Circular RNA UBAP2 facilitates the cisplatin resistance of triple-negative breast cancer via microRNA-300/anti-silencing function 1B histone chaperone/PI3K/AKT/mTOR axis.

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (CircRNAs) have attracted increasing attention in the diagnosis and treatment of human cancers. CircUBAP2 has been identified to promote the progression of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), but the function of circUBAP2 in the cisplatin (DDP) resistance of TNBC remains obscure. Our investigation showed that circUBAP2 was significantly upregulated in DDP-resistant TNBC and TNBC sensitivity to DDP could be enhanced by silencing of circUBAP2. Moreover, circUBAP2 was revealed to be a ceRNA for miR-300 to upregulate the expression of anti-silencing function 1B histone chaperone (ASF1B). The effect of circUBAP2/miR-300/ASF1B axis on DDP resistance of TNBC was evaluated by rescue experiments, which demonstrated that circUBAP2 inhibited TNBC sensitivity to DDP through miR-300/ASF
