[Expression of miR-106b-5p in children with primary immune thrombocytopenia and its correlation with T cells].

Objectives: To study the expression level of plasma miR-106b-5p in primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and its correlation with the levels of T helper 17 cell (Th17) and regulatory T cell (Treg) and the Th17/Treg ratio.

Methods: A total of 79 children with ITP (ITP group) and 40 healthy children (control group) were selected as subjects. According to the treatment response, the 79 children with ITP were divided into three groups: complete response (=40), partial response (=18), and non-response (=21).
