Circ102049 promoted the adhesion, migration and invasion of CRC cells. (A,B) GSEA analysis showed that metastasis‐related signaling such as adherens junctions, TGF‐β signaling, ribosome and Notch signaling were closely correlated with circ10249. (C) The circ102049 overexpression vector was efficient by qRT‐PCR analysis. (D,E) The proliferative ability was determined by the CCK‐8 assay. (F,G) The colony formation assay was performed and calculated. (H,I) The apoptotic rates of CRC cells were determined through Annexin‐V staining. (J) The ability of cell adhesion was determined. (K–N) The ability of cell migration and invasion was determined; Scale bar = 10 μm (*P < 0.05; error bars represent standard deviation).
