As newly discovered non-coding RNA (ncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA) has become a research hotspot in manifold cancers. But, the influences of hsa_circ_0007059 in lung cancer remain obscure. Expression of hsa_circ_0007059 in lung cancer tissues was firstly determined through RT-qPCR. After overexpressing hsa_circ_0007059, cell viability, apoptosis, p53/CyclinD1, Bax and Pro/Cleaved-Caspase-3 and EMT-correlative factors (E-cadherin, Vimetin, Twist1 and Zeb1) were tested in A549 and H1975 cells. MiR-378 expression in lung cancer tissues and cells was evaluated after miR-378 mimic transfection. Wnt/beta-catenin and ERK1/2 pathways were finally evaluated in A549 and H1975 cells. Inhibition of hsa_circ_0007059 was discovered in lung cancer tissues. Overexpressed hsa_circ_0007059 evidently restrained cell proliferation, elevated p53 and repressed CyclinD1 expression, meanwhile triggered apoptosis and enhanced Bax and Cleaved-Caspase-3 expression. Increased hsa_circ_0007059 abated EMT via enhancement of E-cadherin and inhibition of Vimentin, Twist and Zeb1 in A549 and H1975 cells. MiR-378 was up-regulated in lung cancer tissues, declined by hsa_circ_0007059 overexpression in A549 and H1975 cells. Overexpressed hsa_circ_0007059 hindered Wnt/beta-catenin and ERK1/2 pathways via suppressing miR-378 in A549 and H1975 cells. The investigations manifested that hsa_circ_0007059 abated cell proliferation and EMT process in lung cancer cells via inactivation of Wnt/beta-catenin and ERK1/2 pathways via suppressing miR-378.
