Involvement of microRNA-146a in diabetic peripheral neuropathy through the regulation of inflammation

Recent evidence has shown the involvement of inflammation in the development of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). MicroRNA-146a (miR-146a) is closely involved in the inflammatory response. However, the role of miR-146a in the inflammatory reaction in DPN has not been clarified. This study was designed to explore the role of miR-146a in the regulation of inflammatory responses in DPN.Rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=6 per...
