title: MicroRNA-223: a double-edged sword in rheumatoid arthritis.
abstract: Increased expression of microRNA-223 (miR-223) has been demonstrated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Two research teams focus recently on the underlying mechanisms mediated by miR-223 but two stories are developed in opposite ways.
