SOX12 and acute myeloid leukemia: Shang et al. found that the expression of circ_0012152 was enhanced in AML tissues and cells, circ_0012152 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell apoptosis and facilitated death in AML cells by regulating miR-625-5p/SOX12 axis (Shang et al., 2021) (Figure 4A).
