Decreased miR-4512 expression in monocytes and macrophages contributes to a pro-inflammatory state. (A–C) Relative expression of miR-4512 (A), CXCL2 (B), and TLR4 (C) in PBMC, monocytes, and neutrophils isolated from SLE patients and control subjects, as determined by RT-qPCR. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM. ***P < 0.001; **P < 0.01; *P < 0.05; NS, not significant. (D–E) Concentrations of Th1 (including IL-1β, IL-12, TNF-α, and IFN-γ), Th2 (including IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10), and Th17 (IL-17) cytokines in the supernatants obtained from monocytes and macrophages transfected with NC/miR-4512-agomir/antagomir (D) or in the serum from SLE patients and control subjects (E), as determined by ELISA.
