Circular RNA ZNF609 functions as a competing endogenous RNA in regulating E2F transcription factor 6 through competitively binding to microRNA-197-3p to promote the progression of cervical cancer progression.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Countless studies have demonstrated that Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert vital effects in regulating tumorigenesis of various cancers. CircRNA ZNF609 (circ-ZNF609) has been reported as an oncogene in various human cancers. Nevertheless, its regulating effect in cervical cancer (CC) remains to be further explored. RT-qPCR was adopted to measure circ-ZNF609, miR-197-3p and E2F6 levels. CC cell proliferation, migration and invasion were analyzed via CCK-8 and transwell assays. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was adopted to confirm the interaction between miR-197-3p and circ-ZNF609 or E2F6. In the present study, it was found that circ-ZNF609 was elevated in CC tissues and cell lines, and circ-ZNF609 deletion repressed cell viability, migration and invasion in CC. Moreover, circ-ZNF609 was identified to negatively regulate miR-197-3p expression in CC cells. The inhibition of miR-197-3p abrogated the inhibitory effect on CC cell proliferation, migration and invasion induced by circ-ZNF609 knockdown. Additionally, we further demonstrated that circ-ZNF609 upregulated E2F6 by interacting with miR-197-3p. Finally, rescue assays indicated that E2F6 overexpression upended the suppression of CC progression induced by circ-ZNF609 deletion. In conclusion, circ-ZNF609 promoted CC progression through modulating the miR-197-3p/E2F6 axis as an oncogene. This finding offers a unique insight into CC molecular mechanism and suggests a potential target for CC therapy.
