Fasting induces a subcutaneous-to-visceral fat switch mediated by microRNA-149-3p and suppression of PRDM16

Visceral adiposity is associated with metabolic diseases, whereas subcutaneous adiposity is comparatively benign. Here, the authors report that subcutaneous adipose tissue adopts visceral-like characteristics in response to prolonged fasting, and show this is mediated by miR-149-3p and its target, P...
