MicroRNAs and lipid metabolism

Aryal, Binod, Singh, Abhishek K., Rotllan, Noemi, Price, Nathan, Fernández-Hernando, Carlos·2017·Current Opinion in Lipidology

Abstract

Purpose of review: Work over the past decade has identified the important role of microRNAs (miRNAS) in regulating lipoprotein metabolism and associated disorders including metabolic syndrome, obesity, and atherosclerosis. This review summarizes the most recent findings in the field, highlighting the contribution of miRNAs in controlling LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) metabolism. Recent findings: A number of miRNAs have emerged as important regulators of lipid metabolism, including miR-122 and miR-33. Work over the past 2 years has identified additional functions of miR-33 including the regulation of macrophage activation and mitochondrial metabolism. Moreover, it has recently been shown that miR-33 regulates vascular homeostasis and cardiac adaptation in response to pressure overload. In addition to miR-33 and miR-122, recent GWAS have identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the proximity of miRNA genes associated with abnormal levels of circulating lipids in humans. Several of these miRNAs, such as miR-148a and miR-128-1, target important proteins that regulate cellular cholesterol metabolism, including the LDL receptor (LDLR) and the ATP-binding cassette A1 (ABCA1). Summary: MicroRNAs have emerged as critical regulators of cholesterol metabolism and promising therapeutic targets for treating cardiometabolic disorders including atherosclerosis. Here, we discuss the recent findings in the field, highlighting the novel mechanisms by which miR-33 controls lipid metabolism and atherogenesis, and the identification of novel miRNAs that regulate LDL metabolism. Finally, we summarize the recent findings that identified miR-33 as an important noncoding RNA that controls cardiovascular homeostasis independent of its role in regulating lipid metabolism.

  • Several miRNAs are known to directly interact with the 3'UTR of LDLR, including miR-148a, miR-130b, miR-301b, miR-128-1, miR-185, and miR-27a/b.

    “More specifically, several miRNAs are known to directly interact with the 3’UTR of LDLR, such as miR-148a, miR-130b, miR-301b, miR-128-1, miR-185, and miR-27a/b47–49.”

    From Pathways and Molecular Mechanisms Governing LDL Receptor Regulation (2025) · cites this paper as [48]

    The Introduction sections on miR-148a and miR-128-1 explicitly say that each directly targets the LDLR 3′UTR (page unavailable). Our copy does not establish that miR-130b, miR-301b, miR-185, or miR-27a/b directly target it; the HDL-C section instead discusses miR-185 in relation to SR-BI and miR-27a/b in relation to ABCA1.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
