Circular RNA circCCDC9 acts as a miR-6792-3p sponge to suppress the progression of gastric cancer through regulating CAV1 expression.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:As a novel type of noncoding RNAs, covalently closed circular RNAs (circRNAs) are ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotes. Emerging studies have related dysregulation of circRNAs to tumorigenesis. However, the biogenesis, regulation, function and mechanism of circRNAs in gastric cancer (GC) remain largely unclear. METHODS:The expression profile of circRNAs in 6 pairs of GC tissues and adjacent non-tumor tissues was analyzed by RNA-sequencing. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to determine the expression level of circCCDC9 in GC tissues and cell lines. Then, functional experiments in vitro and in vivo were employed to explore the effects of circCCDC9 on tumor growth and metastasis in GC. Mechanistically, dual luciferase reporter, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down assays were performed to confirm that circCCDC9 directly sponged miR-6792-3p and alleviated suppression on target CAV1 expression. RESULTS:Evidently down-regulated expression of circCCDC9 was observed in both GC tissues and cell lines. Expression of circCCDC9 was negatively correlated with tumor size, lymph node invasion, advanced clinical stage and overall survival in GC patients. Functionally, overexpression of circCCDC9 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of GC cell lines in vitro and tumor growth and metastasis in vivo, whereas miR-6792-3p mimics counteracted these effects. Mechanistic analysis demonstrated that circCCDC9 acted as a "ceRNA" of miR-6792-3p to relieve the repressive effect of miR-6792-3p on its target CAV1, then suppressed the tumorigenesis of GC. CONCLUSIONS:CircCCDC9 functions as a tumor suppressor in inhibiting the progression of GC through miR-6792-3p/CAV1 axis, which has provided an exploitable biomarker and therapeutic target for patients with GC.
