Abstract Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) can influence a variety of biological functions and act as a significant role in the progression and recurrence of glioblastoma (GBM). However, few coding circRNAs have been discovered in cancer, and their role in GBM is still unknown. The aim of this study was to identify coding circRNAs and explore their potential roles in the progression and recurrence of GBM. Methods CircSPECC1 was screened via circRNAs microarray of primary and recurrent GBM samples. To ascertain the characteristics and coding ability of circSPECC1, we conducted a number of experiments. Afterward, through in vivo and in vitro experiments, we investigated the biological functions of circSPECC1 and its encoded novel protein (SPECC1-415aa) in GBM, as well as their effects on TMZ sensitivity. Results By analyzing primary and recurrent GBM samples via circRNAs microarray, circSPECC1 was found to be a downregulated circRNA with coding potential in recurrent GBM compared with primary GBM. CircSPECC1 suppressed the proliferation, migration, invasion, and colony formation abilities of GBM cells by encoding a new protein known as SPECC1-415aa. CircSPECC1 restored TMZ sensitivity in TMZ-resistant GBM cells by encoding the new protein SPECC1-415aa. The m6A reader protein IGF2BP1 can bind to circSPECC1 to promote its expression and stability. Mechanistically, SPECC1-415aa can bind to ANXA2 and competitively inhibit the binding of ANXA2 to EGFR, thus resulting in the inhibition of the phosphorylation of EGFR (Tyr845) and its downstream pathway protein AKT (Ser473). In vivo experiments showed that the overexpression of circSPECC1 could combine with TMZ to treat TMZ-resistant GBM, thereby restoring the sensitivity of TMZ-resistant GBM to TMZ. Conclusions CircSPECC1 was downregulated in recurrent GBM compared with primary GBM. The m6A reader protein IGF2BP1 could promote the expression and stability of circSPECC1. The sequence of SPECC1-415aa, which is encoded by circSPECC1, can inhibit the binding of ANXA2 to EGFR by competitively binding to ANXA2 and inhibiting the phosphorylation of EGFR and AKT, thereby restoring the sensitivity of TMZ-resistant GBM cells to TMZ. |
