Moreover, Ectopic expression of circ_002172 inhibited cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) infiltration to promote the immune escape of BC. In conclusion, the tumor-promoting role of circ_002172 in BC was achieved by inducing immune escape via the miR-296-5p/CXCL12 axis.
Tumor promoting effect of circ_002172 associates with induced immune escape in breast cancer via the miR-296-5p/CXCL12 axis.
