immunohistochemistry assay. Xenograft tumor assay was performed to explore the regulation of circ_0003732 on osteosarcoma tumor growth in vivo. Circ_0003732 was upregulated in osteosarcoma tissues and cells. Knockdown of circ_0003732 suppressed osteosarcoma cell proliferation, migration, invasion and triggered cell apoptosis in vitro, as well as reduced osteosarcoma tumor growth in vivo. Meanwhile, miR-377-3p could bind to circ_0003732 and CPEB1 and miR-377-3p inhibitor could reverse the effects of circ_0003732 silence on osteosarcoma cell progression. Furthermore, CPEB1 overexpression could overturn the suppressive impacts of miR-377-3p on osteosarcoma progression. In addition, circ_0003732 silence restrained Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway via regulating miR-377-3p in osteosarcoma cells. Circ_0003732 might play a positive role in the malignant progression of osteosarcoma by regulating the miR-377-3p/CPEB1 axis and activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which might provide new insights for osteosarcoma therapy.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) refers to one of the most common tumors in male's genitourinary system. Emerging research has confirmed that circRNAs play an important role in the occurrence and development of tumors. However, the correlation between circular RNA circITGA7 and PCa still remains unclear. Here, the role of circITGA7 in PCa was explored and the underlying mechanism was investigated as well. The circRNA expression profiles in PCa and the paracancerous tissues were established by high-throughput sequencing. The expression levels of circITGA7 in PCa tissues and cells were detected by qRT-PCR. Cell Counting Kit-8, colony formation, EdU, and flow cytometry assays were used to detect the effects of circITGA7 on PCa cell proliferation. To further explore the underlying mechanisms, bioinformatics analysis on downstream target genes was carried out. RNA immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays were used to verify the direct relationship between miR-370-3p and circITGA7 or P21CIP1. The present results demonstrated that circITGA7 was downregulated in PCa tissues and cells. Gain- or loss-of-function assays showed that circITGA7 inhibited the proliferation of PCa cells in vivo and in vitro. Mechanically, circITGA7 served as a sponge for miR-370-3p, and miR-370-3p could target P21CIP1 in PCa cells. The inhibition of cell proliferation induced by circITGA7 could be reversed by transfecting miR-370-3p mimic. Collectively, our data indicated that circITGA7 played an important role in inhibiting tumor proliferation in PCa and might be a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are single-stranded RNAs generated from exons back-splicing from a single pre-mRNA, forming covalently closed loop structures which lack 5'-3'-polarity or polyadenylated tail. Ongoing research depicts that circRNAs play a pivotal role in tumorigenesis, tumor progression, metastatic potential and chemoresistance by regulating transcription, microRNA (miRNA) sponging, RNA-binding protein interactions, alternative splicing and to a lesser degree, protein coding. Sarcomas are rare malignant tumors stemming from mesenchymal cells. Due to their clinically insidious onset, they often present at advanced stage and their treatment may require aggressive chemotherapeutic or surgical options. This review is mainly focused on the regulatory functions of circRNAs on osteosarcoma progression and their potential role as biomarkers, an area which has prompted lately extensive research. The attributed oncogenic role of circRNAs on other mesenchymal tumors such as Kaposi Sarcoma (KS), Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) or Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs) is also described. The involvement of circRNAs on sarcoma oncogenesis and relevant emerging diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic applications are expected to gain more research interest in the future.
