In this scoping review, the authors summarize the literature on circRNA in neuropsychiatric disorders and add clinical context. The authors searched PubMed, PsycInfo, Embase, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for articles describing research on circRNA and mental disorders published in or after 2012. The authors included peer-reviewed studies with substantive discussions of circRNA and mental disorders that included human participants or cell lines.

Common and serious neuropsychiatric illnesses were well represented among these studies, including schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and major neurocognitive disorder. Many studies identified altered circRNA levels in peripheral blood and specific brain regions that were both sensitive to and specific for neuropsychiatric disorders. Few studies discussed the role that circRNA-based diagnostic tests might play in clinical practice, and research on prognostic, therapeutic, or monitoring biomarkers was limited.
