Circ_0075960 targets the miR-202-5p/CTNND1 axis to promote the growth and migration of endometrial carcinoma cells via regulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling activity.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the female reproductive tract, involving multiple molecular alterations. Circular RNA (circRNA) dysregulation is frequently observed in EC tissues, suggesting the involvement of circRNA in EC development. We aimed to investigate the role of circ_0075960 in EC.

Methods

Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot assays were applied for expression analysis. CCK-8, EdU, colony formation, flow cytometry and wound healing assays were employed for functional analysis. The predicted binding relationship between miR-202-5p and circ_0075960 or CTNND1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter experiment. In vivo animal models were constructed in nude mice to verif
