Özet

Background: Dysregulation of microRNA expression emerges as a crucial factor in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, and their importance in modulating immune responses and disease progression is evident.Methods: This study investigated the expression patterns of miRNAs in the brain tissues of C57BL/6J mice using the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model, which mimics multiple sclerosis (MS). The model was treated with Oenothera biennis oil, a potential therapeutic agent.Results: Our research has revealed a novel and significant likelihood of association between miR-182-5p, miR-200c-3p, miR-206-3p, miR-429-3p, miR-1298-5p, and diseases resembling the EAE model, such as MS. This groundbreaking discovery could have profound implications in diagnosing and treating autoimmune diseases that mimic the EAE animal model.Conclusions: These miRNAs, identified in our study, might serve as potential therapeutic targets in MS, potentially leading to more effective treatments and improved patient outcomes.
