    Abstract:
    The key role of circular RNA (circRNA) in the malignant progression of cancers has been demonstrated. However, the role of circRNA midline-1 (circMID1) in prostate cancer (PCa) progression has not been clarified. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure relative expression. Function analysis was performed using EdU staining, colony formation assay, flow cytometry, wound healing assay, transwell assay and cell glycolysis detection. The protein levels were detected by Western blot analysis. RNA pull-down assay, dual-luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay were performed to verify RNA interaction. Animal experiments were utilized to explore the effects of circMID1 knockdown on PCa tumorigenesis in vivo. Our results showed that circMID1 was upregulated in PCa tissues and cells and its knockdown inhibited PCa cell proliferation, migration, invasion and glycolysis in vitro, as well as PCa tumorigenesis in vivo. IGF1R and YTHDC2 were highly expressed in PCa tissues and cells, and their expression was positively regulated by circMID1. IGF1R and YTHDC2 overexpression reversed the inhibitory effect of circMID1 silencing on PCa cell progression. In terms of mechanism, circMID1 could sponge miR-330-3p and miR-330-3p could target IGF1R and YTHDC2. Functional experiments showed that circMID1 sponged miR-330-3p to regulate PCa progression via the YTHDC2/IGF1R/AKT axis. In conclusion, our data confirmed that circMID1 might play a pro-cancer role in PCa, which promoted PCa progression through regulating the miR-330-3p/YTHDC2/IGF1R/AKT axis.
