Abstract:
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most prevalent histology type of lung cancer worldwide, accounting for 18% of total cancer-related deaths estimated by GLOBOCAN in 2020. CircRNAs have emerged as potent regulators of NSCLC development. CircRANGAP1 (hsa_circ_0001235/hsa_circ_0063526) is a potential biomarker for NSCLC identified by microarray dataset analysis. Here, we investigated the biological functions of circRANGAP1 in NSCLC development and elucidated the associated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanisms. We found that circRANGAP1 expression was upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cells, which was inversely correlated with carcinogenesis and poor clinical outcome of NSCLC patients. CircRANGAP1 knockdown inhibited NSCLC migration by regulating miR-512-5p/SOD2 axis. In conclusion, circRANGAP1 facilitated NSCLC tumorigenesis and development by sponging miR-512-5p to upregulate SOD2 expression. Suppression of circRANGAP1 expression by si-circRANGAP1 treatment could be a strategy to inhibit NSCLC development and metastasis.
