Abstract

CircRNA, a kind of tissue specific and covalently closed circular non-coding RNA is very abundant in eukaryocyte. Generally, circRNA is generated by back-splicing of protein-coding genes' pre-mRNA. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. Due to the characteristics of poor prognosis and high recurrence, the pathogenesis of HCC is highly concerned by researchers worldwide. Recent studies demonstrated that numerous circRNAs were differentially expressed in HCC tissues and normal liver tissues, which is closely related with the development and prognosis of HCC. However, the mechanism of circRNA in HCC remains unclear. In this review, we summarized the abnormal expressions of circRNAs in HCC, discussed its role, and potential mechanisms, and tried to explore the prospective values of circRNA in the diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis of HCC.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 August 2018.
All research outputs
#22,867,974
of 25,498,750 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in oncology
#16,070
of 22,603 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#300,240
of 342,833 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in oncology
#136
of 167 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,498,750 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 22,603 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 342,833 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 167 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
