Circ_0003972 Promotes the Proliferation and Inflammation of Fibroblast-like Synovial Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis through Regulation of the miR-654-5p/FZD4 Axis.

Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been shown to play an important role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) progression. This study aims to explore the role and mechanism of circ_0003972 in RA progression.

Methods: Quantitative real-time PCR was used to determine gene expression.
