Popis: | The present study aimed to investigate the potential roles and regulatory mechanism of microRNA (miR)-3941 in lipopolysaccharides (LPS)‑induced acute pneumonia. The expression of miR‑3941 in child patients with acute pneumonia was detected and A549 cells were treated with LPS to establish the cellular model of acute pneumonia. The effects of miR‑3941 in LPS‑induced cell injury were investigated by assessing cell viability, apoptosis and inflammation. In addition, the regulatory relationship between miR‑3941 and insulin‑like growth factor 2 (IGF2) was explored, as well as the association between miR‑3941 and the phosphatidylinositol‑4,5‑bisphosphate 3‑kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) pathway. miR‑3941 was significantly down‑regulated in patients with acute pneumonia (P |
