Infection withSchistosomacauses aberrant expression of host microRNAs (miRNAs), and normalizing the levels of dysregulated miRNAs can attenuate pathology. Here, we show that the host miRNA,miR-96, is markedly upregulated during the progression of hepatic schistosomiasis. We demonstrate that elevation ofmiR-96induces hepatic fibrosis in infected mice by suppressing the expression of its target gene,Smad7. We show that infection withSchistosomainduces the expression of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), which in turn upregulates the expression ofmiR-96through SMAD2/3-DROSHA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation. Furthermore, inhibition ofmiR-96with recombinant adeno-associated virus 8 (rAAV8)-mediated delivery of Tough Decoy RNAs in mice attenuated hepatic fibrosis and prevented lethality following schistosome infection. Taken together, our data highlight the potential for rAAV8-mediated inhibition ofmiR-96as a therapeutic strategy to treat hepatic schistosomiasis.
