| Description: |
circCYP24A1 (hsa_circ_0060927), derived from CYP24A1, is up-regulated in ESCC and promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, colony formation, and xenograft tumor growth. Mechanistically, it binds PKM2 to enhance NF-kappaB activation (p65 phosphorylation), increasing CCL5 secretion; high circCYP24A1 is associated with shorter overall survival and serves as a prognostic biomarker/target. |
