Abstract:
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and circular RNA (circRNA) are two important types of non-coding RNA that can regulate gene expression by directly interacting with DNA, RNA or protein. A large number of studies have shown that lncRNA and circRNA can not only predict the prognosis of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but also affect the sensitivity of ESCC to radiotherapy and chemotherapy through competing endogenous RNA mechanisms, regulating PI3K/Akt/mTOR and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways, participating in DNA and protein modification, regulating the cell cycle and other pathways. In-depth research on the mechanism of lncRNA and circRNA regulating the sensitivity of ESCC to radiotherapy and chemotherapy will improve the effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in ESCC patients.
