Abstract

MOTIVATION: With the analysis of the characteristic and function of circular RNAs (circRNAs), people have realized that they play a critical role in the diseases. Exploring the relationship between circRNAs and diseases is of far-reaching significance for searching the etiopathogenesis and treatment of diseases. Nevertheless, it is inefficient to learn new associations only through biotechnology.
