CircTUBGCP5 promoted the malignant behaviors and glycolysis in LCa cells through the miR-144-3p/ACSL4 axis. A and B Cell proliferation, C apoptosis, D Caspase-3 activity, E Caspase-9 activity, F glucose uptake, G lactate production, H and I ACSL4, c-myc, and GLUT1 protein level in Huh-7 and HCCLM3 cells after silencing circTUBGCP5 in the presence or absence of anti-miR-144-3p or pcDNA-ACSL4. Data were expressed as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
