    Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable, covalently closed RNA molecules that regulate cancer progression through various mechanisms.

  • 2

    Ferroptosis is a regulated cell death process that influences cancer development and therapeutic resistance.

  • 3

    CircRNAs act as molecular bridges linking ferroptosis and anti-tumor immunity, facilitating dual regulation of both pathways.

  • 4

    The interaction between ferroptosis and immunity is critical in shaping the tumor immune microenvironment and therapeutic outcomes.

  • 5

    CircRNAs have potential as non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets in precision cancer therapy.
