circRNA-disease information
Expression pattern:
UP
Associated gene: USP44 mRNA, USP44, AGO2
Associated microRNA: miR-143-3p
Biological function: Promotes gastric carcinoma cell proliferation, migration, and in vivo tumor growth.
Molecular mechanism: CircFOXO3 functions as a molecular sponge for miR-143-3p and promotes gastric carcinoma progression by upregulating USP44 through the miR-143-3p-USP44 axis.
Biological pathway or process:

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

Detected method:
Q
Validation methods:

RT-qPCR; Bioinformatics Analysis; RIP (RNA Immunoprecipitation); Luciferase Reporter Assay; RNA Pull-Down; Transfection; CCK8; Transwell Assay; Western Blot; In Vivo Animal Model

Clinical significance:

-

Description:

CircFOXO3 is reported to be upregulated in gastric carcinoma models and to promote malignant phenotypes, including proliferation, migration, and xenograft tumor growth. Mechanistically, circFOXO3 acts as a sponge/scaffold for miR-143-3p, relieving miR-143-3p-mediated repression of USP44 and thereby enhancing the miR-143-3p-USP44 axis in GC progression.

Confidence score:

0.6562
