Functional description
It has been shown that circular RNA XPO1 (circXPO1) is involved in cancer (e.g., lung adenocarcinoma and osteosarcoma) progression by sponging microRNAs. Nevertheless, the role of circXPO1 and its interaction with microRNAs in prostate cancer remains unknown. In this study, the results of quantitative real-time PCR showed that circXPO1 levels were dramatically increased in human prostate cancer tissue and cell lines compared with those in normal tissue and cell line. Furthermore, cell proliferation, colony formation, and cell invasion assays showed that circXPO1 promoted the malignant behavior of pancreatic cells in vitro. Mechanistically, bioinformatics prediction, a dual-luciferase reporter assay, and pull-down assay suggested that circXPO1 physically targets miR-23a and negatively regulates its expression in pancreatic cancer cells. miR-23a mimics and inhibitors effectively reversed the effects of circXPO1 on the malignant behavior of prostate cancer cells in vitro. Consistent results were observed in the xenograft tumor model. In conclusion, circXPO1 promotes prostate cancer progression via targeting miR-23a, thus suggesting the circXPO1/miR-23a axis can be used as a potential therapeutic target for prostate cancer treatment.
