The regulation of circ_0003146 in ccRCC progression was achieved by upregulating SCARB1 in part. The current findings demonstrated that circ_0003146 contributed to the malignant progression of ccRCC via inducing SCARB1 upregulation by targeting miR-1272.
Circ_0003146 upregulates SCARB1 expression by acting as a miR-1272 sponge to promote malignant behaviors of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
