Abstract
The adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are a valuable resource for regenerative medicine and essential materials for research in fat deposition. However, the isolation procedure of ASCs has not been standardized and needs to be harmonized; differences in proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of ASCs obtained from different fat depots have not been well characterized. In the present study, we compared the efficiency of ASCs isolation by enzymatic treatment and explant culture methods and the proliferation ability and adipogenic differentiation potential of ASCs isolated from subcutaneous and visceral fat depots. The explant culture method was simple and with no need for expensive enzymes while the enzymatic treatment method was complex, time consuming and costly. By the explant culture method, a larger number of ASCs were isolated from subcutaneous and visceral fat depots. By contrast, fewer ASCs were obtained by the enzymatic treatment method, especially from visceral adipose. ASCs isolated by the explant culture method performed well in cell proliferation and adipogenic differentiation, though they were slightly lower than those by the enzymatic treatment method. ASCs isolated from visceral depot demonstrated higher proliferation ability and adipogenic differentiation potential. In total, the explant culture method is simpler, more efficient, and lower cost than the enzymatic treatment method for ASCs isolation; compared with visceral adipose, subcutaneous adipose is easier to isolate ASCs; however, the visceral ASCs are superior to subcutaneous ASCs in proliferation and adipogenic differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Domesticated pigs serve as an ideal animal model for biomedical research and also provide the majority of meat for human consumption in China. Porcine intramuscular fat content associates with human health and diseases and is essential in pork quality. The molecular mechanisms controlling lipid metabolism and intramuscular fat accretion across tissues in pigs, and how these changes in response to pig breeds, remain largely unknown. RESULTS We surveyed the tissue-resident cell types of the porcine jejunum, colon, liver, and longissimus dorsi muscle between Lantang and Landrace breeds by single-cell RNA sequencing. Combining lipidomics and metagenomics approaches, we also characterized gene signatures and determined key discriminating markers of lipid digestibility, absorption, conversion, and deposition across tissues in two pig breeds. In Landrace, lean-meat swine mainly exhibited breed-specific advantages in lipid absorption and oxidation for energy supply in small and large intestinal epitheliums, nascent high-density lipoprotein synthesis for reverse cholesterol transport in enterocytes and hepatocytes, bile acid formation, and secretion for fat emulsification in hepatocytes, as well as intestinal-microbiota gene expression involved in lipid accumulation product. In Lantang, obese-meat swine showed a higher synthesis capacity of chylomicrons responsible for high serum triacylglycerol levels in small intestinal epitheliums, the predominant characteristics of lipid absorption in muscle tissue, and greater intramuscular adipcytogenesis potentials from muscular fibro-adipogenic progenitor subpopulation. CONCLUSIONS The findings enhanced our understanding of the cellular biology of lipid metabolism and opened new avenues to improve animal production and human diseases. Video Abstract.

Landscape genomics reveals adaptive divergence of indigenous sheep in different ecological environments of Xinjiang, China. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 904:166698. [PMID: 37683864 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166698] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
Sheep are important livestock animals that have evolved under various ecological pressures. Xinjiang is a region with diverse and harsh environments that have shaped many local sheep breeds with unique characteristics and environmental adaptability. However, these breeds are losing ecological flexibility due to the promotion of intensive farming practices. Here we sequenced 14 local sheep breeds from Xinjiang and analyzed their genetic structure and gene flow with other sheep breeds from neighboring regions. The Tibetan Plateau was the geographic origin of Xinjiang native sheep evolution. We performed genome-environment association analysis and identified Bio9: Mean Temperature of Driest Quarter and Bio15: Precipitation Seasonality as the key environmental factors affecting Xinjiang local sheep and the key genes involved in their survival and adaptation. We classified Xinjiang native sheep breeds into six groups based on their differential genes by pairwise selective sweep analysis and Community Network Analysis. We analyzed transcriptome expression data of 832 sheep tissues and detected tissue-specific enrichment of six group-specific genes in different biological systems. Our results revealed the genetic basis of year-round estrus, drought tolerance, hypoxia resistance, and cold tolerance traits of Xinjiang sheep breeds. Moreover, we proposed conservation strategies for Xinjiang local sheep breeds and provided theoretical guidance for breeding new sheep breeds under global extreme environments.

Abstract
As the most typical deposited fat, tail fat is an important energy reservoir for sheep adapted to harsh environments and plays an important role as a raw material in daily life. However, the regulatory mechanisms of microRNA (miRNA) and circular RNA (circRNA) in tail fat development remain unclear. In this study, we characterized the miRNA and circRNA expression profiles in the tail fat of sheep at the ages of 6, 18, and 30 months. We identified 219 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs (including 12 novel miRNAs), which exhibited a major tendency to be downregulated, and 198 DE circRNAs, which exhibited a tendency to be upregulated. Target gene prediction analysis was performed for the DE miRNAs. Functional analysis revealed that their target genes were mainly involved in cellular interactions, while the host genes of DE circRNAs were implicated in lipid and fatty acid metabolism. Subsequently, we established a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network based on the negative regulatory relationship between miRNAs and target genes. The network revealed that upregulated miRNAs play a leading role in the development of tail fat. Finally, the ceRNA relationship network with oar-miR-27a_R-1 and oar-miR-29a as the core was validated, suggesting possible involvement of these interactions in tail fat development. In summary, DE miRNAs were negatively correlated with DE circRNAs during sheep tail fat development. The multiple ceRNA regulatory network dominated by upregulated DE miRNAs may play a key role in this developmental process.

Abstract
Increased miR-222 levels are associated with metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and diabetes. Moreover, rats fed an obesogenic diet during lactation have higher miR-222 content in breast milk and the offspring display greater body fat mass and impaired insulin sensitivity in adulthood. In order to investigate the molecular mechanisms involved and to dissect the specific effects of miR-222 on adipocytes, transfection with a mimic or an inhibitor of miR-222 has been conducted on 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. 3T3-L1 cells were transfected with either a mimic or an inhibitor of miR-222 and collected after 2 days (preadipocytes) or 8 days (mature adipocytes) for transcriptomic analysis. Results showed a relevant impact on pathways associated with insulin signaling, lipid metabolism and adipogenesis. Outcomes in key genes and proteins were further analyzed with quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western Blotting, respectively, which displayed a general inhibition in important effectors of the identified routes under miR-222 mimic treatment in preadipocytes. Although to a lesser extent, this overall signature was maintained in differentiated adipocytes. Altogether, miR-222 exerts a direct effect in metabolic pathways of 3T3-L1 adipocytes that are relevant to adipocyte function, limiting adipogenesis and insulin signaling pathways, offering a mechanistic explanation for its reported association with metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common metabolic diseases and closely associated with lipid disorder. Mitochondrion has been recognized to play a key role in lipid metabolism as the main site of energy metabolism in cells, and its dysfunction is involved in the progression of NAFLD. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), one of regulators in the pathogenesis of NAFLD, are discovered to modulate mitochondrial function by targeting mitochondrial proteins or mitochondrial-related factors, thereby improving or deteriorating NAFLD-associated pathologies. This review summarizes the differentially expressed miRNAs from clinical and experimental models of NAFLD with abilities in regulating mitochondrial function, expounds their underlying molecular mechanism and discusses their prospect and future research direction.

Abstract
Adipogenesis is important in the development of fat deposition. Evidence showed that plant microRNAs (miRNAs) could be absorbed by the digestive tract and exert regulatory effects on animals' physiological processes. However, the regulation of plant miRNA on host lipogenesis remains unknown. This study explored the potential function of plant miRNA, miR167e-5p, in adipogenesis in vitro. The presentation of plant miR167e-5p improved lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells. Bioinformatics prediction and luciferase reporter assay indicated that miR167e-5p targeted β-catenin. MiR167e-5p could not only negatively affect the expression of β-catenin but also showed a positive effect on several fat synthesis-related genes, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (Pparγ), CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (Cebpα), fatty acid-binding protein 4 (Ap2), lipolysis genes, adipose triglyceride lipase (Atgl), and hormone-sensitive lipase (Hsl) messenger RNA levels. Meanwhile, lipid accumulation and the expression of the β-catenin and other five fat synthesis-related genes were recovered to their original pattern by adding the miR167e-5p inhibitor in 3T3-L1 cells. The immunoblot confirmed the same expression pattern in protein levels in β-catenin, PPAR-γ, FAS, and HSL. This research demonstrates that plant miR167e-5p can potentially affect adipogenesis through the regulation of β-catenin, suggesting that plant miRNAs could be a new class of bioactive ingredients in adipogenesis.

Abstract
Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have shown to be potential therapeutic, diagnostic and prognostic targets in disease therapy. These endogenous non-coding RNAs contribute to regulation of different cellular events that are necessary for maintaining physiological condition. Dysregulation of miRNAs is correlated with development of various pathological events such as neurological disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. miRNA-489 is a new emerging miRNA and studies are extensively investigating its role in pathological conditions. Herein, potential function of miRNA-489 as tumor-suppressor in various cancers is described. miRNA-489 is able to sensitize cancer cells into chemotherapy by disrupting molecular pathways involved in cancer growth such as PI3K/Akt, and induction of apoptosis. The PROX1 and SUZ12 as oncogenic pathways, are affected by miRNA-489 in suppressing metastasis of cancer cells. Wnt/β-catenin as an oncogenic factor ensuring growth and malignancy of tumors is inhibited via miRNA-489 function. For enhancing drug sensitivity of tumors, restoring miRNA-489 expression is a promising strategy. The lncRNAs can modulate miRNA-489 expression in tumors and studies about circRNA role in miRNA-489 modulation should be performed. The expression level of miRNA-489 is a diagnostic tool for tumor detection. Besides, down-regulation of miRNA-489 in tumors provides unfavorable prognosis.
