Intramuscular fat contributes to the improvement of meat quality of goats. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to regulate adipocyte differentiation and maturation. The aim of our study was to clarify whether miR-10a-5p regulates goat intramuscular preadipocyte (GIPC) differentiation and its direct downstream signaling pathway. GIPCs were isolated from longissimus dorsi, whose miR-10a-5p level was measured at different time point of differentiation induction. Adipogenic differentiation of the GIPCs was evaluated by Oil Red O and BODIPY staining, and the expression changes of adipogenic genes like ACC, ATGL, CEBPβ, PPARγ, etc. Related mechanisms were verified by qPCR, a bioinformatic analysis, a dual-luciferase reporter assay, overexpression, and siRNA transfection. Oil Red O and BODIPY staining both with adipogenic gene detection showed that miR-10a-5p suppressed the accumulation of lipid droplets in GIPCs and inhibited its differentiation. The dual-luciferase reporter assay experiment revealed that miR-10a-5p regulates GIPC differentiation by directly binding to KLF8 3’UTR to regulate its expression. Thus, the results indicated that miR-10a-5p inhibits GIPC differentiation by targeting KLF8 and supply a new target for fat deposition and meat quality improvement. |
