    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND AND AIM: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor worldwide. Recent researches have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) could affect the progress of HCC, but the mechanism is still indistinct. In this work, we explored the roles of circRNA_0016788 in HCC. METHODS: The levels of hsa_circ_0016788, microRNA-506-3p (miR-506-3p), and mRNA of poly-adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase, member 14 (PARP14) were detected by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in HCC tissues. Meanwhile, the level of PARP14 was quantified by Western blot analysis. Besides, the cell functions were examined by commercial kit, Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, EdU assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometry assay, Western blot, and transwell assay. Furthermore, the interplay between miR-506-3p and hsa_circ_0016788 or PARP14 was detected by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Eventually, the in vivo experiments were applied to measure the role of hsa_circ_0016788. RESULTS: The levels of hsa_circ_0016788 and PARP14 were upregulated, and the miR-506-3p level was decreased in HCC tissues in contrast to that in normal tissues. For functional analysis, hsa_circ_0016788 deficiency inhibited cell glycolysis metabolism, cell vitality, cell proliferation, colony formation, and invasion in HCC cells whereas promoted cell apoptosis. Moreover, miR-506-3p was confirmed to repress the progression of HCC cells by suppressing PARP14. In mechanism, hsa_circ_0016788 acted as a miR-506-3p sponge to regulate the level of PARP14. In addition, hsa_circ_0016788 knockdown also inhibited tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSION: Hsa_circ_0016788 facilitates the development of HCC through increasing PARP14 expression by regulating miR-506-3p, which also offered an underlying targeted therapy for HCC treatment.
