Abstract
Intramuscular fat deposition or marbling is essential for high quality beef. The molecular mechanism of adipogenesis in skeletal muscle remains largely unknown. In this study, we isolated Platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) positive progenitor cells from fetal bovine skeletal muscle and induced into adipocytes. Using miRNAome sequencing, we revealed that bta-miR-23a was an adipogenic miRNA mediating bovine adipogenesis in skeletal muscle. The expression of bta-miR-23a was down-regulated during differentiation of PDGFRα+ progenitor cells. Forced expression of bta-miR-23a mimics reduced lipid accumulation and inhibited the key adipogenic transcription factor peroxisome proliferative activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBPα). Whereas down-regulation of bta-miR-23a by its inhibitors increased lipid accumulation and expression of C/EBPα, PPARγ and fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4). Target prediction analysis revealed that ZNF423 was a potential target of bta-miR-23a. Dual-luciferase reporter assay revealed that bta-miR-23a directly targeted the 3'-UTR of ZNF423. Together, our data showed that bta-miR-23a orchestrates early intramuscular adipogeneic commitment as an anti-adipogenic regulator which acts by targeting ZNF423.
