CNP and colitis: Oral delivery of CNP-miR146a in mice with colitis was associated with reduced inflammation and oxidative stress in the proximal and distal colons as evidenced by histopathology scoring, reduced immune cell infiltration, reduced IL-6 and TNF expression, and decreased populations of CD4+Tbet+IFNg+ Th1, CD4+RorgT+IL17+ Th17, as well as pathogenic double positive IFNg+IL17+ T cells.
