Ethoxy-erianin phosphate inhibits angiogenesis in colorectal cancer by regulating the TMPO-AS1/miR-126-3p/PIK3R2 axis and inactivating the PI3k/AKT signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy, with increasing prevalence and mortality. How the ethoxy-erianin phosphate (EBTP) mediates CRC development remains unclear. Therefore, the current study evaluated the effects of EBTP on the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of CRC cells using CCK-8, Wound-healing, Transwell, and Tube formation assays. RNA sequencing and molecular docking techniques helped predict that EBTP could inhibit angiogenesis by regulating PIK3R2 expression while clarifying the mechanism behind EBTP-mediated CRC angiogenesis. Subsequently, several in vitro experiments indicated that PIK3R2 overexpression significantly improved the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of CRC cells while knocking down PIK3R2 expression inhibited their prolifer
