Lower expression of hsa_circ_0001445 was significantly associated with age at menarche ˂14 years; higher expression was associated with normal body mass index (BMI) and hair dye avoidance.
hsa_circ_0001445 is down-regulated in breast cancer tissues versus adjacent normal tissues. The study suggests it may act as a tumor-suppressive circRNA by participating in predicted ceRNA networks (miRNA sponging) that could influence multiple cancer-relevant mRNAs.
