Abstract:
CircRNA(circular RNA) is a new class of covalently closed circular non-coding RNAs, with the function of the microRNA sponge, regulation of gene expression, and other functions. Studies have confirmed that circRNAs are involved in the occurrence and progression of a variety of tumors, and can be used as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for tumor diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. In this paper, the expression and mechanism of circRNA in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma are reviewed.
