| Description: |
circRPPH1 is up-regulated in glioma cells, glioma cell spheres, and glioma tissues based on RT-qPCR and online dataset analysis. Functionally, circRPPH1 promotes glioma stemness, including CSC marker expression, sphere formation, ALDH activity, and tumor-initiating capacity in vivo. Mechanistically, c-FOS binds the circRPPH1 promoter and transcriptionally activates circRPPH1 expression, forming a c-FOS/circRPPH1 regulatory axis. |
