Growing studies have demonstrated that circRNAs (circular RNAs) act potential roles in tumor metastasis and progression. However, the expression and function of circ_0006404 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain to be investigated. The expression of circ_0006404 and miR-624 was detected by qRT-PCR. CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry, and wound healing were performed to determine cell proliferation, cycle, and migration. The target of circ_0006404 was studied by bioinformatics and luciferase activity analysis. Our data indicated that circ_0006404 was overexpressed in HCC specimens and cells and ectopic expression of circ_0006404 increased HCC cell growth, cycle, and migration. Moreover, we showed that miR-624 was downregulated in HCC specimens and cells and miR-624 expression was negatively correlated with circ_0006404 expression in HCC specimens. Circ_0006404 sponged miR-624 in HCC cell, and the overexpression of circ_0006404 suppressed miR-624 expression in HCC cell. Furthermore, circ_0006404 induced HCC cell growth, cycle, and migration via regulating miR-624. These results elucidated that circ_0006404 facilitated HCC progression and might act as one new biomarker for this carcinoma.
