Abstract
The aim of the study was to research the biological functions of circRNA (hsa_circ_0079662) and its underlying mechanism in colorectal cancer. Drug‐resistant cell lines (HT29‐LOHP, HCT116‐LOHP, HCT8‐LOHP) were separately dealt with oxaliplatin concentration gradient (0.1‐10 μmol/L). Real‐time PCR, Western blotting, dual‐luciferase assay, miRNA pull‐down assay, coimmunoprecipitation and ELASA were performed to explore the mechanism of chemotherapy drug oxaliplatin resistance in CRC. The results showed that the expression of hsa_circ_0079662 was increased in drug‐resistant cell lines by RT‐PCR. The expression of HOXA9, TRIP6, Vcam‐1, VEGFC, MMP3, MMP9 and MMP14 was higher by Western blotting. Interaction between HOXA9 and TRIP6 in CO‐IP detection. Additionally, the cytokines TNF‐α, IL‐1 and IL‐6 were also found. In conclusion, hsa_circ_0079662, as a ceRNA binding with hsa‐mir‐324‐5p, can regulate target gene HOXA9 and induced the mechanism of chemotherapy drug oxaliplatin resistance in CRC through the TNF‐α pathway in human colon cancer.
