Background: Prostate cancer (PC) fearfully impacts men's health. We explored the efficacy and mechanism of circular RNA circZNF609 (circZNF609) on colony formation, viability, apoptosis, migration and invasion and in PC cells. Methods: Colony formation, CCK-8, flow cytometry, migration and invasion assay were respectively used to detect the functions of circZNF609 and microRNA (miR)-186-5p on cell colony ability, viability, apoptosis, migration and invasion. circZNF609 and miR-186-5p expression were changed by cell transfection and tested by RT-qPCR. Moreover, Cleaved-Caspase-3, Cleaved-Caspase-9, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), Vimentin and relate-proteins of cell pathways were examined through Western blot. Results: circZNF609 was highly expressed at PC tissues. circZNF609 declined cell colony ability, viability, migration and invasion and caused apoptosis. Furthermore, circZNF609 negatively regulated miR-186-5p, miR-186-5p inhibitor could reverse impacts of circZNF609. Finally, circZNF609 restrained the YAP1 and AMPK pathways by up-regulating miR-186-5p. Conclusion: Silencing circZNF609 restrained growth, migration and invasion of PC cells by up-regulating miR-186-5p via YAP1 and AMPK pathways.
