Psoriasis is a chronic inflammation-associated skin disorder featured by excessive proliferation and abnormal differentiation of keratinocytes. Here, we intended to investigate the role of circular RNA 0061012 (circ_0061012) in psoriasis progression. The expression of circ_0061012, SLMO2-ATP5E readthrough (SLMO2-ATP5E) messenger RNA (mRNA), microRNA-194-5p (miR-194-5p) and GRB2 associated binding protein 1 (GAB1) mRNA was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation and metastasis were analyzed by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and transwell assays. Western blot assay was used to measure the protein levels of Ki67, matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) and GAB1. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immune co-precipitation (RIP) assay were used to verify the interaction between miR-194-5p and circ_0061012 or GAB1. Circ_0061012 abundance was significantly enhanced in lesional skin samples from psoriasis patients than that in normal skin specimens from healthy volunteers. Interleukin-22 (IL-22) treatment increased the expression of circ_0061012 in a dose-dependent manner. Circ_0061012 silencing alleviated IL-22-induced promoting effects in the proliferation, migration and invasion of HaCaT cells. Circ_0061012 interacted with miR-194-5p, and miR-194-5p knockdown counteracted circ_0061012 silencing-mediated influences in IL-22-induced HaCaT cells. GAB1 was a target of miR-194-5p in HaCaT cells, and miR-194-5p hampered proliferation and metastasis which were induced by IL-22 partly through targeting GAB1. Circ_0061012 elevated the expression of GAB1 through sponging miR-194-5p in HaCaT cells. Circ_0061012 accelerated IL-22-induced proliferation and metastasis in HaCaT cells through enhancing GAB1 expression via sponging miR-194-5p in psoriasis.

Circ_0061012 contributes to IL-22-induced proliferation, migration and invasion in keratinocytes through miR-194-5p/GAB1 axis in psoriasis
