| Expression pattern: |
UP |
| Associated gene: |
CCND2, P-gp, GSTpi |
| Associated microRNA: |
miR-1205 |
| Biological function: |
Promotes doxorubicin chemoresistance, cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in colorectal cancer; exosomal transfer of circ_0006174 spreads DOX resistance from resistant CRC cells to sensitive CRC cells. |
| Molecular mechanism: |
Exosome-mediated intercellular transfer; ceRNA mechanism in which circ_0006174 sponges miR-1205 to upregulate CCND2, thereby promoting DOX resistance. |
| Biological pathway or process: |
chemoresistance (promotes); drug resistance (promotes); proliferation (promotes); migration (promotes); invasion (promotes); ceRNA regulation (promotes) |
| Detected method: |
Q

| Validation methods: |
RT-qPCR; Clinical Sample Validation; Bioinformatics Analysis; Transfection; CCK8; Transwell Assay; Western Blot; Luciferase Reporter Assay; In Vivo Animal Model |
| Clinical significance: |
Exosomal circ_0006174 can be used as a biomarker or diagnostic target for doxorubicin chemoresistance in colorectal cancer. |
| Description: |
circ_0006174 is upregulated in DOX-resistant colorectal cancer tissues, cells, and exosomes derived from resistant CRC cells. Exosomal circ_0006174 promotes DOX chemoresistance and malignant cell behaviors by sponging miR-1205 and increasing CCND2 expression, while circ_0006174 knockdown enhances DOX sensitivity in vitro and in xenograft tumors. The study proposes exosomal circ_0006174 as a potential diagnostic biomarker or therapeutic target for DOX resistance in CRC. |
