Abstract
Our results reveal that miR-449a microRNA was elevated in allogeneic heart allografts. This correlated with an increased miR-449a expression in activated CD4+ T cells. Inhibition of miR-449a in activated CD4+ T cells coincided with reduced mitochondrial respiration, suggesting that miR-449a influences CD4+ T-cell activation during the alloimmune response by regulating metabolic status.
