Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. A lack of effective targeted therapies against CRC makes the treatment challenging. Here, we report a circular RNA (circRNA), has_circ_0071803, functioning as an oncogene in CRC. Circ_0071803 was upregulated in CRC tissues and cell lines, and its expression levels were inversely correlated with the prognosis and survival rate of patients with CRC. Circ_0071803 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in CRC. Moreover, we found that circ_0071803 sponged miR-330-5p, thereby upregulating mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1) in CRC cells. The suppression of cell activities by circ_0071803 knockdown were rescued by miR-330-5p inhibition or MAPK1 overexpression. Collectively, our findings elucidate that circ_0071803 promotes CRC progression by regulating the miR-330-5p/MAPK1 pathway, providing potential therapeutic targets for designing effective targeted treatments
