Accumulating evidence has shown that hsa_circ_0003098 plays a vital role in bladder cancer (BCa). The overexpression of hsa_circ_0003098 is associated with poor prognosis and promotes BCa cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumor growth. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0003098 acts as a sponge for miR-377-5p, promoting the upregulation of ACAT2 expression and inducing cholesteryl ester accumulation. Therefore, hsa_circ_0003098 could serve as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for BCa.
Accumulating evidence has proven that circRNAs play vital roles in tumor progression. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying circRNAs in bladder cancer (BCa) remain largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to identify the role and investigate the potential molecular mechanisms of hsa_circ_0003098 in BCa. We confirmed that hsa_circ_0003098 expression was significantly upregulated in BCa tissues, of which expression was remarkably associated with poor prognosis. Functionally, overexpression of hsa_circ_0003098 promoted BCa cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro as well as tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0003098 promoted upregulation of ACAT2 expression and induced cholesteryl ester accumulation via acting as a sponge for miR-377-5p. Thus, hsa_circ_0003098 plays an oncogenic role in BCa and may serve as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for BCa.
