Circular RNAs Are Promising Biomarkers in Liquid Biopsy for the Diagnosis of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

The high incidence and mortality of lung cancer make early detection of lung cancer particularly important. At present, the diagnosis of lung cancer mainly depends on diagnostic imaging and tissue biopsy. However, current diagnostics are not satisfactory owing to the low specificity and inability of...

description The high incidence and mortality of lung cancer make early detection of lung cancer particularly important. At present, the diagnosis of lung cancer mainly depends on diagnostic imaging and tissue biopsy. However, current diagnostics are not satisfactory owing to the low specificity and inability of multiple sampling. Accumulating evidence indicates that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a critical role in cancer progression and are promising cancer biomarkers. In particular, circRNAs are considered novel specific diagnostic markers for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Liquid biopsy is an important method in the early diagnosis of cancer due to its high sensitivity and specificity, as well as the possibility of performing multiple sampling. circRNAs are stably present in exosomes and sometimes become part of circulating nucleic acids, making them ideal for liquid biopsy. In this review, we summarize the advances in the research on circRNAs in NSCLC, and also highlight their potential applications for NSCLC detection.
