CircRNA circ_0006156 inhibits the metastasis of prostate cancer by blocking the ubiquitination of S100A9

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been demonstrated to play vital roles in cancer development and progression. However, studies on the association between circRNAs and prostate cancer (PCa) are still lacking. CircRNA sequencing of two pairs of PCa tissues and adjacent normal tissues was conducted in the...

Sumario:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been demonstrated to play vital roles in cancer development and progression. However, studies on the association between circRNAs and prostate cancer (PCa) are still lacking. CircRNA sequencing of two pairs of PCa tissues and adjacent normal tissues was conducted in the present study, and qRT–PCR was performed to verify the results. Functional experiments were performed to investigate cellular functions after specific changes. Mass spectrometry analysis after RNA pull-down experiments and Co-IP assays were further conducted. Downstream target proteins were predicted via online databases and detected in vitro by Western blot analysis and in vivo by immunohistochemistry. Hsa_circ_0006156 (subsequently named circ_0006156) expresses at low levels in both PCa tissues and cells, and it significantly inhibits the migration and invasion of PCa cells. Circ_0006156 binds to and blocks the ubiquitination of S100A9. Moreover, functional assays revealed that circ_0006156 represses the malignant progression of PCa by binding to S100A9. Finally, in vivo experiments showed that circ_0006156 suppresses PCa migration and invasion by increasing S100A9, revealing circ_0006156 as a potential novel effective target for PCa treatment.
