Circ_0001438 participates in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia via the circ_0001438/miR-942/NLRP3 regulatory network.

Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) is a common pregnancy disorder with multisystem complications. The growing data suggest that circular RNAs (circRNAs) involve in the development of PE. This study proposed to investigate the function and potential mechanisms of circ_0001438 in PE.
