“…Results: Our results demonstrated elevated miR-29a expression (CFA 3 days: mean difference [95% confidence interval, CI]: 0.860 [0.657–1.062]; CFA 5 days: mean difference [95% CI]: 1.120 [0.917–1.322], P<0.001, n=6) and decreased IFNR1 expression (CFA 3 days: mean difference [95% CI]: −0.300 [−0.470 to −0.130]; CFA 5 days: mean difference [95% CI]: −0.330 [−0.515 to −0.145], P=0.004, n=6) from Days 3–5 post-CFA induction, with IFN-ß expression showing a significant increase from Day 2 (F [3.30, 16.5]=34.3 for factor time, P≤0.01, n=6). Treatment with an miR-29a inhibitor alleviated CFA-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia by Day 5 (P<0.001, n=9), concomitant with upregulation of IFNR1 and ISG15 expression, and downregulation of p-ERK (IFNR1; CFA 5 days + miR-29a inhibitor vs CFA 5 days; mean difference [95% CI]: 30.00 [20.31–39.69]; ISG15 conjugates; CFA 5 days + miR-29a inhibitor vs CFA 5 days, mean difference [95% CI]: 1.000 [0.9144–1.086]; free ISG15, mean difference [95% CI]: 2.402 [2.171–2.633]; p-ERK; CFA 5 days + miR-29a inhibitor vs CFA 5 days, mean difference [95% CI]: −32.00 [−34.10 to −29.90], P<0.001, n=9). …”
