ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a malignant tumor. Recent studies have showed circular RNA (circRNA) participates in the development of CRC. The study was designed to reveal the role of circ_0011385 in CRC progression and underneath mechanism.METHODS:
The expression circ_0011385, microRNA-330-3p (miR-330-3p) and myosin VI (MYO6) mRNA were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Protein expression was detected by Western blot assay. Cell proliferation was investigated by 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo (-z-y1)-3,5-di-phenytetrazoliumromide (MTT), cell colony formation and flow cytometry assays. Cell apoptosis was demonstrated by flow cytometry analysis. Cell migration and invasion were evaluated by wound-healing assay and transwell invasion assay, respectively. The binding sites between miR-330-3p and circ_0011385 or MYO6 were predicted by CircInteractome or starBase online databases, and identified by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation assays.RESULTS:
Circ_0011385 and MYO6 expression were dramatically upregulated, while miR-330-3p expression was downregulated in CRC tissues or cells compared with control groups. Circ_0011385 expression was associated with tumor size, tumor-node-metastasis stage (TNM) stage and lymph node metastasis of CRC patients. Circ_0011385 silencing or MYO6 absence repressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion, whereas induced cell apoptosis in CRC. Additionally, miR-330-3p inhibitor or MYO6 overexpression attenuated the repressive impacts of circ_0011385 silencing on CRC process. Circ_0011385 was associated with miR-330-3p, and miR-330-3p targeted MYO6. Circ_0011385 knockdown inactivated MEK1/2/ERK1/2 signaling pathway by miR-330-3p/MYO6 axis. Furthermore, circ_0011385 knockdown suppressed tumor growth in vivo.CONCLUSION:
Circ_0011385 regulated CRC process by miR-330-3p/MYO6 axis through MEK1/2/ERK1/2 signaling pathway, providing a novel therapeutic target for CRC.Palavras-chave
