Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel type of endogenous noncoding RNA receiving
increasing attention. They have been shown to act as a natural microRNA sponges that
repress the activity of corresponding miRNAs by binding with them, thus regulating target
genes. Numerous studies have shown that miRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of
neurological diseases. Therefore, circRNAs may act as important regulatory factors in the
occurrence and development processes of neurological disease.
