CASP5 is a downstream target gene of miR-527 in HGFs.

(a) Bioinformatics predicted the binding sites between miR-527 and CASP5. Identification of the interaction between miR-527 and CAPS5 by dual-luciferase reporter assay (b) and RNA pull-down assay (c). CAPS5 expression levels in HGFs transfected with sh-circ_0138959 and antagomiR-527 (d), PDL tissues of patients with periodontitis (e), and LPS-treated HGFs (f). **P < 0.01, vs. agomiR-nc, biotin-nc, sh-nc, healthy, and control groups. ##P < 0.01, vs. sh-circ_0138959+ antagomiR-nc group.
