| Expression pattern: |
UP |
| Associated gene: |
BIRC3 |
| Associated microRNA: |
miR-196a-5p |
| Biological function: |
suppresses apoptosis (anti-apoptosis) in OSCC cells |
| Molecular mechanism: |
Functions as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to sponge miR-196a-5p, thereby regulating BIRC3 expression and apoptosis. |
| Biological pathway or process: |
apoptosis (inhibits); ceRNA regulation (other); p53 signaling (other) |

| Validation methods: |
RT-qPCR; Microarray; circRNA-seq; divergent primers PCR; Sanger Sequencing; Clinical Sample Validation; Bioinformatics Analysis; Transfection; Annexin V/PI Flow Cytometry; Western Blot |
| Clinical significance: |
circDOCK1 could represent a novel potential biomarker and therapeutic target of OSCC. |
| Description: |
circDOCK1 is up-regulated in OSCC tissues and cell lines and acts as an anti-apoptotic circRNA. It functions as a ceRNA to sponge miR-196a-5p, thereby increasing BIRC3 expression and suppressing OSCC cell apoptosis, suggesting biomarker/therapeutic potential. |
