    • Abstract:
      Background: Temozolomide (TMZ) resistance is a serious hindrance in clinical chemotherapy for glioma. Circular RNA homeodomain interacting protein kinase 3 (circHIPK3) can be involved in regulating the progression of glioma, but the molecular mechanism of circHIPK3 in TMZ-resistant-glioma is completely unclear. Materials and Methods: The levels of circRNA, miRNA, and mRNA were examined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-y1)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay was used for assessing the half inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) of TMZ and cell proliferation. Cell apoptosis and metastasis (migration and invasion) were detected by flow cytometry and transwell assay, respectively. Western blot and dual-luciferase reporter assay were performed several times to analyze the expression levels of associated proteins and the targeted relation. Results: The upregulation of circHIPK3 was found in TMZ-resistant glioma tissues and cells. Both circHIPK3 knockdown and kinesin family member 2A (KIF2A) inhibition could facilitate TMZ sensitivity and apoptosis but repress proliferation and metastasis in TMZ-resistant glioma cells. CircHIPK3 targeted microRNA-524-5p (miR-524-5p) and KIF2A functioned as a downstream target of miR-524-5p. Decrease of miR-524-5p relieved the effects of si-circHIPK3 on TMZ-resistant glioma cells by upregulating KIF2A. Downregulation of circHIPK3 refrained the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signal pathway partly through miR-524-5p/KIF2A axis. Conclusions : Knockdown of circHIPK3 promoted TMZ sensitivity in glioma by modulating proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis through miR-524-5p/KIF2A-mediated PI3K/AKT pathway. CircHIPK3 may be the potential target for the diagnosis and therapy of TMZ-resistant glioma.
