CircMYH9 promotes the mRNA stability of SPAG6 by recruiting EIF4A3 to facilitate the progression of breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: The incidence rate of breast cancer (BC) ranks first among female malignant tumors. Late-stage BC patients are at risk of death from distant metastasis. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play an important function in cancer development. This study looked at the role of circMYH9 in BC. The nude mouse tumor-bearing experiment was used to verify the role of circMYH9 in regulating BC tumor growth in mice. Gene expression and protein amount were tested by qRT-PCR, western blot, and IHC. The pathological changes in tumor tissues were analyzed by HE staining. Cell viability, proliferation, migration, and invasion were assessed using CCK8, colony formation assay, wound healing assay, and Transwell assay, respectively. The interactions between circMYH9, SPAG6, and EIF4A3 were analyzed by RIP assay. CircMYH9
