Abstract
It has been reported that circFAT1 plays opposite roles in gastric cancer and osteosarcoma. This study aimed to explore the involvement of circFAT1 in colorectal cancer (CRC). Paired CRC and non-tumor tissues from 64 CRC patients were subjected to RNA preparations and RT-qPCRs to determine the expression of circFAT1, premature miR-10a, and mature miR-10a. In CRC cells, the effects of circFAT1 overexpression on miR-10a maturation were analyzed by determining the expression of both premature miR-10a and mature miR-10a using RT-qPCRs. The role of circFAT1 and miR-10a in regulating the proliferation, invasion, and migration of CRC cells was analyzed by BrdU and Transwell assays, respectively. We found that circFAT1 was upregulated in CRC. Mature miR-10a, but not premature miR-10a, was overexpressed in CRC and positively correlated with circFAT1. CircFAT1 overexpression increased the expression of mature miR-10a, but not premature miR-10a. Overexpression of circFAT1 and miR-10a increased cell proliferation, invasion and migration, and miR-10a inhibitor suppressed cell behaviors and reversed the effects of circFAT1 overexpression. circFAT1 is overexpressed in CRC and may suppress CRC cell proliferation, invasion and migration by incr...Continue Reading
