Investigation of the role of miRNAs in cardiovascular alterations induced by high fat diet.

Description

The group has investigated the miRNA expression signature in the heart of high fat fed mice by RNA sequencing. Then, they will perform gain-and loss-of-function studies to determine the contribution of these miRNAs in the cardia hypertrophy and remodeling induced by high fat diet.
