Growth arrest specific 5 (GAS5) attenuates Th17 differentiation by reducing miR-23a expression. (a) Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentage of Th17 cells in CD4+ T cells transfected with pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1/GAS5, or pcDNA3.1/GAS5+miR-23a mimic. (b and c) Western blot analysis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) showed the protein expression levels of RAR-related orphan receptor γt (RORγt) and interleukin (IL)-17 in CD4+ T cells transfected with pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1/GAS5, or pcDNA3.1/GAS5+miR-23a mimic. (d) Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentage of Treg cells in CD4+ T cells transfected with pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1/GAS5, or pcDNA3.1/GAS5+miR-23a mimic. (e and f) Western blot analysis and ELISAs showed the protein expression levels of forkhead box P3 (Foxp3) and IL-10 in CD4+ T cells transfected with pcDNA3.1, pcDNA3.1/GAS5, or pcDNA3.1/GAS5+miR-23a mimic. n = 3; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
