The hsa_circ_0000517/miR-326 regulatory axis may provide valuable insights into breast cancer carcinogenesis and progression.
hsa_circ_0000517 is upregulated in breast cancer tissues and cells and behaves as an oncogenic circRNA. It is stable, cytoplasm-enriched, and promotes breast cancer cell proliferation, colony formation and invasion while suppressing apoptosis, mainly by sponging miR-326 and reducing miR-326 expression. The study also predicted 17 potential miR-326 downstream targets, suggesting a hsa_circ_0000517/miR-326/mRNA regulatory axis in breast cancer progression.
