MicroRNAs mediated regulation of glutathione peroxidase 7 expression and its changes during adipogenesis.

Glutathione peroxidase 7 (GPx7) acts as an intracellular stress sensor/transmitter and plays an important role in adipocyte differentiation and the prevention of obesity related pathologies. For this reason, finding the regulatory mechanisms that control GPx7 expression is of great importance. As microRNAs (miRNAs) could participate in the regulation of GPx7 expression, we studied the inhibition of GPx7 expression by four selected miRNAs with relation to obesity and adipogenesis.
