Background:   In recent years, accumulating studies have found that circular RNA (circRNA) exerts a great effect on tumor progression. Circ_0000215, a novel circRNA, remains largely unknown in terms of its effect and mechanism in glioma.Method:   Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was carried out to detect the expressions of circ_0000215, miR-495-3p and CXCR2 in human glial cell line HEB and glioma cell lines (A172, U251, U87, SHG-44, LN-18), human glioma tissues and adjacent healthy tissues. Gain- and loss-assays of circ_0000215 were conducted. Cell proliferation ability was detected via the CCK8 assay, and cell invasion ability was examined by Transwell assay. CXCR2 expression was evaluated via RT-PCR and Western blot. Moreover, bioinformatics was applied to analyze the targeting molecules of circ_0000215 and CXCR2. Verification of the relationship between these molecules were supported through the dual-luciferase reporter gene and RNA immunocoprecipitation (RIP) assay.Results:   Circ_0000215 and CXCR2 were remarkably upregulated in glioma tissues and cells. Overexpression of circ_0000215 notably promoted the proliferation, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) but inhibited apoptosis of glioma cells, while knocking down circ_0000215 had the opposite effects. Additionally, miR-495-3p, a sponge RNA of circ_0000215, inhibited the growth, invasion and EMT of glioma cells. Mechanistically, miR-495-3p targeted CXCR2 and negatively regulated CXCR2/PI3K/Akt pathway. However, the effects of miR-495-3p were all dampened by overexpression of circ_0000215.Conclusion:   These data demonstrated that circ_0000215 functions as a competitive endogenous RNA by sponging miR-495-3p, thus accelerating glioma progression through CXCR2 axis.
