ADIPOQ and obesity disorder: Consequently, the plasma adiponectin levels showed a significant inverse correlation with the expression of miR-122 (r = −0.5175) (Figure 5A), miR-34a (−0.5498) (Figure 5B), miR-375 (−0.5871) (Figure 5C), miR-16 (−0.4419) (Figure 5D) and miR-21 (r = −0.5488) (Figure 5E), as the disease advances from obesity to diabetes causing fatty infiltration, which may further progress to severe form of NASH.
