CircCCDC66 promotes the progression and EMT of renal cell carcinoma via the miR-1278/HOXA13 axis

Key Points

• CircCCDC66 promotes tumor progression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in renal cell carcinoma.
• Important metrics show that higher levels of CircCCDC66 correlate with advanced cancer stages.
• Assessment of molecular pathways revealed the role of the miR-1278/HOXA13 axis in cancer progression.
• Findings highlight potential for targeting CircCCDC66 in therapeutic strategies against renal cell carcinoma.
