mimic miR-181a-5p or inhibitor miR-181a-5p were transfected into ATDC5 cells, and the levels of inflammatory mediators in the cells were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the results showed that miR-181a-5p could reduce the release of tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and inducible nitric oxide nitric oxide synthase in a cellular model of arthritis. This evidence concerns the gene NOS2 and Arthritis.
