RelA/MicroRNA-30a/NLRP3 signal axis is involved in rheumatoid arthritis via regulating NLRP3 inflammasome in macrophages
Abstract NLRP3 inflammasome plays an important role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the post-transcriptional regulation of NLRP3 expression by miRNA in synovial macrophages is still not well understood. The aim of the study is to elucidate the mechanisms of RA with the foc...

Abstract NLRP3 inflammasome plays an important role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the post-transcriptional regulation of NLRP3 expression by miRNA in synovial macrophages is still not well understood. The aim of the study is to elucidate the mechanisms of RA with the focus on miRNAs mediated post-transcriptional regulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Here, we used NLRP3-deficient mice (NLRP3KO) to cross with TNFα-transgenic mice (TNFTG) to generate NLRP3KO/TNFTG mice, and compared their joint phenotypes with those of their TNFTG and wild-type (WT) littermates at 5 months of age. In comparison to WT mice, articular bone volume and cartilage area are decreased, whereas inflammed area, eroded surface, ALP+ osteoblast number, TRAP+ osteoclast number, and the areas of RelA+F4/80+, Caspase-1+F4/80+, IL-1β+F4/80+ synoviocytes are increased in the TNFTG mice.
