Abstract Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play either oncogenic or tumor suppressive roles in gastric cancer (GC). A previous study demonstrated that circ_002059, a typical circRNA, was downregulated in GC tissues. However, the role and mechanism of circ_002059 in GC development are still unknown. In this study, the levels of circ_002059, miR-182, and metastasis suppressor-1 (MTSS1) were examined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis. Cell proliferation and migration were evaluated by MTT assay and Transwell migration assay, respectively. The interactions between miR-182 and circ_002059 or MTSS1 were analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. A GC xenograft model was established to validate the role of circ_002059 in GC progression in vivo. Overexpression of circ_002059 significantly inhibited, whereas knockdown of circ_002059 notably facilitated, cell proliferation and migration in GC cells. MTSS1 was found to be a direct target of miR-182 and circ_002059 upregulated MTSS1 expression by competitively sponging miR-182. Transfection with miR-182 mimic and MTSS1 silencing abated the inhibitory effect of circ_002059 on GC progression. Circ_002059 inhibited GC cell xenograft tumor growth by regulating miR-182 and MTSS1 expression. Collectively, Circ_002059 inhibited GC cell proliferation and migration in vitro and xenograft tumor growth in mice, by regulating the miR-182/MTSS1 axis.
