Progress of microRNAs involved in type 2 diabetes mellitus / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most serious public health problems,while the detailed mechanisms underlying its pathology remain obscure.MicroRNAs (miRNAs),which are single-stranded noncoding RNAs,are considered to be involved in various pathological processes,especially in T2DM.MiRNA has become a noval player in insulin resistance,islet dysfunction,and even in the diabetes related complications.
