Provided herein are compounds, compositions and methods for balancing a T-helper cell profile and in particular Th1, Th2, Th17 and Treg cell profiles, and related methods and compositions for treating or preventing an inflammatory condition associated with an imbalance of a T-helper cell profile.

Immunomodulating compounds and related compositions and methods

The present disclosure relates to the finding that microRNA-155 plays a role in inflammation, hematopoiesis and myeloproliferation, and that dysregulation of microRNA-155 expression is associated with particular myeloproliferative disorders. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for diagnosing an treating disorders, including inflammation and myeloproliferation, modulating the levels of expression of one or more genes selected from the group consisting of Cutl1, Arntl, Picalm, Jarid2, PU.1, Csf1r, HIF1&#x3b1;, Sla, Cepb&#x3b2;, and Bach1, and the like.

MicroRNA inhibition for the treatment of inflammation and myeloproliferative disorders

The present disclosure relates to the finding that microRNA-155 plays a role in inflammation, hematopoiesis and myeloproliferation, and that dysregulation of microRNA-155 expression is associated with particular myeloproliferative disorders. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for diagnosing an treating disorders, including inflammation and myeloproliferation, modulating the levels of expression of one or more genes selected from the group consisting of Cutl1, Arnt1, Picalm, Jarid2, PU.1, Csf1r, HIF1&#x3b1;, Sla, Cebp&#x3b2;, and Bach1, and the like.

Microrna inhibition for the treatment of inflammation and myeloproliferative disorders

The present disclosure relates to the finding that microRNA-155 plays a role in inflammation, hematopoiesis and myeloproliferation, and that dysregulation of microRNA-155 expression is associated with particular myeloproliferative disorders. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for diagnosing an treating disorders, including inflammation and myeloproliferation, modulating the levels of expression of one or more genes selected from the group consisting of Cutl1, Arntl, Picalm, Jarid2, PU.1, Csflr, HIF1&#x3b1;, Sla, Cepb&#x3b2;, and Bach1, and the like.

The present disclosure relates to regulation of functions of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by delivering of miRNAs, including miR-125b, miR-126, and miR-155, to HSCs. For example, in some embodiments, blood output in a mammal can be increased by administering miR-125b, miR-126, and/or miR-155 oligonucleotides. Also disclosed are methods for promoting hematopoietic stem cell engraftment and method for treating a myeloproliferative disorder.

Regulation of hematopoietic stem cell functions through microRNAs

The present disclosure relates to the finding that microRNA-155 plays a role in inflammation, hematopoiesis and myeloproliferation, and that dysregulation of microRNA-155 expression is associated with particular myeloproliferative disorders. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for diagnosing and treating disorders, including inflammation and myeloproliferation, modulating the levels of expression of one or more genes selected from the group consisting of Cutl1, Arnt1, Picalm, Jarid2, PU.1, Csf1r, HIF1&#x3b1;, Sla, Cepb&#x3b2;, and Bach1, and the like.

The present disclosure relates to regulation of macrophage activation by delivering of miRNAs, for example miR-125b or anti-miR-125b, to macrophages. For example, in some embodiments, macrophage activation can be elevated or reduced by administering miR-125b or anti-miR-125b oligonucleotides. Also disclosed are methods for promoting T cell activation and method for treating various disorders such as tumor and autoimmune diseases.
