An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) can regulate gene expression through interacting with microRNAs. In this study, we analyzed the expression of antisense to CDR1as in colorectal cancer (CRC). CDR1as had a higher expression in CRC tissues compared to adjacent, normal mucosa and was positively associated with tumor size, T stage, lymph node metastasis, and poor overall survival (OS). Downregulation of CDR1as suppressed CRC cell proliferation and invasion and increased microRNA-7 (miR-7) expression. Intriguingly, ectopic expression of miR-7 in CRC cells consistently inhibited proliferation and invasion, and the miR-7 inhibitor was able to rescue the function of CDR1as knockdown. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that CDR1as silencing suppressed EGFR and IGF-1R expression, which could be partially blocked by the miR-7 inhibitor. Finally, positive correlations between CDR1as expression and EGFR and IGF-1R expression were observed in CRC samples. Thus, given the importance of CDR1as in blocking miR-7 and positively regulating EGFR and IGF-1R, dysregulated CDR1as expression may play an important role in CRC progression.
