| Expression pattern: |
UP |
| Associated gene: |
- |
| Associated microRNA: |
- |
| Biological function: |
Associated with increased CHD risk; discussed as related to vascular endothelial cell growth/proliferation and plaque rupture (contextual evidence cited). |
| Molecular mechanism: |
Not specified for CHD in this study. |
| Biological pathway or process: |
proliferation (other); migration (other); angiogenesis (other); inflammation (other) |
| Detected method: |
Q
M
|
| Validation methods: |
Microarray; RT-qPCR; Clinical Sample Validation; ROC Analysis; Cohort Study |
| Clinical significance: |
AUC=0.68 for diagnosing CHD; high expression is an independent risk factor for CHD. |
| Description: |
hsa_circ_0000284 (circHIPK3) is up-regulated in CHD peripheral blood leukocytes and is an independent risk factor with diagnostic value (AUC 0.68). The study does not establish a CHD-specific molecular mechanism, but discusses circHIPK3 in relation to endothelial cell proliferation/migration and vascular dysfunction based on prior evidence. |
