| Description: |
hsa_circ_0011946 is up-regulated in breast cancer tissues and shows higher expression in MCF-7 cells. siRNA-mediated knockdown of hsa_circ_0011946 suppresses MCF-7 cell migration and invasion and decreases RFC3 mRNA/protein; a predicted ceRNA mechanism involves sponging miR-26a/b to regulate RFC3. |
