Significant role of some miRNAs as biomarkers for the degree of obesity
Background Obesity is one of the most serious problems over the world. MicroRNAs have developed as main mediators of metabolic processes, playing significant roles in physiological processes. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the expressions of (miR-15a, miR-Let7, miR-344, and miR-365) and i...

Zusammenfassung: | Background
Obesity is one of the most serious problems over the world. MicroRNAs have developed as main mediators of metabolic processes, playing significant roles in physiological processes. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the expressions of (miR-15a, miR-Let7, miR-344, and miR-365) and its relationship with the different classes in obese patients.
Methods
A total of 125 individuals were enrolled in the study and classified into four groups: healthy non-obese controls (
n
= 50), obese class I (
n
= 24), obese class II (
n
= 17), and obese class III (
n
= 34) concerning body mass index (BMI |
