Extrachromosomal circular DNAs are common and functional in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract

This study demonstrated the genome-wide presence of eccDNAs, explored the differential expression of eccDNAs, and revealed the potential mechanisms of eccDNAs in ESCC. This work provides further insights into our understanding of genome plasticity, the role of eccDNAs in ESCC, and may contribute to the development of potential clinical therapies.
