The intersection of RNA sequencing data and GSE97332 included circRERE and circUBAP2 (upregulated) and circPPP6R3 (downregulated), and according to all four datasets, circUBAP2 was significantly upregulated in the CXCL11-treated HCC cells or HCC tissues (Fig. 3E). This evidence concerns the gene CXCL11 and hepatocellular carcinoma.
