Mechanisms of circular RNA circ_0066147 on pancreatic cancer progression.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The purpose of the study was to explore the precise parts of circ_0066147 (circular RNA [circRNA] scm-like with four mbt domains 1, circSFMBT1) in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression.

Methods

Ribonuclease R assay was used to confirm the stability of circ_0066147. circ_0066147, miR-326 and E2F transcription factor 2 (E2F2) expression levels was detected by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction or Western blot. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion abilities were assessed by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide, flow cytometry, wound-healing and transwell assays, respectively. Targeted relationships among circ_0066147, miR-326 and E2F2 were verified by the dual-luciferase reporter or RNA pu
