Article Abstract

The mRNA vaccine has emerged as a powerful tool against viral infection during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In the post-COVID-19 era, the applications of mRNA-based therapy continue to expand and evolve. Circular RNA (circRNA), long assumed to be a noncoding RNA, has been proven to be translatable and subsequently developed as a next-generation mRNA modality due to its higher stability and wider therapeutic window. Nonetheless, the studies of circRNA translation and its application in diseases still present numerous technical features and challenges. In this chapter, we provide a summary and discussion on the mechanisms of circRNA translation and its applications in medicine development, aiming to serve as a reference and inspiration for readers interested in circRNA-based therapy.

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.

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).
