m6A modification of circHPS5 and hepatocellular carcinoma progression through HMGA2 expression

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is capable of mediating circRNA generation in carcinoma biology. Nevertheless, the posttranscriptional systems of m6A and circRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development are still unclear. The present study identified a circRNA with m6A modification, circHPS5, which was increased in neoplasm HCC tissues and indicated poor patient survival. Silencing of circHPS5 inhibited epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and...
