Abstract
Background: The current study tried to elucidate the regulatory role of tumor cell-derived exosomes (Exos)-circ_0064516 in angiogenesis and growth of cervical cancer.
Research design and methods: Related cirRNAs and downstream target genes were identified through bioinformatics analysis. Exos were isolated from cervical cancer cell line CaSki, followed by co-cultured with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Then, the roles of circ_0064516, miR-6805-3p, and MAPK1 in migration and angiogenesis of HUVECs were assayed. Furthermore, xenografted tumors were transplanted into nude mice for in vivo validation.
Results: In vitro assay validated highly expressed circ_0064516 in cervical cancer cells. Tumor cell-derived Exos carried circ_0064516 to HUVECs. circ_0064516 increased MAPK1 expression by binding to miR-6805-3p, thus enhancing migration and angiogenesis. Exos containing circ_0064516 also promoted tumorigenesis of cervical cancer cells in nude mice.
Conclusions: We confirmed the oncogenic role of tumor cell-derived Exos carrying circ_0064516 in cervical cancer progression through miR-6805-3p/MAPK1.
