CircUHRF1 is upregulated in HCC tissues. a Heatmap showing UHRF1 gene-derived circRNAs in HCC tissues compared with matched adjacent nontumor tissues analyzed by qRT-PCR. b Schematic illustration of circUHRF1. c Differential expression of circUHRF1 in HCC tissues and adjacent nontumor tissues of 240 patients. d CircUHRF1 levels in 240 pairs of HCC and matched adjacent nontumor tissues, shown as log2 (T/N). e A total of 240 patients were divided into ≤5 cm and > 5 cm size groups. The diagram shows circUHRF1 expression in each group. f A total of 240 patients were divided into groups based on NK cell proportion in the blood (≤ 8% and > 8%). The diagram shows circUHRF1 expression in each group. g A total of 240 patients were divided into groups with or without microvascular invasion. The diagram shows circUHRF1 expression in each group. h and i Kaplan-Meier analysis of overall survival and recurrence in 240 patients with HCC according to circUHRF1 expression (log-rank test). Data are presented as the means ± SD of three independent experiments. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
