| Expression pattern: |
UP |
| Associated gene: |
HIF-1alpha, Snail, vimentin, E-cadherin |
| Associated microRNA: |
miR-600 |
| Biological function: |
Promotes NSCLC cell proliferation, invasion, migration, tumor growth, and pulmonary metastasis; circPIP5K1A knockdown suppresses these malignant phenotypes. |
| Molecular mechanism: |
circPIP5K1A functions as a miR-600 sponge, relieving miR-600-mediated repression of HIF-1alpha and promoting EMT-related protein changes. |
| Biological pathway or process: |
ceRNA regulation (promotes); proliferation (promotes); migration (promotes); invasion (promotes); metastasis (promotes); EMT (promotes); HIF-1 signaling (promotes) |
| Detected method: |
Q
|
| Validation methods: |
RT-qPCR; FISH / smFISH; Luciferase Reporter Assay; Transfection; MTT; CCK8; Wound Healing Assay; Transwell Assay; Western Blot; In Vivo Animal Model; Bioinformatics Analysis |
| Clinical significance: |
Potential candidate marker, therapeutic target, and prognostic marker for NSCLC. |
| Description: |
circPIP5K1A (hsa_circ_0014130) is up-regulated in NSCLC cell lines and acts as an oncogenic circRNA. It promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, tumor growth, and pulmonary metastasis by sponging miR-600 and thereby increasing HIF-1alpha expression and EMT-related changes. Silencing circPIP5K1A suppresses NSCLC progression in vitro and in A549 xenograft models. |
