miRNA and cholesterol homeostasis

Copyright © 2016. Published by Elsevier B.V..

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have recently emerged as a novel class of epigenetic regulators of gene expression. They are systemically involved in the control of lipid metabolism through a complex interactive mechanism that involves gene regulatory networks. Hence, they can contribute to defective lipid metabolism and metabolic diseases. Here, we review recent advances in the roles of lipid-sensing transcription factors in regulating miRNA gene networks, as well as miRNA expression and function in the regulation of cholesterol metabolism. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: MicroRNAs and lipid/energy metabolism and related diseases edited by Carlos Fernández-Hernando and Yajaira Suárez.
