The liver microRNA transcriptome of humans with type 2 diabetes and obesity is analyzed for the first time and compared with diet-induced obesity in mice.
Cardiovascular disease, the top cause of diabetic deaths, progresses via vascular endothelial dysfunction, with circHMGCS1 and miR4521 highlighted as potential markers for the development of this condition.
miR-335-3p, which targets FOS and inhibits its activation of NFATC1 signaling, is an important regulator for osteoclast function and responsible for the psychological stress-induced osteoporosis.
Coordinate control of lysosomal v-ATPase subunits and biogenesis factor TFEB by miR-1 identifies a key regulatory axis with strong links to age-related proteotoxic disease.
A multi-disciplined approach uncovered microRNA-199a/b-5p as important regulators of chondrogenesis, which negatively regulate mRNAs such as FZD6, ITGA3, and CAV1 for protective purposes during chondrogenesis.
