Abstract

BACKGROUND: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs broadly expressed in cells of various species. Their role in cancers, especially in gastric cancer, is poorly understood. METHODS: Circular RNA 0000096 (hsa_circ_0000096) levels in 101 paired gastric cancer tissues and adjacent non-tumorous tissues from patients with gastric cancer were detected by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. A receiver operating characteristic curve was generated to evaluate the diagnostic value of hsa_circ_0000096. RNA interference was used to manipulate the expression of hsa_circ_0000096. Its biological effects were evaluated by flow cytometry, real-time cell analysis, a wound scratch assay, western blot analysis and xenograft models. RESULTS: Hsa_circ_0000096 was found to be significantly downregulated in gastric cancer tissues and gastric cancer cell lines compared with paired adjacent non-tumorous tissues and normal gastric epithelial cells (P<0.001). Moreover, knockdown of hsa_circ_0000096 significantly inhibited cell proliferation and migration in vitro and in vivo. The results of both immunohistochemical and western blot analyses showed that the protein levels of cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6), matrix metalloproteinase-2 and MMP-9 were significantly reduced in vitro and in vivo. A gastric cancer xenograft nude mouse model indicated that Ki67 and VEGF were reduced in a dose-dependent manner following knockdown of hsa_circ_0000096. However, the expression of E-cadherin increased. CONCLUSIONS: Hsa_circ_0000096 may be used as a potential novel biomarker for gastric cancer. It affects gastric cancer cell growth and migration by regulating cyclin D1, CDK6, MMP-2 and MMP-9.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
