An interesting report strengthens miR-21 association with steatosis showing that lycopene (an unsaturated carotenoid antioxidant) inhibits hepatic steatosis via miR-21-induced downregulation of its downstream target, the fatty acid-binding protein 7 (FABP7), in mice fed a high-fat diet [77]. Here, FABP7 is linked to Hepatic steatosis.
