Decreased MicroRNA-221 is Associated with High Levels of TNF-a in Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells From Obese Woman
1 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
AIM: The present study aimed to investigate the regulation and involvement of miR-221 in the differentiation of human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs). The relationships between miR-221 and pro-inflammatory markers and adipokines were also explored. METHODS: Eight adipose tissues were obtained from four obese (mean body mass index (BMI) =31.7 kg/m(2)) and four lean (mean BMI= 21.5 kg/m(2))...
