| Description: |
In CRC cells (HCT116 and LoVo) under M2-TAM co-culture conditions, hsa_circ_0006990 is upregulated and promotes tumorigenic behaviors. Quercetin inhibits CRC proliferation, migration and invasion and promotes apoptosis partly by downregulating hsa_circ_0006990. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0006990 sponges miR-132-3p and miR-342-3p to regulate MUC13 and E2F1, forming ceRNA axes involved in quercetin-mediated CRC suppression. |
