MicroRNA-146a: A Key Regulator of Astrocyte-Mediated Inflammatory Response
Open accessAbstract
Increasing evidence supports the involvement of microRNAs (miRNA) in the regulation of inflammation in human neurological disorders. In the present study we investigated the role of miR-146a, a key regulator of the innate immune response, in the modulation of astrocyte-mediated inflammation. Using Taqman PCR and in situ hybridization, we studied the expression of miR-146a in epilepsy-associated glioneuronal lesions which are characterized by prominent activation of the innate immune response. In addition, cultured human astrocytes were used to study the regulation of miR-146a expression in response to proinflammatory cytokines. qPCR and western blot were used to evaluate the effects of overexpression or knockdown of miR-146a on IL-1β signaling. Downstream signaling in the IL-1β pathway, as well as the expression of IL-6 and COX-2 were evaluated by western blot and ELISA. Release several cytokines was evaluated using a human magnetic multiplex cytokine assay on a Luminex® 100™/200™ platform. Increased expression of miR-146a was observed in glioneuronal lesions by Taqman PCR. MiR-146a expression in human glial cell cultures was strongly induced by IL-1β and blocked by IL-1β receptor antagonist. Modulation of miR-146a expression by transfection of astrocytes with anti-miR146a or mimic, regulated the mRNA expression levels of downstream targets of miR-146a (IRAK-1, IRAK-2 and TRAF-6) and the expression of IRAK-1 protein. In addition, the expression of IL-6 and COX-2 upon IL-1β stimulation was suppressed by increased levels of miR-146a and increased by the reduction of miR-146a. Modulation of miR-146a expression affected also the release of several cytokines such as IL-6 and TNF-α. Our observations indicate that in response to inflammatory cues, miR-146a was induced as a negative-feedback regulator of the astrocyte-mediated inflammatory response. This supports an important role of miR-146a in human neurological disorders associated with chronic inflammation and suggests that this miR may represent a novel target for therapeutic strategies.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This study shows that miR-146a is upregulated in epilepsy-associated glioneuronal lesions and is induced in cultured human glial cells by IL-1β, where it acts as a negative-feedback regulator of astrocyte-mediated inflammatory signaling. Modulating miR-146a alters downstream TIR-pathway targets and IL-1β-induced inflammatory mediators.
Key findings
- miR-146a expression was significantly increased in ganglioglioma (GG) and focal cortical dysplasia type IIb (FCD IIb) compared with control cortex by qPCR (control cortex n=6 autopsy; FCD IIb n=6; GG n=5; *P<0.05). In situ hybridization showed miR-146a was undetectable in glial cells in control grey and white matter, but was expressed in GFAP-positive reactive astrocytes and balloon cells in FCD IIb; no detectable expression was seen in HLA-DR-positive microglial/macrophage cells.
- In U373 glioblastoma cells and human fetal astrocytes, IL-1β strongly induced miR-146a; this was blocked by IL-1 receptor antagonist. LPS induced lower miR-146a and was blocked by LPS-RS, whereas IL-6 (10 ng/ml), TNFα (1 ng/ml), and HMGB1 (40 nM) did not significantly increase miR-146a. IL-1β effects began at 0.1 ng/ml, were maximal at 1–50 ng/ml, and increased miR-146a levels were detected 16 h after exposure.
- Transfection with miR-146a mimic reduced IL-1β-stimulated IRAK-1, IRAK-2, and TRAF-6 mRNA and IRAK-1 protein; LNA-anti-miR-146a increased IRAK-1, IRAK-2, and TRAF-6 mRNA. No significant differences in IRAK-2 and TRAF-6 proteins were observed.
- miR-146a mimic reduced IL-1β-induced IL-6 and COX-2 mRNA and COX-2 protein, while LNA-anti-miR-146a increased them. IL-1β increased release of IL-6, IL-8, IFN-γ, IP-10, MIP-1β, G-CSF, Rantes, and TNF-α; anti-miR-146a significantly increased IL-6 and IP-10, whereas mimic significantly decreased IL-6, IL-8, G-CSF, IFN-γ, IP-10, MIP-1β, and TNF-α. MCP-1 release was reduced by miR-146a mimic (control: 1582±193 pg/ml; IL-1β: 27151±1368 pg/ml; IL-1β + miR-146a mimic: 11054±2027 pg/ml; p<0.05 vs IL-1β).
Methods
- Human surgical epilepsy specimens included GG and FCD IIb, with autopsy control cortex and histologically normal surgical temporal neocortex as controls. miR-146a expression was assessed by Taqman qPCR and in situ hybridization, including double labeling with GFAP or HLA-DR.
- Cultured human glial cells included the U373 glioblastoma cell line and human fetal astrocyte-enriched cultures. Cells were treated with IL-1β, LPS, IL-6, TNFα, HMGB1, IL-1Ra, or LPS-RS, and transfected with LNA-anti-miR-146a or miR-146a mimic.
- Downstream effects were measured by qPCR, western blot, ELISA for MCP-1, and a human magnetic multiplex cytokine assay on a Luminex 100/200 platform for 16 cytokines/chemokines. Statistics used two-tailed Student’s t-test or Kruskal–Wallis with Dunn’s post hoc test; P<0.05 was significant.
Limitations
- Stated: further investigation is needed to evaluate levels of different miR-146a targets in GG and FCD, and balloon cell function could be evaluated in a culture system. The paper also notes that miR-146a effects on multiple targets may vary by cell type and stimulus, that IL-1β-induced miR-146a levels were not sufficient to significantly reduce the studied targets, and that overexpression was required to exert an anti-inflammatory effect.
- Evident: human tissue sample sizes were small (control cortex n=6, FCD IIb n=6, GG n=5), and much of the mechanistic work used the U373 glioblastoma cell line and fetal astrocytes rather than adult human astrocytes in situ. Some fetal astrocyte results for IRAK-2 and TRAF-6 are described as “data not shown.”

- Rests on an assumption: The U373 glioblastoma cell line and human fetal astrocytes in culture are adequate models of human glial cells in epileptogenic lesions for studying miR-146a-mediated inflammatory responses.
The paper relies on this without support.
The regulation of miR-146a in cultured human fetal astrocytes and U373 cells by IL-1β reflects the regulation of miR-146a in astrocytes in human epilepsy-associated lesions in vivo.
“Furthermore, we investigated the regulation of miR-146a in response to inflammatory molecules in cultured human glial cells (U373 glioblastoma cell line and human astrocytes cell cultures) and further evaluated its role in regulating TLR/IL-1R-interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)-NF-κB signaling, particularly in astroglia.”
The paper relies on this without support.
There is little information regarding miR-146a function in astrocytes, particularly its effect on astroglia-mediated inflammatory pathways in relation to epilepsy.
“However, there is still little information regarding miR-146a function in astrocytes, in particular regarding the effect on astroglia mediated inflammatory pathways in relation to epilepsy.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The U373 glioblastoma cell line and human fetal astrocytes in culture are adequate models of human glial cells in epileptogenic lesions for studying miR-146a-mediated inflammatory responses.
“Since miR-146a was up-regulated in astrocytes in the epileptogenic lesions (FCD, present results; TLE [20], [21]) the expression of miR-146a was further analyzed in culture, using U373 glioblastoma cell line and human fetal astrocytes.”

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Anti-miR-146a concentration differs between methods and Figure 5
MinorThe transfection protocol specifies a final anti-miR-146a LNA concentration of 50 nM, whereas Figure 5 specifies 25 nM for the U373 experiments.
“incubation with anti-miR146a LNA or pre-miR146a at a final concentration of 50nM.”
“(A–C) Quantitative real-time PCR of IRAK-1 (A), IRAK-2 (B) and TRAF-6 (C) expression 24 hours after exposure to IL-1β in U373 glioblastoma cell line transfected with LNA-antimiR-146a (25 nM) or miR-146a mimic (pre-mir-146a, 50 nM).”
IL-1β effect on IRAK-1 protein is described inconsistently
MinorThe results say IL-1β induced downregulation of IRAK-1 protein, a studied miR-146a target. The discussion instead says IL-1β-induced miR-146a was insufficient to significantly reduce expression of the targets studied.
“Western blot analysis showed the downregulation of IRAK-1 protein induced by IL-1ß in both U373 (Fig. 5 E) and fetal astrocytes (not shown).”
“Although IL-1ß increased miR-146a levels, these levels were not sufficient to significantly reduce the expression of the miR-146a targets studied.”
Surgical specimen total conflicts with Figure 1 sample sizes
MinorThe methods state that six surgical brain specimens were examined, but Figure 1 reports six FCD and five GG surgical specimens, totaling eleven.
“A total of 6 brain tissue specimens, removed from patients undergoing surgery for intractable epilepsy, were examined.”
“control cortex (n = 6; autopsy), FCD type IIb (n = 6) and GG (n = 5) specimens.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
