In this picture taken with a thermographic camera after four months, the mouse treated with miR-133 ASO (on the right) is noticeably leaner. In addition, the injected hind leg (on the left in the image) is 0.8 C hotter than the control mouse. Credit: Rudnicki et al., Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, published in Cell Metabolism
This is a photomicrograph of a brown fat cell (brown adipocyte) derived from a muscle stem cell that was induced by using an agent to reduce the amount of miR-133. Credit: Alessandra Pasut, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute
