Circ-ATP5H directly interacts with miR-138-5p. (A) The binding sites between circ-ATP5H and miR-138-5p were displayed. (B and C) Luciferase activity was tested in Huh7-1.3 and HepG2.2.15 cells co-transfected with WT-circ-ATP5H or MUT-circ-ATP5H and miR-NC or miR-138-5p. (D and E) The levels of circ-ATP5H and miR-138-5p were measured in Huh7-1.3 and HepG2.2.15 cells transfected with si-NC, si-circ-ATP5H, pcDNA or circ-ATP5H. Huh7-1.3 and HepG2.2.15 cells were introduced with si-NC, si-circ-ATP5H, si-circ-ATP5H+anti-miR-NC or si-circ-ATP5H+anti-miR-138-5p, and miR-138-5p expression (F), HBV DNA copies (G), HBsAg and HBeAg levels (H and I) were determined using appropriate methods. ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001.
