Oxymatrine induces anti-tumor response in cervical cancer by modulating circ_0008460/miR-197-3p/ribonucleotide reductase subunit M2 (RRM2).

ABSTRACT: Oxymatrine (OMT) has exhibited an anti-cancer role in human cancers, including cervical cancer (CC). The dysregulated circular RNAs (circRNAs) are key regulators in cancer biology, and circ_0008460 was upregulated in CC. This study was performed to investigate the circRNA-based molecular mechanism for OMT in CC. RNA detection for circ_0008460, microRNA-197-3p (miR-197-3p), or ribonucleotide reductase subunit M2 (RRM2) was completed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay. Cell behaviors were assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay for cell viability, colony formation assay or Edu assay for cell proliferation, flow cytometry for cell apoptosis, and wound healing assay/transwell assay for migration/invasion. Protein expression examination was conducted using we
