| Resumen en inglés | The oncogenic role of circular RNA ENTPD7 (circENTPD7) in cancer biology has been reported in glioblastoma, while its role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unknown. This study was performed to investigate the involvement of circENTPD7 in NSCLC. NSCLC tissues and paired non-tumor tissues were collected from 64 NSCLC patients and the expression of circENTPD7 and PTEN were determined by RT-qPCR. Expression levels of PTEN protein in these tissue samples were measured by ELISA. The 64 NSCLC patients were subjected to a follow-up study to explore the role of circENTPD7 in predicting the survival of NSCLC. Overexpression of circENTPD7 was achieved in NSCLC cells, and the effects of overexpression of circENTPD7 on the expression of PTEN were measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot at mRNA and protein level, respectively. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay. CircENTPD7 was upregulated in NSCLC and high expression levels of circENTPD7 predicts the poor survival rate of NSCLC cells. In NSCLC tissues, circENTPD7 was inversely correlated with PTEN protein but not mRNA. In NSCLC tissues, overexpression of circENTPD7 resulted in downregulation of PTEN, but did not alter the expression of PTEN mRNA. Cell proliferation analysis showed that overexpression of circENTPD7 promoted the proliferation of NSCLC cells and reduced the inhibitory effects of overexpression of PTEN on cell proliferation. CircENTPD7 may suppress the accumulation of PTEN to promote cell proliferation in NSCLC |
