Mutations in the Additional Sex Combs Like 1 (ASXL1) gene were first reported in myelodysplastic syndromes. Recent studies have clarified the relationship between ASXL1 mutations and the development of cancers. This study aims to review the roles of ASXL1 and ASXL1 CircRNAs, such as epigenetic regulation, chromatin modification, and transcription factor function in malignancies. This study is a review of articles related to the role of ASXL1 and ASXL1 CircRNAs in malignancies, retrieved from PubMed and Scopus. ASXL1 plays a role in malignancies and is also related to poor overall survival and cancer metastasis. ASXL1 encodes conserved and abundant Circular RNAs (circRNAs) that act as post-transcriptional regulators, regulating tumorigenesis and progression in cancer. ASXL1 circRNA was identified in the top 10% of differentially expressed circRNAs in clinically relevant tissues. Additionally, the role of ASXL1 gene circRNAs in cancer development is reviewed in this study. ASXL1 and ASXL1circRNA have dual functions in combination with different proteins, being involved in both transcriptional activation and repression in a context-dependent manner. Moreover, studies indicate these genes play an important role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis. Ongoing research is aimed at determining this gene family's function in biological events. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
