  Evaluation Summary:

  The manuscript by Lee et al. provides mechanistic insight into the regulatory role of micro RNAs in modulating nuclear receptor expression and function. This is likely to have a high impact on the field as nuclear receptor regulation of metabolic disease is well established, however, the molecular mechanisms governing this process still remains unknown largely. Lee et al.'s manuscript provides a molecular target (miR-20b) that holds therapeutic potential in improving hepatic steatosis.
