Silencing hsa_circ_PVT1 (circPVT1) suppresses the growth and metastasis of glioblastoma multiforme cells by up-regulation of miR-199a-5p.

Conclusion: Our data suggested that silencing circPVT1 inhibited viability, migration, EGF-induced EMT and promoted apoptosis as well as repressed YAP1 and PI3K/AKT pathways by up-regulating miR-199a-5p.HIGHLIGHTSCircPVT1 expression is highly expressed in GBM tissues;Si-circPVT1 represses migration and promoted apoptosis in U539 and U251 cells;Si-circPVT1 represses migration and promoted apoptosis when elevating miR-199a-5p;Si-circPVT1 represses EGF-induced EMT when increasing miR-199a-5p;Si-circPVT1 suppresses YAP1 and PI3K/AKT pathways by up-regulating miR-199-5p.
