MicroRNA-196a links human body fat distribution to adipose tissue extracellular matrix compositionResearch in context

Background: Abdominal fat mass is associated with metabolic risk whilst gluteal femoral fat is paradoxically protective. MicroRNAs are known to be necessary for adipose tissue formation and function but their role in regulating human fat distribution remains largely unexplored. Methods: An initial m...
