MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to be important regulators in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). The objective of this study was to determine the expression levels of miR-483, miR-483*, their host gene (Igf2) and other cytokines in a murine model of OA. The expression of miR-483 was significantly up-regulated in old mouse and in all of the operation groups, particularly the group assessed 1 week after surgery. The expression of miR-483* was significantly increased in the old mouse group and the group assessed 5 weeks after surgery. The expression of miR-483 was negatively correlated with the expression of (mRNA) Bmp7 and TgfB and positively correlated with Mmp13 by Pearson correlation analysis, while miR-483* was positively correlated with Il1B. Surprisingly, there was no correlation between the expression of either miR-483 or miR-483* and Igf2. This study shows that the expression of miR-483 and miR-483* is up-regulated in murine OA. These data suggest that miR-483 and miR-483* may play critical roles in early and later pathogenesis of OA, respectively, without the involvement of their host gene Igf2. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.
