ABSTRACTAlthough gemcitabine (GEM) is the cornerstone of the treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC), GEM resistance frequently arises. Circular RNA (circRNA) circ_0075829 is highly expressed in PC. However, whether circ_0075829 contributes to GEM resistance of PC is largely unknown. To generate GEM‐resistant PC cells (BxPC‐3/GR and SW1990/GR), we exposed GEM‐sensitive PC cells to GEM. Circ_0075829, microRNA (miR)‐326, and glutamic‐oxaloacetic transaminase 1 (GOT1) were quantified by a qRT‐PCR or western blot method. Cell survival and viability were gauged by MTS assay. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration were assessed by EdU, flow cytometry, transwell, and wound‐healing assays, respectively. Dual‐luciferase reporter assays were used to verify the relationship between miR‐326 and circ_0075829 or GOT1. Mouse xenografts were performed to evaluate the role of circ_0075829 in vivo. Our data showed that circ_0075829 was upregulated in GEM‐resistant PC tissues and cells. Knockdown of circ_0075829 impeded the proliferation, invasion, migration, and glutamine metabolism, and promoted cell apoptosis and GEM sensitivity of GEM‐resistant PC cells. Moreover, circ_0075829 silencing suppressed the tumorigenicity of SW1990/GR cells and sensitized them to the cytotoxic effect of GME in vivo. Mechanistically, circ_0075829 bound miR‐326 and exerted regulatory effects by affecting miR‐326 expression. GOT1 was a direct miR‐326 target and a key downstream effector of miR‐326. Furthermore, circ_0075829 modulated GOT1 expression via miR‐326. Our findings establish a novel regulatory network, the circ_0075829/miR‐326/GOT1 competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) crosstalk, in the regulation of GEM resistance in PC.
