MicroRNA-378 Regulates Adiponectin Expression in Adipose Tissue: A New Plausible Mechanism
7 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Mechanisms regulating adiponectin expression have not been fully clarified. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression, are involved in biological processes, including obesity and insulin resistance. We evaluated whether the miRNA-378 pathway is involved in regulating adiponectin expression. METHODS AND RESULTS: First, we determined a putative target site for miRNA-378 in the 3...
