miRNA and Protein Expression Profiles of Visceral Adipose Tissue Reveal miR-141/YWHAG and miR-520e/RAB11A as Two Potential miRNA/Protein Target Pairs Associated with Severe Obesity

Abstract excerpt

Adipose tissues show selective gene expression patterns, to whom microRNAs (miRNAs) may contribute. We evaluated in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) from obese and nonobese females, both miRNA and protein expression profiles, to identify miRNA/protein target pairs associated with obesity (metabolic pathways miRNA-deregulated during obesity). Obese and nonobese females [BMI 42.2 ± 1.6 and 23.7 ± 1.2 kg/m(2) (mean ±...
