Abstract:Obesity and diabetes are some of the most prevalent non-communicable disease conditions that claimed a heavy toll on life in recent years. Understanding the complex molecular mechanism of onset and progress of obesity is important for developing appropriate therapeutics. Several studies on mouse and rat models established the essential and regulating roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the pathophysiology of obesity and diabetes. Using an indigenous obese rat model (WNIN-Ob), we aimed to identify differentially exp… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
