circRNA_0046367 Details

Basic Information
circRNA    circRNA_0046367
Alias    -
circBase ID    -
Host gene    -
Species    homo sapiens
Peptide    -
Sequence  -

Expression
Description  Cells with high-fat-induced steatosis (steatosis group) were characterized by the expression loss of circRNA_0046367 in comparison to those in the normal group.
Method    qRT-PCR
Sample    HepG2

Function
Description  We uncover circRNA_0046367 to be endogenous modulator of miR-34a that underlies hepatic steatosis. In contrast to its expression loss during the hepatocellular steatosis in vivo and in vitro, circRNA_0046367 normalization abolished miR-34a inhibitory effect on peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ?? (PPAR??) via blocking the miRNA/mRNA interaction with miRNA response elements (MREs).
Method    gain of function

in vivo    Liver tissues of patients with hepatic steatosis

Interaction
Target    miR-34a
Type    circRNA-miRNA
Sample    HepG2 cells
Experiment    luciferase reporter assay
Description    These demonstrations provided substantial evidence for a direct, high-affinitive targeting of miR-34a by circRNA_0046367.
