Upregulation of miR-210–5p impairs dead cell clearance by macrophages through the inhibition of Sp1-and HSCARG-dependent NADPH oxidase pathway

The deficiency of dead cell clearance is a prominent pathogenic factor in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In this study, the overexpression of miR-210-5p resulted in the accumulation of secondary necrotic cells (SNECs) in macrophages through the reduction of protein degradation. The upreguation of miR-210-5p inhibited NADPH oxidase (NOX) activation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and SNEC clearance. miR-210-5p overexpression...
