microRNA

miRNAs regulate several metabolic process including: insulin secretion, lipid/glucose homeostasis, adipogenesis and osteoclastogenesis.
To better understand metabolic diseases, it is important to elucidate the molecular mechanisms governing these processes.

Disease Pathology

miRNA plays an integral role in many metabolic pathologies

miRNAs have been shown to be involved in a wide range of biological processes with highly tissue specific expression and distinct temporal expression patterns.

To better understand metabolic diseases such as obesity and osteoporosis, it is important to elucidate the molecular mechanisms governing processes such as adipogenesis and osteoclastogenesis.

Microarray and digital expression profiling can provide novel insights about the molecular mechanisms of deregulated miRNA expression during metabolic disease pathogenesis.
