gga-miR-142-3p negatively regulates Mycoplasma gallisepticum (HS strain)-induced inflammatory cytokine production via the NF-κB and MAPK signaling by targeting TAB2.

Upon MG infection, upregulation of gga-miR-142-3p alleviates inflammation by negatively regulating the signaling pathways of NF-κB and MAPKs by targeting TAB2 and facilitates cell proliferation by inhibiting cell apoptosis and promoting cell cycle progression to defend against MG infection.
