Many studies have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a key regulatory role in the whole biological process of tumors. The purpose of this study was to explore the biological function and molecular mechanism of circ_0001666 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), so as to provide new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC. Gene expression profiles were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO, GSE101586) and the differential genes were obtained by using GEO2R analysis. The quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression level of circ_0001666 in NSCLC cells. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit were respectively used to assess the cell proliferation and apoptosis, where circ_0001666 was knockdown in NSCLC cells. The targeted relationship among mircoRNA 330-5p (miR-330-5p), circ_0001666, and high mobility group A2 protein (HMGA2) was verified by bioinformatics prediction, dual-luciferase reporter gene, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull down assay. The results showed that the expression of circ_0001666 in NSCLC cells was significantly up-regulated than that in normal lung epithelial cells. Circ_0001666 knockdown reduced the cell viability and promoted the apoptosis of NSCLC cells, which could be reversed by miR-330-5p inhibitors. MiR-330-5p is the downstream target of circ_0001666 and can be adsorbed by circ_0001666. HMGA2 is a target gene of miR-330-5p, which can be indirectly regulated by circ_0001666. The results suggest that circ_0001666 promotes the proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of NSCLC cells via miR-330-5p/HMGA2 axis. |
