Aberrant expression of interleukin-23-regulated miRNAs in T cells from patients with ankylosing spondylitis
21 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Interleukin (IL)-23 can facilitate the differentiation of IL-17-producing helper T cells (Th17). The IL-23/IL-17 axis is known to play a key role in the immunopathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). We hypothesized that the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) would be regulated by IL-23 and that these miRNAs could participate in the immunopathogenesis of AS. METHODS: Expression profiles of...
