Résumé

Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) has emerged as a central focus in molecular biology, with various types being found across species through advanced techniques, including high-throughput sequencing. This dynamic molecule exerts significant influence on aging and immune function and plays pivotal roles in autoimmune diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cancer, and genetic disorders. This comprehensive review investigates the classification, characteristics, formation processes, and multifaceted functions of eccDNA, providing an in-depth exploration of its mechanisms in diverse diseases. The goal of this review is to establish a robust theoretical foundation for a more comprehensive understanding of eccDNA, offering valuable insights for the development of clinical diagnostics and innovative therapeutic strategies in the context of related diseases.
