    AbstractThe correlation among circular RNAs (circRNAs), microRNAs, and messenger RNAs have gained increasing attention in recent years. However, the mechanism of such discoveries in colorectal cancer (CRC) is not yet elucidated. The present study aimed to clarify whether the novel circRNAs regulate the prognosis-related genes through the competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA). An analysis of the Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis was conducted to screen a module-trait circRNAs, and other big data mining technologies were used to predict the related microRNAs and the downstream genes. Prognosis-related gene model was built using the Cox regression analysis for the 138 messenger RNAs associated with hsa circ 0046430. The qRT-PCR was adopted to verify ceRNA network. Immunohistochemistry verified the correlation between SRCIN1 and patient prognosis. In summary, these results demonstrated that hsa_circ_0046430 is a tumor-related circRNA based on the clinical characteristics module of Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis. The prognostic risk score signature model analysis indicated that CRC risk was independently related to the risk score and SRCIN1 was independently associated with overall survival. Therefore, the hsa_circ_0046430/miR-6785-5p/SRCIN1 axis was constructed. Hsa_circ_0046430/miR-6785-5p/SRCIN1 axis relative expression level was determined by qRT-PCR. Immunohistochemical staining further validated that SCRIN1 was significantly higher in cancer than in adjacent normal tissues. Our study identified and primarily validated the hsa_circ_0046430/miR-6785-5p/SRCIN1 regulatory axis impacted on CRC prognosis, suggesting novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for CRC patients. Further in-depth studies are essential to confirm the underlying ceRNA mechanism.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
