Hsa_circ_0002019 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by regulating TNFAIP6/NF-κB signaling in gastric cancer
Background Gastric cancer (GC) is a common cancer with a high incidence and mortality rate. Herein, the role of hsa_circ_0002019 (circ_0002019) in GC was investigated. Methods The molecular structure and stability of circ_0002019 were identified by RNase R, and Actinomycin D treatment. Molecular associations were verified by RIP. Proliferation, migration, and invasion were detected by CCK-8, EdU, and Transwell, respectively. The effect of circ_0002019 on tumor growth was analyzed in vivo. Results Circ_0002019 was elevated in GC tissues and cells. Circ_0002019 knockdown inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion. Mechanically, circ_0002019 activated NF-κB signaling by increasing TNFAIP6 mRNA stability by PTBP1. Activation of NF-κB signaling limited the antitumor effect of circ_0002019 silencing in GC. Circ_0002019 knockdown inhibited tumor growth in vivo by reducing TNFAIP6 expression. Conclusions Circ_0002019 accelerated the proliferation, migration, and invasion by regulating TNFAIP6/NF-κB pathway, suggesting circ_0002019 could be a key regulatory factor in GC progression.
