Upregulating miR-488 neutralized LPS-induced releases of inflammation-related factors and expressions of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 and counteracted LPS-induced inhibition on Bcl-2 expression. MiR-488 directly targeted HMGB1 and miR-488 mimic decreased LPS-induced HMGB1 expression. Overexpressing HMGB1 counteracted miR-488 mimic-induced decreases in the expressions of TLR4 and p-p65 and the ratio of p-p65 to Total-p65 in LPS-treated PC-12 cells. MiR-488 inhibited neural inflammation and apoptosis in SCI via its binding with HMGB1-mediated restraint on the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway. MiR-488 inhibited neural inflammation and apoptosis in SCI via its binding with HMGB1-mediated restraint on the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway. Patients with chronic inflammatory disease have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This article reviews the current evidence of cardiovascular prevention in three common systemic inflammatory disorders (SIDs) psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus. General population cardiovascular risk assessment tools currently underestimate cardiovascular risk and disease-specific risk assessment tools are an area of active investigation. A disease-specific cardiovascular risk estimator has not been shown to more accurately predict risk compared with the current guidelines. Rheumatoid arthritis-specific risk estimators have been shown to better predict cardiovascular risk in some cohorts and not others. Systemic lupus erythematosus-specific scores have also been proposed and require further validation, whereas psoriasis is an open area of active investigation. The current role of universal prevention treatment with statin therapy in patients with SID remains unclear. Aggressive risk factor modification and control of disease activity are important interventions to reduce cardiovascular risk.
