Abstract
Introduction: Numerous studies have indicated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play an important role in diverse cancers. However, the specific molecular mechanism of circRNAs in prostate cancer (PCa) remains largely unclear.
Method: In this study, we performed western blotting, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, CCK-8 assay, cell scratch wound assay, and RNA immunoprecipitation assay.
Results: These results showed that the expression of hsa_circ_0030568 was remarkably increased in PCa cells by using quantitative real-time PCR combined with dataset analysis. Mechanistically, circ_0030568 could physically bind to miR-141-3p and elevate the expression of BRD4 via sponging miR-141-3p in PCa cells, then accelerating the progression of PCa. Upregulation of hsa_circ_0030568 induces tumor progression through the miR-141-3p-BRD4 axis.
Conclusion: Taken together, these findings suggested that hsa_circ_0030568 may act as a potential biomarker of PCa and a promising target for PCa treatment.
