Background: Recent studies have found that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in tumorigenesis. This study aimed to determine the function and potential mechanisms of hsa_circ_0001615 in esophageal cancer.
Methods: Quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to validate the expression of hsa_circ_0001615 and miR-142-5p.
