Abstract excerpt
In human adipose tissue and obesity, miR-99a expression is negatively correlated with inflammation. Therefore, the present study investigated the role of miR-99a in macrophage phenotype activation and adipose tissue inflammation. M2 BMDMs showed a significant increase in miR-99a expression when compared to the M0 and M1 phenotypes. Phenotype-switching experiments established an association between upregulated...
