    Abstract:
    Oesophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a malignant tumor of the digestive system with a poor prognosis. Recent studies have shown the promoting effect of hsa_circ_0058063 (circ_0058063) on ESCC, but the potential regulatory mechanisms of circ_0058063 in ESCC remain largely unclear. The levels of circ_0058063, microRNA-4319 (miR-4319) and mRNA of thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) were indicated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in ESCC tissues and cells. Meanwhile, the level of THBS1 was quantified by western blot analysis. In addition, the cell functions were examined by CCK8 assay, Edu assay, flow cytometry assay and transwell assay. Furthermore, the interplay between miR-4319 and circ_0058063 or THBS1 was detected by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Finally, an in vivo experiment was implemented to confirm the effect of circ_0058063. The level of circ_0058063 and THBS1 were increased, and the miR-4319 level was decreased in ESCC tissues in contrast to that in normal tissues and cells. For functional analysis, circ_0058063 deficiency inhibited cell vitality, cell proliferation, migration and invasion in ESCC cells, whereas promoted cell apoptosis. Moreover, miR-4319 was confirmed to repress the progression of ESCC cells by suppressing THBS1. In mechanism, circ_0058063 acted as a miR-4319 sponge to regulate the level of THBS1. Besides, circ_0058063 knockdown also attenuated tumour growth in vivo. Circ_0058063 facilitates the development of ESCC through increasing THBS1 expression by regulating miR-4319, which also offered an underlying targeted therapy for ESCC treatment.
