It is regulated by HIF2a and can significantly activate lipid browning‐mediated tumor cell “slimming.” Mechanistic investigations indicated that HIF2a enhanced the expression of miR‐455‐5p via binding to HIF2a‐related response elements in the miR‐455‐5p promoter, which suppresses NNT expression by binding to its 3′ untranslated region. The gene discussed is EPAS1; the disease is neoplasm.
