Research over the past decade suggested critical roles for circular RNAs in the natural growth and disease progression. However, it remains poorly defined whether the circular RNAs participate in Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). Here, we reported that the cir-ZNF609 was down-regulated in HSCR compared with normal bowel tissues. Furthermore, suppression of cir-ZNF609 inhibited the proliferation and migration of cells. We screened out several putative cir-ZNF609 ceRNAs of which the AKT3 transcript was selected. Finally, RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that cir-ZNF609 may act as a sponge for miR-150-5p to modulate the expression of AKT3. In conclusion, these findings illustrated that cir-ZNF609 took part in the onset of HSCR through the crosstalk with AKT3 by competing for shared miR-150-5p.

Circular RNA ZNF609 functions as a competitive endogenous RNA to regulate AKT3 expression by sponging miR-150-5p in Hirschsprung's disease
