Abstract

The abnormal expression of circular RNA (circRNA) is bound up with the progress of various human cancers. This study aimed to reveal the potential role and mechanism of circBC048201 in the proliferation, migration, and invasion of bladder cancer cells. Quantitative real-time PCR was performed to detect the expression of circBC048201. Cell Counting Kit-8, colony formation, and transwell migration and invasion assays were used to confirm the in vitro functions of circBC048201. Western blot, RNA pull-down, and dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments were performed to study the potential mechanism. circBC048201 was abnormally highly expressed in bladder cancer tissues and cells, and the interference with circBC048201 inhibited bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. From the potential mechanism analysis, our data suggested that circBC048201 and miR-1184, miR-1184 and ITGA3 could bind to each other, and the interference with circBC048201 repressed bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion through the miR-1184/ITGA3 axis. In summary, our results showed that circBC048201 was abnormally highly expressed in bladder cancer tissues and cells, and the interference with circBC048201 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of bladder cancer cells through the miR-1184/ITGA3 axis.
