MicroRNA-182-5p Attenuates Asthmatic Airway Inflammation by Targeting NOX4.

ABSTRACT: Bronchial asthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway remodeling. MicroRNA (miRNA) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of asthma. However, the mechanisms of different miRNAs in asthma are complicated, and the mechanism of miRNA-182-5p in asthma is still unclear. Here, we aim to explore the mechanism of miRNA182-5p in asthma-related airway inflammation. Ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthma model was established. MiRNA Microarray Analysis was performed to analyze the differentially expressed miRNAs in the asthma model. We found that the expression of miRNA-182-5p was significantly decreased in OVA-induced asthma. In vitro, IL-13 stimulation of BEAS-2B cells resulted in a significant up-regulation of NOX4 (nicotinamide adenine d
