Profiling and bioinformatics analyses reveal differential circular RNA expression in hypertensive patients
23 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: CircRNAs, a novel class of noncoding RNAs, have been reported in many diseases. However, their role in hypertension remains unclear. Here, we aimed to determine the circRNA expression profile in hypertension patients and further construct a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network for mechanism exploration. METHODS: Plasma circRNA expression profiles were screened by circRNA microarrays and verified by qRT-PCR...
