Existing research has confirmed the dysregulation of circular RNA (circRNA) in a wide variety of human diseases. Thus, in this study, we explored the potential mechanism of circRNA_0088196 in preeclampsia (PE). We performed quantitative real-time PCR to examine circRNA_0088196 expression and verified the function of circRNA_0088196 in vitro using CCK-8, TUNEL, flow cytometry, and Western blotting analyses.
