Glioblastoma is a rare and deadly malignancy with a low survival rate. Emerging evidence has shown that aberrantly expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a critical role in the initiation and progression of GBM tumorigenesis. The oncogenic function of circZNF609 and circNFIX is involved in several types of cancer, but the role and underlying mechanism of these circRNAs in glioblastoma remain unclear. In this study, we hypothesized that circZNF609 and circNFIX may regulate EGFR through sponging miR-145-5p. Herein, we assessed the expression levels of circZNF609, circNFIX, miR-145-5p, and EGFR using quantitative polymerase chain reaction in glioblastoma patients and normal brain samples. The results showed that circZNF609, circNFIX, and EGFR expression levels were upregulated and miR145-5p was downregulated (p = 0.001, 0.06, 0.002, and 0.0065, respectively), while there was no significant association between clinicopathological features of the patients and the level of these genes expression. We also found a significant inverse correlation between miR145-5p and the expression of cZNF609, cNFIX and EGFR (p = 0.0003, 0.0006, and 0.009, respectively). These findings may open a new window for researchers to better understand the potential pathways involved in GBM pathogenesis. In conclusion, it may provide a new potential pathway for the development of effective drugs for the treatment of GBM patients.
