Abstract 21P
Background
The malignant progression of bladder cancer is a key influencing factor for its poor prognosis. In recent years, numerous studies have shown that circular RNA (circRNA) can regulate the expression of genes in multi-levels, which may play a key role in malignant tumors.
Methods
This study applied bioinformatics methods to preliminarily screened the differentially expressed circular RNAs between bladder cancer and corresponding adjacent tissue. Real-time quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR) experiments were performed to identify differentially expressed circular RNAs in cell lines and tissues of bladder cancer. The functional experiments including plate cloning, CCK-8, Edu and xenograft tumor models were implemented to investigate the biological behavior changes of bladder cancer induced by knocking down hsa_circ_0009061 in vitro and in vivo. Bioinformatics methods were applied to predict miRNAs that circular RNA might bind to and the miRNA target genes, and the real-time quantitative PCR, RNA pulldown,dual luciferase reporter experiment and western blot were utilized to explore the mechanism of hsa_circ_0009061 regulating bladder cancer progression.
Results
The bioinformatics analysis and RT-qPCR find that hsa_circ_0009061 was downregulated in cell lines and tissues of bladder cancer. After successfully knocking down hsa_circ_0009061 in bladder tumor cells, functional experiments including plate cloning, Edu and CCK-8 revealed that silencing hsa_circ_0009061 could promote the malignant proliferation of bladder tumor cell lines in vitro. Xenograft tumor modelalso verified that silencing hsa_circ_0009061 could promote tumor formation in vivo. Mechanistic studies have shown that hsa_circ_0009061 can act as a competitive endogenous RNA to bind to hsa-miR-889-3p and regulate the expression of CPEB3, resulting in the malignant progression of bladder cancer.
Conclusions
This study found that hsa_circ_0009061 was downregulated in cell lines and tumor specimens of bladder cancer and could affect the progression of bladder cancer. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0009061 can bind to hsa-miR-889-3p to regulate the expression of CPEB3, suggesting that hsa_circ_0009061 may be a new treatment option for bladder cancer.
