MiRNA-338-3p Inhibits Neuroinflammation in the Corpus Callosum of LCV-LPS Rats Via STAT1 Signal Pathway.

ABSTRACT: Neuroinflammation is a common characteristic of intracranial infection (ICI), which is associated with the activation of astrocytes and microglia. MiRNAs are involved in the process of neuroinflammation. This study aimed to investigate the potential mechanism by which miR-338-3p negatively modulate the occurrence of neuroinflammation. We here reported that the decreased levels of miR-338-3p were detected using qRT-PCR and the upregulated expression of TNF-α and IL-1β was measured by ELISA in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in patients with ICI. A negative association between miR-338-3p and TNF-α or IL-1β was revealed by Pearson correlation analysis. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were injected with LPS (50 μg) into left cerebral ventricule (LCV), following which the increased expression of TNF-α a
