The microarray identification circular RNA hsa_circ_0105015 up-regulated involving inflammation pathway in essential hypertension.

Background: Essential hypertension (EH) is an inflammatory disease, and endothelial dysfunction induced by chronic inflammation is one of the pathogeneses of EH. The expression of some inflammatory mediators may be regulated by the interaction of circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs).

Methods: An Agilent human circRNA microarray was used to identify the expression profile of circRNAs in EH.

Microarray Profiling of Circular RNA Identifies hsa_circ_0126991 as a Potential Risk Factor for Essential Hypertension.

Essential hypertension (EH), a major cause of cardiovascular diseases, is an important public health issue. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in EH remain unknown. Circular RNA (circRNA) is a novel promising biomarker for the disease.

Up-regulation of circular RNA hsa_circ_0037909 promotes essential hypertension.

Aims: Essential hypertension (EH) is a high prevalence disease facing a public health challenge. People were little known about the genetics of diagnosing the cause of EH. Circular RNAs that have a continuous cycle of covalent closure, without affected by RNA exonuclease, and are more stable and hard to degrade may involve into the molecule regulation mechanism of EH as an important biomedical.

Circular RNA hsa_circ_0014243 may serve as a diagnostic biomarker for essential hypertension.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have a great potential as clinical biomarkers; however, specific circRNAs with a diagnostic value for essential hypertension (EH) largely remain to be identified. In the present study, the potential application of (hsa)_circ_0014243, which was identified to be significantly upregulated in whole blood samples of EH patients in a previous microarray profiling study by our group, in the diagnosis of EH was evaluated. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis was performed to determine the expression levels of hsa_circ_0014243 and hsa-microRNA (miR)-10a-5p in a total of 178 blood samples collected from 89 healthy controls and 89 patients diagnosed with EH.

A potential risk factor of essential hypertension in case-control study: MicroRNAs miR-10a-5p.

: Essential hypertension is a multifactorial disease with high morbidity. The researches on the influence of genes on the disease are still in its infancy, and the mechanism of gene regulation is not clear. MiRNAs are key molecules that regulate the expression control of protein-coding or protein-non-coding RNA.

Hypomethylation of the Interferon γ Gene as a Potential Risk Factor for Essential Hypertension: A Case-Control Study.

Essential hypertension (EH) is a multifactorial disease. Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) plays an important role in the onset of EH through cytokine-mediated systemic inflammatory responses. We aimed to determine whether the methylation status of the IFN-γ gene (IFNG) promoter is involved in the pathogenesis of EH.

A potential risk factor of essential hypertension in case-control study: Circular RNA hsa_circ_0037911.

Background: Essential hypertension (EH) is a high prevalence with multifactorial diseases. Human studies on the impact of genes on this disease are just in the initial stage, the mechanism of gene regulation is still remains unclear. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) as a continuous cycle of covalent closure, RNA molecules added to the 3'-5' end covalently bound by the formation of incidental event.

Hypothesis of active components in volatile oil from a Chinese herb formulation, 'Shao-Fu-Zhu-Yu decoction', using GC-MS and chemometrics.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with few or no side effects has increasingly attracted attention all over the world. However, the bioactive components and the therapeutic mechanisms are usually not understood because of the complex chemical compositions of these medicines. In this paper, GC-MS coupled with a chemometric method was developed for analysis of active components in volatile oil from a Chinese herb formulation, "Shao-Fu-Zhu-Yu Decoction".
