Additionally, a positive association between miR-1-3p and TNF was identified (p = 0.031, β = 2.193), with a positive trend observed for IL-17 (p = 0.059, β = 1.932) ( Fig. 6 ). 3.7 Functional enrichment analysis To identify miRNA-target interactions and the pathways affected by the validated miRNAs, we employed the MIENTURNET tool [ 30 ].
