circRNA-disease information
Expression pattern:
UN
Associated gene: E-cadherin
Associated microRNA: miR-92a, miR-92a-3p
Biological function: circPTK2 inhibits EMT, suppresses HCC cell invasion, and inhibits progression and metastasis of HCC.
Molecular mechanism: circPTK2 acts as a ceRNA and sponges miR-92a to upregulate E-cadherin expression.
Biological pathway or process:

EMT (inhibits); invasion (inhibits); metastasis (inhibits); ceRNA regulation (other)

Detected method:
Q
Validation methods:

Luciferase Reporter Assay; Transfection; RT-qPCR; Western Blot; Transwell Assay; Bioinformatics Analysis

Clinical significance:

The circPTK2/miR-92a/E-cadherin regulatory axis may serve as a valuable biomarker and therapeutic target for patients with HCC.

Description:

This study identifies circPTK2, also named hsa_circ_0008305, as a suppressive circRNA in HCC cell invasion, EMT, progression, and metastasis. Mechanistically, circPTK2 acts as a ceRNA that binds miR-92a and relieves miR-92a-mediated repression of E-cadherin, forming the circPTK2/miR-92a/E-cadherin axis.

Confidence score:

0.5416
