However, the detailed regulatory mechanisms of circRNAs in cervical cancer are not fully understood. The present study was designed to explore the biological functions and potential mechanisms of circCLIP2 (has_circ_0001717) in cervical cancer.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The expression profiles of circRNAs in cancerous and adjacent normal tissues of cervical cancer patients were examined using RNA sequencing. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments were carried out to determine the biological functions of circCLIP2 in the proliferation, invasion, migration and apoptosis of cervical cancer cells. qRT-PCR was also used to evaluate the expression of circCLIP2, miR-361-3p and STAT2 in cervical cancer cells. The protein levels of STAT2 were determined by western blotting.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>CircCLIP2 was identified as the most down-regulated molecule in the cancerous tissues of cervical cancer patients compared to the adjacent normal tissues. Moreover, the levels of circCLIP2 was decreased in cervical cancer patients with metastasis and advanced tumour stage, and patients with high-circCLIP2-expression exhibited poorer survival rate. In addition, over-expression of circCLIP2 suppressed the proliferation, invasion and migration of cervical cancer cells, whereas cell apoptosis was enhanced. Moreover, down-regulated circCLIP2 functioned as the sponge of miR-361-3p, which reduced the expression of STAT2. Furthermore, knockdown of STAT2 inhibited the expression of circCLIP2 at the transcriptional level.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The circCLIP2/miR-361-3p/STAT2 signalling could mediate the progression of cervical cancer.
