Bariatric Surgery Alters microRNA Content of Circulating Exosomes in Patients with Obesity

Exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) are potential biomarkers for obesity, in which they regulate biological processes. Bariatric surgery has health benefits for patients with obesity; however, the mechanisms of these benefits are not clear. This study attempted to identify the exosomal miRNA signature associated with obesity and how it changed after bariatric surgery.Healthy volunteers (HVs) and nondiabetic patients with obesity were prospectively...
