AbstractCircular RNAs (circRNAs), widely found in human cells, are involved in disease and play an important role in progression. To determine whether circRNAs are related in essential hypertension (EH), we analyzed the expression profile of circRNAs and miRNAs in 5 EH and 5 healthy controls cases which were screened by microarray. Through microarray data and public data analysis, differently expressed transcripts were divided into modules, and circRNAs were functionally annotated by miRNAs. The expression of two circRNAs, has_circ_0037909 and has_circ_0105015, were validated in EH by qRT-PCR, which may be associated with EH. Further analysis showed that two circRNAs might through immune system by up-regulation circRNAs and down-regulation expression. These circRNAs biological functions need to be further validated.
