Abstract

Abstract : Oxidative stress (OxS) is a wildly described cause of damage to macromolecules, resulting in abnormal physiological conditions. In recent years, a few studies have shown that oxidation/antioxidation imbalance plays a significant role in developing diseases involving different systems and organs. However, the research on the circular RNA (circRNA) roles in OxS is still in its very infancy. Therefore, we hope to provide a comprehensive overview of the recent research that explored the function of circRNAs associated with OxS and its role in the pathogenesis of different diseases that affect different body systems like the nervous system, cardiovascular system, kidneys, and lungs. It provides the possibilities of using these circRNAs as superior diagnostic and therapeutic options for OxS associated with these disease conditions.
