Circular Logic: Engineering Next-Generation Circular RNA Therapeutics for Precision Oncology.
This review argues that circular topology should be viewed as an active pharmacologic variable, not merely a stability enhancement, and dissect recent advances in cap-independent translation initiation, including IRES elements and m6A-driven mechanisms, rolling-circle translation for multi-epitope vaccine design, and programmable stability circuits that integrate tumor-microenvironment cues such as miRNA signatures.
