| Expression pattern: |
UP |
| Associated gene: |
DNMT1, SOCS3 |
| Associated microRNA: |
miR‐29b‐1‐5p, miR‐224‐3p, miR‐522‐3p, miR‐661, miR‐1264 |
| Biological function: |
May contribute to uterine leiomyoma pathology (proposed via miRNA sponging leading to increased DNMT1 transcripts and SOCS3 hypermethylation). |
| Molecular mechanism: |
Putative miRNA sponging (ceRNA-like) mechanism involving miR1264 and DNMT1/SOCS3 methylation regulation (hypothesized). |
| Biological pathway or process: |
ceRNA regulation (other); other pathway/process (other) |

| Validation methods: |
divergent primers PCR; RT-qPCR; Clinical Sample Validation |
| Clinical significance: |

| Description: |
This study reports ectopic expression of hsa_circ_0060927 (from CYP24A1) in a subset of uterine leiomyoma tissues while absent in adjacent normal tissues, and finds no significant association with MED12 mutation status. A miRNA-sponging mechanism (e.g., via miR-1264 affecting DNMT1/SOCS3 methylation) is discussed as a hypothesis but not experimentally validated here. |
