    Abstract:
    Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal tumors across the world with an overall 5-year survival rate of 9%, and great efforts have been devoted in early diagnosis and treatment in the past decades. Competing endogenous RNAs are novel and specific regulatory mechanisms of gene expression, and researches have indicated its important roles in tumor regulation. In this study, we explored the circ-0050102 expression in pancreatic cancer and its impacts on tumor malignant phenotypes and further investigated the correlations among circ-0050102, miR-1182 and NPSR1. Results of real-time quantitative PCR showed that circ-0050102 expressed higher in pancreatic cancers compared with that in adjacent normal tissues. In cell functional experiment, downregulation of circ-0050102 could suppress cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability, boost cell apoptosis and arrest cell cycle in both PANC-1 and CFPAC-1 cells. Furthermore, allogeneic transplantation in nude mice was performed and results showed that the inhibition of circ-0050102 could slow down tumor formation in vivo. Mechanism research suggested that circ-0050102 could downregulate miR-1182, while miR-1182 could not influence the expression of circ-0050102, and miR-1182 could directly target at NPSR1 and suppress it. Moreover, circ-0050102 could reverse the effects of si-NPSR1 on pancreatic cancer cells. In conclusion, we identified that circ-0050102 played an important role in promoting pancreatic cancer by regulating the miR-1182/NPSR1 pathway.
