A Tumor-suppressive Molecular Axis EP300/circRERE/miR-6837-3p/MAVS Activates Type I IFN Pathway and Antitumor Immunity to Suppress Colorectal Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The oncogenic role of circular RNAs (circRNA) has been well studied in cancers including colorectal cancer. However, tumor-suppressive circRNAs and the mechanism through which they exert their antitumor effects remain largely unknown. We aim to find out the critical tumor-suppressive circRNAs and their possibility to serve as gene therapy targets.

Experimental design

circRNA sequencing, gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments, and transcriptomic analysis were performed to find tumor-suppressive and antitumor immunity effects of circRERE. Molecular biology experiments were conducted for mechanism exploration. Finally, we conducted adeno-associated virus (AAV) to deliver circRERE (circRERE-AAV) and evaluated circRERE-AAV alone and in combination with anti-PD-
