Intravenous injection of microvesicle-delivery miR-130b alleviates high-fat diet-induced obesity in C57BL/6 mice through translational repression of PPAR-γ

Background We have shown previously that microvesicle (MV)-delivered miR-130b (miR-130b-MV) is able to target PPAR-γ and subsequently reduce the lipid accumulation in vitro. However, the in vivo effect of miR-130b on fat deposition and glucose homeostasis remains unknown.
