Circular RNA circ_0026359 Enhances Cisplatin Resistance in Gastric Cancer via Targeting miR-1200POLD4 Pathway

الملخص EN

Human gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors with a poor prognosis.

Cisplatin (CDDP) is a well-known first-line chemotherapeutic drug.

Acquired resistance retards the clinical application of CDDP in gastric cancer.

In this study, circular RNA circ_0026359 was demonstrated to be overexpressed in gastric cancer tissues/cells compared with normal gastric tissues/cells and was overexpressed in CDDP-resistant gastric cancer tissues/cells compared with CDDP-sensitive gastric cancer tissues/cells.

High levels of circ_0026359 were associated with low overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) rates in gastric cancer patients.

circ_0026359 was examined to promote CDDP resistance in gastric cancer cells.

circ_0026359 directly interacted and negatively regulated miR-1200.

POLD4 was a direct target of miR-1200.

miR-1200/POLD4 pathway mediated the promoting role of circ_0026359 in CDDP resistance of gastric cancer.

circ_0026359 could be used as a potential target for CDDP-resistant gastric cancer therapy.
