Gao et al. revealed that has_circ‐0018289 mediates cervical cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and migration via acting as a molecular sponge for miR-497 [12], Song T et al. elucidated the role of hsa_circRNA_101996 in cervical cancer development through regulating miR-8075/TPX2 axis [13], Tang Q et al. demonstrated that hsa_circ_0000515 mediates cervical cancer progression via miR-326/ELK1 pathway [14]. Here, ELK1 is linked to cervical cancer.
