The differentially expressed miRNAs in livers of SCD, HFD and HFD + A fed mice. a Hierarchical clustering of the differentially expressed miRNAs in the livers of SCD, HFD and HFD + A fed mice. b Real-time PCR verification of miR-149-5p expression in the livers of SCD, HFD, and HFD + A fed mice. c Real-time PCR verification of miR-149-5p expression in AML-12 cells exposed to different concentrations of uric acid in AML-12 cells. Data are presented as the mean ± SD of at least three independent replicates. * P < 0.05, *** P < 0.001 of two-tailed student’s t-test
