Cervical cancer (CC) is a prominent cancer around the globe, with a high incidence, and fatality rate. Numerous recent investigations have shown that various non-coding RNAs are associated with the progression of CC. Circular RNAs, a novel class of non-coding RNAs, have a single chain covalent closed-loop structure and are involved in cell growth and other physiological processes. These dysregulated circRNAs seem to have environment-specific functions. They have been demonstrated in certain studies to have a dual involvement in oncogene production and tumor inhibition in different cell settings. Simultaneously, some evidence indicates that circRNAs are abnormally expressed in CC and contributes to its progression. Thus, the distinctive expression profile of circRNAs is associated with the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment outcomes of CC. We summarized numerous CC-specific circles and their function in revealing the molecular processes of carcinogenesis and progression in CC in this review. Taken together, these data suggest that circRNA may be used as an early detection biomarker and potential therapeutic target in patients with CC.

Background: The metal oxide nanoparticles possess unique properties such as biological compatibility, superior reactivity, and capacity to develop reactive oxygen species, due to this they have drawn significant interest in cancer treatment. The various MONPs such as cerium oxide, Copper oxide, Iron oxide, Titanium dioxide, and Zinc oxide have been investigated for several types of cancers including brain, breast, cervical, colon, leukemia, liver, lung, melanoma, ovarian, and prostate cancers. However, traditional physiochemical synthetic methods for MONPs commonly include toxic materials, a major concern that raises questions regarding their biocompatibility and safety.

Resistance to the currently available treatment paradigms is one of the main factors that contributes to poor outcomes in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Novel targeted therapy approaches might enhance the patient's treatment outcome and are urgently needed for this malignancy. While chimeric-antigen receptor (CAR)-based adoptive immunotherapy displays a promising treatment strategy for liquid cancers, their use against cervical cancer is largely unexplored.

Purpose: The National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) provides access to timely breast and cervical cancer screening and diagnostic services to women who have low incomes and are uninsured or underinsured. Documenting the number of women eligible and the proportion of eligible women who receive NBCCEDP-funded services is important for identifying opportunities to increase screening and diagnostic services among those who would not otherwise have access.
Methods: Using the Census Bureau's Small Area Health Insurance Estimates data, we estimated the number of women who met the NBCCEDP eligibility criteria based on age, income, and insurance status.
The Diverse Roles of Long Non-Coding RNA HOTTIP in Breast and Gynecological Cancer Progression.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in the development and progression of various tumors through multiple mechanisms. Among these, HOTTIP (HOXA transcript at the distal tip) stands out as an intriguing candidate with diverse functions in several malignancies, including breast cancer and gynecologic cancers such as ovarian, cervical, and endometrial cancers, which are significant global health concerns. HOTTIP interacts with key signaling pathways associated with these cancers, including Wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/AKT, and MEK/ERK pathways, enhancing their activation and downstream effects.
