As such, effective targeted treatments for these diseases are lacking, resulting in critical unmet medical needs for these devastating diseases. The purpose of this study was to identify possible new targets for drug development by exploring the mechanism by which inflammation may play a role in the pathology of the inflammatory myopathies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We compared expression levels of inflammatory cytokines and microRNAs (miRNAs) between muscle biopsy samples from patients with inflammatory myopathies and those from donors without myositis. In vitro human and mouse model systems were then used to characterize the role of these cytokines and microRNAs on myoblast\u2010to\u2010myocyte differentiation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We observed increased expression of inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor \u03b1 (TNF\u03b1), interferon\u2010\u03b1 (IFN\u03b1), IFN\u03b2, and interleukin\u20101\u03b2, in different subtypes of inflammatory myopathies. We observed decreased expression of microRNA\u20101 (miR\u20101), miR\u2010133a, and miR\u2010133b in all of the inflammatory myopathy subtypes we evaluated, as well as decreased expression of miR\u2010206 in DM; these miRNAs are essential for adult skeletal muscle differentiation and maintenance. TNF\u03b1 was significantly inversely correlated with decreased myogenic miRNA expression in the inflammatory myopathy subtypes. In mechanistic studies, TNF\u03b1 inhibited the expression of myogenic miRNAs and suppressed the differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts to myocytes\/myotubes in an NF\u2010\u03baB\u2013dependent manner. This block in differentiation by TNF\u03b1 was relieved by overexpression of miR\u20101, miR\u2010206, or miR\u2010133a\/b.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Taken together, these results provide a new mechanistic link between the action of proinflammatory
