MiR-181a-5p targets DDX3X to inhibit the progression of osteoarthritis via NF-ΚB signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common age-related joint disease, characterized by chronic inflammation, progressive articular cartilage destruction and subchondral osteosclerosis. More and more evidence showed that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a key role in various diseases, but the specific mechanism of miRNAs in OA is not clear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression level and role of miR-181a-5p in OA and its related mechanism. Here we identified the key gene DEAD-box RNA helicase 3X (DDX3X) in the OA dataset by bioinformatics analysis. At the same time, miRNAs targeting DDX3X were screened, and miR-181a-5p was selected as the next research object. Then we used different concentrations of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β)-induced in vitro model of arthritis, and found that IL-
