| Description: |
hsa_circ_0003970 is up-regulated in prostate cancer tissues and was validated by qRT-PCR. The work predicts it participates in a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network and links it to PCa-related pathways (e.g., MAPK, PI3K/AKT, lipid-related processes), supporting its potential as a metabolic biomarker. |
