CircCDR1 sponges miR-1290 to regulate cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis in esophageal squamous cell cancer.

ABSTRACT: Since circCDR1 was abnormally expressed in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC), the current study explored whether circCDR1 affected ESCC. Detailedly, circCDR1 expression in ESCC and linear isoform and stability of circCDR1 were detected by RT-qPCR. The location of circCDR1 was detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). After transfection, the cell biological functions were detected by wound-healing, CCK-8, colony formation, and flow cytometry assays. The target of circCDR1 was predicted by bioinformatics, FISH, RNA pull-down, and dual-luciferase reporter assays. The correlation between circCDR1 and miR-1290 was analyzed by Pearson's correlation analysis. A subcutaneous-xenotransplant tumor model in BALB/c nude mice was established and the levels of circCDR1, miR-1290
