Abstract:Background: Growing data have indicated that fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) and miRNAs are implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study was aimed to evaluate the function of miR-6089 in the regulation of RA-FLSs. Methods: The expression of miR-6089 was measured by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). The RA-FLSs were transfected with si-CCR4 plasmids or miR-6089 mimic, and subjected to CCK-8 and flow cytometry to analyze proliferation and apoptosis. The concentrations of MMP-1, … Show more
