The miR-146b-3p/TNFAIP2 axis regulates cell differentiation in acute myeloid leukaemia.

ABSTRACT: Our purpose is to verify that miR-146b-3p targets the downstream transcript TNFAIP2 in order to reveal the machinery underlying the miR-146b-3p/TNFAIP2 axis regulating acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) differentiation. Bioinformatics analyses were performed using multiple databases and R packages. The CD11b+ and CD14+ cell frequencies were detected using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining. The TNFAIP2 protein expression was evaluated using western blotting, immunocytochemistry and immunofluorescence staining. The qRT-PCR was conducted to detect the expression of TNFAIP2 and miR-146b-3p. TNFAIP2 and its correlated genes were enriched in multiple cell differentiation pathways. TNFAIP2 was upregulated upon leukaemic cell differentiation. miR-146b-3p directly targeted TNFAIP2, resultin
