Sumario: | Abstract Although mechanistic studies clarifying the molecular underpinnings of AML have facilitated the development of several novel targeted therapeutics, most AML patients still relapse. Thus, overcoming the inherent and acquired resistance to current therapies remains an unsolved clinical problem. While current diagnostic modalities are primarily defined by gross morphology, cytogenetics, and to an extent, by deep targeted gene sequencing, there is an ongoing demand to identify newer diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic biomarkers for AML. Recent interest in exploring the role of circular RNA (circRNA) in elucidating AML biology and therapy resistance has been promising. This review discerns the circular RNAs’ evolving role on the same scientific premise and attempts to identify its potential in managing AML. |
