| Expression pattern: |
UP |
| Associated gene: |
ZBTB7A |
| Associated microRNA: |
miR-577 |
| Biological function: |
promotes colony formation, migration, invasion, glycolysis (ECAR) and tumor growth in NSCLC; circ_0016760 silencing suppresses these phenotypes |
| Molecular mechanism: |
ceRNA mechanism: circ_0016760 sponges miR-577 to regulate ZBTB7A expression |
| Biological pathway or process: |
proliferation (promotes); migration (promotes); invasion (promotes); glycolysis (promotes); ceRNA regulation (promotes) |
| Detected method: |
Q

| Validation methods: |
RT-qPCR; RNase R Treatment; Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Fractionation; Luciferase Reporter Assay; RNA Pull-Down; RIP (RNA Immunoprecipitation); Transfection; Colony Formation Assay; Transwell Assay; In Vivo Animal Model; Western Blot |
| Clinical significance: |
- |
| Description: |
circ_0016760 is up-regulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines and mainly localizes to the cytoplasm. It promotes NSCLC malignant phenotypes (colony formation, migration, invasion, glycolytic activity/ECAR) and tumor growth by acting as a ceRNA that sponges miR-577, thereby increasing ZBTB7A expression. |
