Abstract

The oncogenic role of circRNAs has been well-studied in cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, tumor-suppressive circRNAs and the mechanism through which they exert their anti-tumor effects remain largely unknown. We aim to find out the critical tumor-suppressive circRNAs and their possibility to serve as gene therapy targets. CircRNA sequencing, gain- and loss- of function experiments,and transcriptomic analysis were performed to find tumor-suppressive and anti-tumor immunity effects of circRERE. Molecular biology experiments were conducted for mechanism exploration. Finally, we conducted adeno-associated virus to deliver circRERE (circRERE-AAV) and evaluated circRERE-AAV alone and in combination with anti-PD-1 antibody in C57BL/6J mice bearing subcutaneous MC38 tumors. CircRERE is lowly expressed in CRC. Overexpression of circRERE inhibits the malignant behaviors of CRC in vitro and in vivo, while knockdown exhibits the opposite effects. The expression of circRERE is regulated by EP300, a histone acetyltransferase downregulated in CRC as well. Mechanistically, circRERE acts as a ceRNA to sponge miR-6837-3p to upregulate MAVS expression, thereby activating type I IFN signaling and promoting anti-tumor immunity. Delivery of circRERE-AAV elicits significant anti-tumor effects, and combination treatment with circRERE-AAV and anti-PD-1 antibody exhibits synergistic effects on tumor growth in preclinical models of CRC. These results uncover modulatory axis constituting of EP300/circRERE/miR-6837-3p/MAVS and its essential roles in anti-tumor immunity, and demonstrate that circRERE-AAV might represent a new therapeutic avenue to prime immune responses and boost the effects of immunotherapy in clinic.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 June 2023.
All research outputs
#7,950,710
of 23,932,490 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Cancer Research
#7,061
of 12,870 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#139,825
of 401,917 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Cancer Research
#55
of 86 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,932,490 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,870 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.3. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 401,917 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 62% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 86 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
