Abstract The diagnosis and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are not ideal. We identified NSCLC-related has_circ_0006423 in database. qRT-PCR was used to measure expression levels of hsa_circ_0006423 and miR-492 in the plasma and tissue samples, and 3 NSCLC cell lines, respectively. We analyzed the relationship between expression levels of hsa_circ_0006423 and clinicopathological factors and miR-492 expression in plasma and tissue samples. Assess the diagnostic value of hsa_circ_0006423 and miR-492 in NSCLC. Cell function vitro experiment to explore the effect of has_circ_0006423 on NSCLC. We found has_circ_0006423 is lower expressed in NSCLC and miR-492 is opposite, has_circ_0006423 and miR-492 has diagnostic value in NSCLC. In A549 and NCI-H1299 cells, hsa_circ_0006423 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells by sponging miR-492 and accelerating NSCLC cell apoptosis. This effect may be due to the combination of has_circ_0006423 and miR-492 affecting the progression of NSCLC.
