Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been found to be linked to cancer progression and metastasis, but there is not much known about their connection to lung adenocarcinoma (LAC). In the previous study reported by our group, has_circ_0002360 was highly expressed in LAC tissues. The goal of this study was to investigate the potential impact of has_circ_0002360 in LAC. Bioinformatics software, TargetScan, and miRanda were used to study the interactions of RNAs. Luciferase reporter assays further confirmed their relationship. The relative expression of has_circ_0002360 in 122 patients and four cell lines of the lung were obtained using real-time qualitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The target gene podocalyxin-like (PODXL) expression was confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in ten pairs of clinical samples. Then, cell counting kit-8 (CCK8), wound healing, and transwell experiments were applied to examine cell growth, migration, and infection-induced cell invasion. LAC cell lines were infected, and the process was monitored by examination of the related epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) proteins. The resulting data indicated that has_circ_0002360 and PODXL were overexpressed in LAC tissues, whereas miR-762 expression was repressed. The reduction of has_circ_0002360 or upregulation of miR-762 mitigated the proliferation, migration, invasion of LAC cells. Mechanistically, has_circ_0002360 upregulated PODXL expressions by targeting miR-762 to promote LAC progression. In general, the has_circ_0002360/miR-762/PODXL axis affected the progress of LAC. The results of our study identified has_circ_0002360 as a novel oncogenic RNA in LAC.
