ABSTRACT: Background/aims
: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumor, and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are abnormally expressed in CRC. However, the function and underlying mechanism of circRNA pinin (circ-PNN; hsa_circ_0101802) in CRC remain unclear.Methods
: Exosomes were isolated from the plasma of CRC patients and identified by transmission electron microscopy and Western blotting. The RNA expression levels of circ-PNN, miR-1225-5p, and fibroblast growth factor 13 (FGF13) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cell proliferation was detected by Cell Counting K-8, colony formation, and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine assays. Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptosis and metastasis-related proteins was evaluated by Western blotting. The associations among circ-PNN, miR-1225-5p, and FGF13 were confirmed by dual-luciferase report assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. A xenograft model was used to verify the function of circ-PNN in tumor formation in vivo.Results
: circ-PNN expression was upregulated in plasmic exosomes derived from CRC patients. The expression of circ-PNN and FGF13 was upregulated, while miR-1225-5p expression was downregulated in CRC cells incubated with plasmic exosomes derived from CRC patients. Tumor-derived exosomes promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion but inhibited apoptosis of CRC cells. Moreover, the addition of tumor-derived exosomes partly reversed the inhibitory effect of circ-PNN knockdown on CRC tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Thus, circ-PNN acts as a sponge for miR-1225-5p to regulate FGF13 expression.Conclusions
: Tumor-derived exosomal circ-PNN promoted CRC progression through the regulation of the miR-1225-5p/FGF13 pathway, providing a potential therapeutic target for CRC.
