Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a kind of RNA molecules involved in the regulation of cancer progression, including colorectal carcinoma (CRC); nevertheless, their regulation mode is blurry. In the present work, we attempted to reveal the characteristics of hsa_hsa_circ_0005100 in CRC. Methods Differential expressions of hsa_circ_0005100, FMN2 mRNA, microRNA‐145‐5p (miR‐145‐5p), and MACC1 were indicated by qRT‐PCR and Western blot. The capacities of cell growth and motility were validated by the MTT assay, flow cytometry assay, EdU assay, colony formation assay, and transwell assay. Moreover, the targeted relationship of miR‐145‐5p and hsa_circ_0005100 or MACC1 was distinguished by dual‐luciferase reporter assay. The animal experiment was implemented to confirm the influence of hsa_circ_0005100 on tumorigenesis in vivo. Results Hsa_circ_0005100 and MACC1 expression levels were increased, but miR‐145‐5p expression level was diminished in CRC. Hsa_circ_0005100 knockdown repressed cell proliferation, cell cycle, migration, and invasion, while expedited cell apoptosis in CRC cells. Furthermore, miR‐145‐5p was disclosed to block CRC via overturning MACC1 . Hsa_circ_0005100 targeted miR‐145‐5p to modulate MACC1 . Additionally, hsa_circ_0005100 knockdown also attenuated tumorigenesis in vivo. Conclusion Hsa_circ_0005100 was a vital regulator in the development of CRC by miR‐145‐5p /MACC1 axis, which deepened the understanding of CRC pathogenesis from circRNA insights.
