| Expression pattern: |
UN |
| Associated gene: |
IGF1 |
| Associated microRNA: |
miR-379 |
| Biological function: |
promotes NSCLC cell proliferation |
| Molecular mechanism: |
circHIPK3 acts as a miRNA sponge for miR-379 to regulate IGF1 expression |
| Biological pathway or process: |
proliferation (promotes); ceRNA regulation (promotes) |
| Detected method: |
Q
|
| Validation methods: |
Back-Splice Junction PCR / divergent primers PCR; RNase R Treatment; Sanger Sequencing; Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Fractionation; RT-qPCR; Luciferase Reporter Assay; Transfection; CCK8; Colony Formation Assay; Western Blot; ELISA; Bioinformatics Analysis |
| Clinical significance: |
might be a potential tumor biomarker for NSCLC |
| Description: |
In NSCLC cell lines, circHIPK3 promotes cell proliferation. Mechanistically, it functions as a ceRNA that sponges miR-379, thereby relieving repression of IGF1 and increasing IGF1 expression. |
