Thus, efficient diagnosis and treatment methods are crucial for advanced melanoma. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been regarded as a 'splicing noise' in the past decades. However, several circRNAs have been recently reported to be differentially expressed in melanoma, and the cell or tissue-specific expression makes these suitable candidate diagnostic or therapeutic biomarkers. In addition, emerging studies have confirmed that circular RNAs play pivotal roles in the proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and migration of malignant melanoma. However, specific pathogenic mechanisms between melanoma and circRNAs remain unclear. In the present study, it was summarized that circRNAs are associated with the pathogenesis of melanoma, including hsa_circ_0083444, hsa_circ_0005320, hsa_circ_0067531, hsa_circ_0084043, hsa_circ_0000082, hsa_cirt 0016418, hsa_circ_0085533 and hsacirc_0025039, hsa_circ_0001946, hsa_circ0002770, hsa_circ_0079593, hsacirc_0027247, hsa_circ_0017247, hsacirc_0020710. These can provide potential diagnosis, treatment, and prognostication biomarkers for advanced melanoma in clinical applications. 收起
