Forensic Context
A study in rats demonstrated that circSLC24A2 was significantly upregulated in the orbitofrontal cortex of female rats after heroin self-administration, a finding validated in a combined sex analysis, while its linear mRNA counterpart was not regulated [Floris et al. DOI:10.3390/ijms23031453]. CircRNAs, including the circSLC24A2, exhibit stability in postmortem tissues and body fluids, supporting their potential for forensic body-fluid identification and postmortem interval estimation [Tian et al. DOI:10.3390/molecules26041155].
