Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. A schematic overview of silencing IL-23-STAT4-miR-223 signaling axis in preventing osteoclastogenesis. IL-23p19 can bind to the IL-23 receptor (IL-23R), which causes phosphorylation and translocation of STAT4 into the nucleus. P-STAT4 further conjugates with the promoter region of primary miR-223 (pri-miR-223) and the transactivated pri-miR-223 translocates into the cytosol to become mature miR-223 (miR-223) and mediates osteoclastogenesis. The signaling axis, IL-23- STAT4-miR-223 is proved to mediate osteoclastogenesis by introducing IL-23-stimulated BMMs and mouse CIA model with LVshIL-23p19, LVshSTAT4, LSF, and LVmiR-223T that target IL-23p19, STAT4, and miR-223.
