The miR-223: An Inflammatory MicroRNA Involved in Pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis
Authors
Abstract:
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. Dysregulation or mutation of miRNA genes have been linked to the pathogenesis of MS. The miRNAs are short, 20-22 nucleotide long, single-stranded regulatory and non-protein coding RNAs that modulate the expression of multiple target genes. Among miRNAs, miR-223 has been reported to play a critical role in MS. This review concentrates on the emerging role of miR-223 in inflammatory responses and specifically discusses how alterations in miR-223 expression are associated with the development of MS. This review also suggests that miR-223 can be used as a biomarker for diagnosis of MS and discovering novel therapeutics for MS treatment.

Circulating miR-193b-3p and miR-376a-3p Involved in Iranian Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease that affects the central nervous system. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that are usually 18-24 nucleotides long, which may have a pivotal role in the expansion of many complex diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the transcript levels of miR-193b-3p and miR-376a-3p in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) ...

Th1 lymphocytes produce cytokines such as IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-α, TNF-β and GM-CSF and play an important role in the increase of delaying sensitivity and defense against intracellular pathogens. IFN-γ is the most important Th1 cell cytokine that induces the production of IgG, activation of macrophages,enhancing phagocytosis, and also increasing MHC class I and class II mo...

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS). The main cause of the MS is yet to be revealed, but the most probable theory is based on the molecular mimicry that concludes some infections in the activation of T cells against brain auto-antigens that initiate the disease cascade.Objectives: The Purpose of this research is the...
