Backgroud: CCR6+ CD4+ regulatory T cells (CCR6+Tregs), a distinct Tregs subset, played an important role in various immune diseases. Recent evidence showed that microRNAs (miRNAs) are vital regulators in the function of immune cells. However, the potential role of miRNAs in the function of CCR6+Tregs remains largely unknown. In this study, we detected the expression profile of miRNAs in CCR6+ Tregs. Materials and Methods: The expression profile of miRNAs as well as genes in CCR6+Tregs or CCR6-Tregs from Balb/c mice were detected by microarray. The signaling pathways were analyzed using Keggs pathway library. Results: We found that there were 58 miRNAs significantly upregulated and 62 downregulated up to 2 fold in CCR6+Tregs compared with CCR6-Tregs. Moreover, 1391 genes were observed with 3 fold change and 20 signaling pathways were enriched using Keggs pathway library. Conclusion: The present data firstly showed CCR6+Tregs expressed specific miRNAs pattern, which provide an insight into the role of miRNAs in the biological function of distinct Tregs subsets.
