However, other data suggested that the downregulation of miR‐199a‐5p inhibited the expression of BclGs (Bcl‐Gonad short form) such as caspase‐3, Bax and Bcl‐2 in the alveolar macrophages as well as the upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL‐1, TNF‐α and IL‐6 in the mouse alveolar macrophage inflammation model and sepsis‐induced ARDS model.50 Here, IL6 is linked to acute respiratory distress syndrome.
