BACKGROUND: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are abnormally expressed in breast cancer (BC). However, the biological function and mechanism of circHMCU still need to be further explored.
METHODS: The expression levels of circHMCU, miR-4458 and phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or western blot. The glucose uptake, lactate production and ATP level were assayed by related commercial kits. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8), 5'-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) and flow cytometry assays were used to test cell proliferation and apoptosis, respectively. The migratory and invasive abilities were detected by transwell and wound-healing assays. The relationships among circHMCU, miR-4458 and PGK1 were verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. The function of circHMCU in tumor growth was evaluated by animal studies.
RESULTS: CircHMCU was upregulated in BC tissues and cell lines, whereas miR-4458 was downregulated. For biological experiments, circHMCU knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, migration, glycolysis, while promoted cell apoptosis. CircHMCU bound miR-4458, and miR-4458 targeted PGK1. MiR-4458 inhibition reversed circHMCM knockdown-mediated effects on BC cell malignant behaviors. MiR-4458 overexpression suppressed cell glycolysis, proliferation, and metastasis and promoted apoptosis in BC cells through PGK1 upregulation. Additionally, circHMCU suppressed tumor growth in vivo.
CONCLUSION: CircHMCU acted as an oncogenic factor by regulating the miR-4458/PGK1 axis in BC.
