miR-146a was activated by TRAIL administration and negatively regulated the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in macrophages. (A) q-PCR analysis of miR-146a in peritoneal macrophages from TRAIL-stimulated mice. Data are shown as mean ± SD (n = 5). (B) q-PCR analysis of miR-146a in mouse peritoneal macrophages treated with rsTRAIL. The expression of miR-146a was normalized relative to the expression of U6. (C) q-PCR analysis of miR-146a in human monocyte-derived macrophages stimulated with rsTRAIL. (D) Macrophages were transfected with miR-146a mimics and inhibitor for 48 h following rsTRAIL treatment for 3 h, and the proinflammatory cytokine expression was analyzed by q-PCR. Data are mean ± SD (n = 3) of three independent experiments. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01 compared with control. ##, p < 0.01; #, p < 0.05 compared with TRAIL-treated and control mimics/inhibitor-transfected cells.
