Aberrant expression of interleukin-23-regulated miRNAs in T cells from patients with ankylosing spondylitis

Abstract Background Interleukin (IL)-23 can facilitate the differentiation of IL-17-producing helper T cells (Th17). The IL-23/IL-17 axis is known to play a key role in the immunopathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). We hypothesized that the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) would be reg...
