Extracellular nanovesicles-transmitted circular RNA has_circ_0000190 suppresses osteosarcoma progression

Abstract

Under the microenvironment, tumour progression is substantially affected by cell-cell communication. In spite of the mediating effect of extracellular nanovesicles (EVs) on cell-cell communication by packaging into circRNAs, the effect of EVs circRNA hsa_circ_0000190 (circ-0000190) in osteosarcoma is still not clear. Circ-0000190 expressions in tissues and EVs from plasma were compared between osteosarcoma patients and controls. Thereafter, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn and area under the curve was calculated to examine whether the diagnostic results were accurate, and the effect of EVs circ-0000190 was dug out via the determination of cell phenotypes and animal assays. Results showed circ-0000190 exhibited an obvious reduction in EVs and tissues of osteosarcoma patients (P
