Abstract
Neurological disorders are increasingly recognized as major causes of death and disability worldwide. Among different types of treatment options, circRNAs might play vital roles in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ischemic brain injury, and neurotoxicity. However, the mechanisms of action of circRNAs have not been fully characterized. Based on current research, this review article outlines the involvement of various circRNAs in brain development and CNS diseases. A better understanding of the circRNA function will help to develop novel therapeutic strategies to treat CNS complications.
