EIF4A3-induced circ_0084615 contributes to the progression of colorectal cancer via miR-599/ONECUT2 pathway.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumor. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to take part in the progression of CRC. However, the functions of circ_0084615 in CRC development are still undefined. In this study, we aimed to explore the functions and underlying mechanisms of circ_0084615 in CRC.

Methods

qRT-PCR, western blot assay and IHC assay were utilized for the levels of circ_0084615, miR-599, ONECUT2 or EIF4A3. 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assay and colony formation assay were conducted for cell proliferation ability. Wound-healing assay and transwell assay were applied to evaluate cell migration and invasion. Tube formation assay was used to analyze angiogenesis ability. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay, RNA pull down assay and dual-
