MicroRNA expression profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells associated with syphilis.

Background: Treponema pallidum (T. pallidum) infection evokes significant immune responses, resulting in tissue damage. The immune mechanism underlying T.

MicroRNA-101-3p Downregulates TLR2 Expression, Leading to Reduction in Cytokine Production by Treponema pallidum-Stimulated Macrophages.

Treponema pallidum (Tp) infection-induced immune responses can cause tissue damage. However, the underlying mechanism by which Tp infection induces immune response is unclear. Recent studies suggest a regulatory role of microRNAs in host immunity.
