Popis: | Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a type of non-coding RNAs derived from back-splicing, have been reported to function as gene expression regulators involved in tumor development of multiple human tumors. However, the clinical significance and underlying molecular mechanisms of circ_001569 in osteosarcoma still be unknown. In the study, we found that circ_001569 expression was significantly overexpressed in osteosarcoma tissues compared with adjacent noncancerous bone tissues. Higher circ_001569 expression significantly correlated with distant metastasis and advanced tumor stage of osteosarcoma patients. Gain-function and loss-function assays showed that circ_001569 knockdown significantly inhibited osteosarcoma cell proliferation and cell colon formation capacities. Moreover, upregulation of circ_001569 significantly promoted osteosarcoma cell resistance to cisplatin by activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Thus, these results indicated that circ_001569 represented a novel potentially therapeutic target of osteosarcoma. |
