| Biological function: |
Serves as a down-regulated breast cancer diagnostic and staging biomarker measured by the nanodevice and qRT-PCR; combined with circCDYL to distinguish breast cancer patients from healthy counterparts and stages. |
| Molecular mechanism: |
No disease molecular mechanism was tested; the study used BSJ-specific capture probe hybridization, DSN-powered 3D-DNA walking, and RCT-based fluorescent aptamer signal amplification to detect circMTO1. |

| Validation methods: |
RNase R Treatment; RT-qPCR; Clinical Sample Validation; ROC Analysis; Bioinformatics Analysis |
| Clinical significance: |
Down-regulated in breast cancer tissues; used with circCDYL as a diagnostic and staging biomarker with high accuracy across early and advanced breast cancer stages. |
| Description: |
circMTO1 is a human MTO1-derived circRNA that was measured in breast cancer cells and clinical breast tissues. The study found circMTO1 down-regulation in breast cancer tissues and used it together with circCDYL as a diagnostic and staging biomarker, validated by the authors' nanodevice and qRT-PCR. |
