DOI: 10.1002/iub.1926
Abstract: Specific microRNAs (miRs), including the “angio‐miR‐126” and the “inflamma‐miR‐146a‐5p,” have been proposed as biomarkers and even therapeutic targets of obesity‐associated metabolic diseases. Physical activity, a key measure of prevention for obesity and its complications, is… read more here.
