Core Tip
Core Tip: As we know, the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) is significantly influenced by circular RNAs (circRNAs). This study focused on circRNA_0001658 (circ_0001658) and delved into how it works in CRC. The results confirmed that circ_0001658 and methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) mRNA expression in CRC tissues and cells were increased, while miR-590-5p was decreased. Circ_0001658 was inversely associated with miR-590-5p expression while positively with METTL3 expressions. In a word, circ_0001658 accelerates the progression of CRC through miR-590-5p/METTL3 regulatory axis.
