AIM:To investigate the expression of microRNA155(miRNA155)in trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid(TNBS)induced colitis and the relationship between miRNA155 and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)expressions.METHODS:In TNBS colitis mice,miRNA155 and TNF mRNA expressions were measured in colons and CD4 + T cells of draining lymph nodes(LNs).CD4 + T cells were cultured in vitro with or without anti-CD3/CD28 antibody,and the expressions of miRNA155 and TNF mRNA in cells and TNF concentration in culture media were examined.RESULTS:miRNA155 and TNF mRNA expressions in colons and in cells of LNs were significantly increased in TNBS colitis compared with controls.In TNBS colitis,miRNA155 and TNF mRNA expressions in CD4 + T cells of LNs and TNF concentration in CD4 + T cells culture media increased compared with controls.When cultured with anti-CD3/CD28 antibody,miRNA155 and TNF mRNA expressions in CD4 + T cells and TNF concentration in the CD4 + T cells culture media were significantly higher than those cultured without anti-CD3/CD28 antibody.Following analysis using the Pearson’s correlation coefficient,miRNA155 expression had a significant positive correlation with either TNF mRNA expression in CD4 + T cells(r=0.860,P<0.05)or TNF concentration in CD4 + T cells culture media(r=0.892,P<0.05).CONCLUSION:miRNA155 is induced in colons and activated CD4 + T cells in TNBS colitis,and the levels of miRNA155 and TNF expressions have a significant positive correlation.

In TNBS colitis, miRNA155 and TNF mRNA expressions in CD4 + T cells of LNs and TNF concentration in CD4 + T cells culture media increased compared with controls .When cultured with anti-CD3 / CD28 antibody, miRNA155 and TNF mRNA expressions in CD4 + T cells and TNF concentration in the CD4 + T cells culture media were significantly higher than those cul tured without anti-CD3 / CD28 antibody.Following analysis using the Pearson’s correlation coefficient, miRNA155 expression had a significant positive correlation with either TNF mRNA expression in CD4 + T cells (r = 0.860, P <0.05) cells culture media (r = 0.892, P <0.05) .CONCLUSION: miRNA155 is induced in colons and activated CD4 + T cells in TNBS colitis, and the levels of miRNA155 and TNF expressions have a significant positive correlation.
