EGFR and lung adenocarcinoma: Direct regulation of circRNAs is also possible; for example, in a study on the previously mentioned circRNA CCDC66 in lung adenocarcinoma resistance, the expression of SAE2 was mainly regulated by EGFR, whereas the expression of circRNA CCDC66 was positively regulated by FAK and c-Met and negatively regulated by nAchR7α.
