Abstract Medulloblastoma (MB) develops through various genetic, epigenetic, and non-coding (nc) RNA-related mechanisms, but the roles played by ncRNAs, particularly circular RNAs (circRNAs), remain poorly defined. CircRNAs are increasingly recognized as stable non-coding RNA therapeutic targets in many cancers, but little is known about their function in MBs. To determine medulloblastoma subgroup-specific circRNAs, publicly available RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data from 175 MB patients were interrogated to identify circRNAs that differentiate between MB subgroups. circ_63706 was identified as sonic hedgehog (SHH) group-specific, with its expression confirmed by RNA-FISH analysis in clinical tissue samples. The oncogenic function of circ_63706 was characterized in vitro and in vivo. Further, circ_63706-depleted cells were subjected to RNA-seq and lipid profiling to identify its molecular function. Finally, we mapped the circ_63706 secondary structure using an advanced random forest classification model and modeled a 3D structure to identify its interacting miRNA partner molecules. Circ_63706 regulates independently of the host coding gene pericentrin (PCNT), and its expression is specific to the SHH subgroup. circ_63706-deleted cells implanted into mice produced smaller tumors, and mice lived longer than parental cell implants. At the molecular level, circ_63706-deleted cells elevated total ceramide and oxidized lipids and reduced total triglyceride. Our study implicates a novel oncogenic circular RNA in the SHH medulloblastoma subgroup and establishes its molecular function and potential as a future therapeutic target. |
