circAGTPBP1 expression was positively correlated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage.
circAGTPBP1 is upregulated in papillary thyroid cancer and promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, EMT, metastasis, and in vivo tumor growth. It functions as a ceRNA that sponges miR-34a-5p to de-repress NOTCH1, thereby activating Notch signaling.

circAGTPBP1 promotes the progression of papillary thyroid cancer through the notch pathway via the miR-34a-5p/notch1 axis.
