Function Description | Results:Microarray analysis and qRT-PCR verified a circRNA termed circGFRA1 that was upregulated in TNBC. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that upregulated circGFRA1 was correlated with poorer survival. Knockdown ofcircGFRA1 inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis in TNBC. Via luciferase reporter assays, circGFRA1 and GFRA1was observed to directly bind to miR-34a. Subsequent experiments showed that circGFRA1 and GFRA1 regulated theexpression of each other by sponging miR-34a.Conclusions:Taken together, we conclude that circGFRA1 may function as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) toregulate GFRA1 expression through sponging miR-34a to exert regulatory functions in TNBC. circGFRA1 may be adiagnostic biomarker and potential target for TNBC therapy. |
