ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Gastric cancer is a serious malignant tumor associated with aberrant circular RNAs (circRNAs) expression. In this study, we aim to investigate the role and the underlying mechanism of circ_0000190, a circRNA in gastric cancer.METHODS:
Circ_0000190 expression in vivo was examined in gastric cancer and adjacent normal tissues by RT-PCR. Circ_0000190 expression in gastric cancer cell lines was detected by FISH and RT-PCR. The role of the circRNA in gastric cancer cells was assessed by the analysis of cell viability, apoptosis, proliferation, cell cycle and migration. The potential effector of circ_0000190 was predicted by computational screen and validated by luciferase reporter assay. Furthermore, Mice model of human gastric cancer was established to observe the underlying mechanisms of circ_0000190.RESULTS:
Circ_0000190 was down-regulated in gastric cancer tissues and cells, with a major location in cytoplasm. Circ_0000190 inhibited gastric cancer cell viability, proliferation and migration, and induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest by regulating the expression of capase-3, p27 and cyclin D. In addition, the circRNA was validated as a sponge of miR-1252, which directly targeted PAK3. The effects of circ_0000190 on the cellular processes were blocked by miR-1252 mimics, which could be rescued after further overexpression of PAK3.CONCLUSIONS:
Circ_0000190 suppresses gastric cancer progression potentially via inhibiting miR-1252/PAK3 pathway, employing circ_0000190 might be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of gastric cancer.
