| Description: |
circ_0000735 is up-regulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines, and its higher expression is associated with advanced TNM stage and lymph node metastasis. Functionally, it promotes NSCLC cell proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion and suppresses apoptosis. Mechanistically, circ_0000735 acts as a sponge for miR-1179 and miR-1182, although downstream regulators were not identified. |
