MicroRNAs in Human Adipose Tissue Physiology: Comparison
Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Jessie Wu and Version 1 by Alina Kurylowicz.

In recent years, there has been a large amount of evidence on the role of microRNA (miRNA) in regulating adipose tissue physiology. Indeed, miRNAs control critical steps in adipocyte differentiation, proliferation and browning, as well as lipolysis, lipogenesis and adipokine secretion. Overnutrition leads to a significant change in the adipocyte miRNOME, resulting in adipose tissue dysfunction. Moreover, via secreted mediators, dysfunctional adipocytes may impair the function of other organs and tissues contributing to the development of obesity related compications.

  • gene expresion
  • adipose tissue
  • obesity
  • adipogenesis
  • adipose tissue browning
  • adipokines
