| Description: |
hsa_circ_0004001 is up-regulated in serum/plasma (blood exosome-associated) samples from HCC patients and shows diagnostic value by ROC analysis. Bioinformatics prediction suggests it may regulate miRNAs and be involved in VEGF/VEGFR, PI3K/Akt/mTOR and Wnt-related signaling. |
| Confidence score: |
0.5047 |
