Article Abstract
Circular RNA (circRNA) has a closed-loop structure, and its 3' and 5' ends are directly covalently connected by reverse splicing, which is more stable than linear RNA. CircRNAs usually possess microRNA (miRNA) binding sites, which can bind miRNAs and inhibit miRNA function. Many studies have shown that circRNAs are involved in the processes of cell senescence, proliferation and apoptosis and a series of signalling pathways, playing an important role in the prevention and treatment of diseases. CircRNAs are potential biological diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). To identify biomarkers and potential effective therapeutic targets without toxicity for heart disease, we summarize the biogenesis, biology, characterization and functions of circRNAs in CVDs, hoping that this information will shed new light on the prevention and treatment of CVDs.

In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in the incidence of thyroid carcinoma (TC). Our study focuses on the regulatory effect of circular RNAs on metabolism of TC, aiming to provide new insights into the mechanisms of progression and a potential therapeutic target for TC. In this study, we identified high expression levels of circPSD3 in TC tissues through RNA sequencing.

Circular RNA (circRNA) has been confirmed to be a regulator for septic acute kidney injury (AKI). It is reported that circ_0049271 has abnormal expression in AKI patients, but its role and mechanism in septic AKI remain unclear. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated HK-2 cells were served as the cellular model of sepsis-associated AKI (SAKI).

Backgrounds: Head and neck cancer is among the top ten cancers worldwide, with most lesions in the oral cavity. Oral squamous cell carcinoma accounts for more than 90% of all oral malignancies and is a significant public health concern. Circular RNA and micro RNA, as non-coding RNA, plays an important role in the development of tumor transmission.

Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN), a severe microvascular complication of diabetes, is closely associated with neuroinflammation. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of circ_0002590 in neuroinflammation associated with PDN.The Schwann cells (HEI193) were treated with high glucose (HG, 150 mM) to simulate the diabetic microenvironment.

Objectives: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs with diverse pathophysiological functions. However, the functional roles and molecular mechanisms of circRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain to be further elucidated.
Methods: The expression levels of Circ_0007552 (Circ_RILPL1), miR-7974, and BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) mRNA in LUAD tissues and cells were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR).
