Schematic representation of the possible mechanism of circPPAP2B in ccRCC metastasis CircPPAP2B is derived from exons 3 to 5 of the PPAP2B gene through backsplicing in the nucleus. CircPPAP2B not only interacts with HNRNPC in an m6A-dependent manner to facilitate HNRNPC nuclear translocation via stabilizing HNRNPC/Vimentin/Importin α7 ternary complex, but also functions as a miRNA sponge to directly bind to miR-182-5p and modulate CYP1B1 expression, thereby promoting cancer metastasis in ccRCC
