circRNA-disease information
Expression pattern:
UP
Associated gene: STAT3, AGO2
Associated microRNA: miR-328-3p
Biological function: promotes proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis (tube formation) of hPAECs in a PAH cell model
Molecular mechanism: ceRNA/miRNA sponge: circHIPK3 binds miR-328-3p and indirectly upregulates STAT3 (protein) in hPAECs
Biological pathway or process:

proliferation (promotes); migration (promotes); angiogenesis (promotes); ceRNA regulation (promotes)

Detected method:
Q
Validation methods:

RT-qPCR; Back-Splice Junction PCR / divergent primers PCR; Sanger Sequencing; Luciferase Reporter Assay; RIP (RNA Immunoprecipitation); Transfection; CCK8; Transwell Assay; Wound Healing Assay; Tube Formation Assay; Western Blot; Bioinformatics Analysis

Clinical significance:

-

Description:

In a PDGF-stimulated hPAEC PAH cell model, circHIPK3 is up-regulated and promotes endothelial proliferation, migration, and tube formation. It acts as a miRNA sponge for miR-328-3p, relieving repression on STAT3 and increasing STAT3 protein levels, thereby contributing to PAH-related vascular remodeling phenotypes.

Confidence score:

0.7406
