Abstract Psoriasis is a common, chronic, and relapsing skin disease characterized by hyperproliferation of keratinocytes and apoptosis delay. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the progression of psoriasis remain elusive. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are single-stranded, small non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in the development of psoriasis by promoting targeted mRNA degradation or translational inhibition. Here, we report that miR-214-3p, one of the down-regulated miRNAs identified in the skin of psoriatic patients and imiquimod (IMQ)-induced mouse models, can negatively regulate the expression of forkhead box M1 (FOXM1). miR-214-3p inhibition leads to hyperproliferation and increased apoptosis of keratinocytes in vitro. Moreover, we show that miR-214-3p inhibition causes an arrest of the cell cycle at the S stage by elevating the expression of NEK2, KIF20A, CENP-A, CENP-F, Cyclin B1, and by reducing the expression of Cyclin D1 in HaCaT cells. In vivo, administration of miR-214-3p attenuates the psoriasis-like phenotype in IMQ-induced mice. Collectively, our results suggest that miR-214-3p/FOXM1 axis in keratinocytes could be a novel target in the treatment of psoriasis.
