miR-32-5p induces hepatic steatosis and hyperlipidemia by triggering de novo lipogenesis

MicroRNA-dependent regulation of hepatic lipid metabolism has been recognized recently as a key pathological mechanism contributing to the development of NAFLD. However, whether miR-32-5p (miR-32) plays a role in lipid metabolism or contributes to NAFLD remains unclear.
