LncRNA MSTRG4710 Promotes the Proliferation and Differentiation of Preadipocytes through miR-29b-3p/IGF1 Axis.

ABSTRACT: Obesity, a major global health issue, is increasingly associated with the integral role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in adipogenesis. Recently, we found that lncRNA-MSTRG4710 was highly expressed in the liver of rabbits fed a high-fat diet, but whether it is involved in lipid metabolism remains unclear. A series of experiments involving CCK-8, EDU, qPCR, and Oil Red O staining demonstrated that the overexpression of MSTRG4710 stimulated the proliferation and differentiation of preadipocytes while its knockdown inhibited these processes. Bioinformatics analysis showed that miR-29b-3p was a potential target gene of MSTRG4710, and IGF1 was a downstream target gene of miR-29b-3p. Luciferase reporter gene analysis and qPCR analysis confirmed that miR-29b-3p was a potential target gene of MSTRG4710, and miR-29b-3p directly targeted the 3'UTR of IGF1. The overexpression of miR-29b-3p was observed to regulate IGF1 protein and mRNA levels negatively. Additionally, a total of 414 known differentially expressed genes between the miR-29b-3p mimic, miR-29b-3p negative control (NC), siMSTRG4710, and siMSTRG4710-NC group were screened via transcriptome sequencing technology. The GO- and KEGG-enriched pathways were found to be related to lipid metabolism. The study also established that miR-29b-3p targets IGF1 to inhibit preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation. Notably, IGF1 knockdown significantly reduced preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation. Furthermore, co-transfection of pcDNA3.1(+)-MSTRG4710 and mimics into rabbit preadipocytes revealed that the mimics reversed the promotional effect of pcDNA3.1(+)-MSTRG4710. In conclusion, these results uncover that MSTRG4710 positively regulated cell proliferation and adipogenesis by the miR-29b-3p/IGF1 axis. Our findings might provide a new target for studying adipogenesis in rabbit preadipocytes and obesity.

Project description:BackgroundAbdominal fat deposition depends on both the proliferation of preadipocytes and their maturation into adipocytes, which is a well-orchestrated multistep process involving many regulatory molecules. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emergingly been implicated in mammalian adipogenesis. However, circRNA-mediated regulation in chicken adipogenesis remains unclear. Our previous circRNA sequencing data identified a differentially expressed novel circRNA, 8:27,886,180|27,889,657, during the adipogenic differentiation of chicken abdominal preadipocytes. This study aimed to investigate the regulatory role of circDOCK7 in the proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of chicken abdominal preadipocytes, and explore its molecular mechanisms of competing endogenous RNA underlying chicken adipogenesis.ResultsOur results showed that 8:27,886,180|27,889,657 is an exonic circRNA derived from the head-to-tail splicing of exons 19-22 of the dedicator of cytokinesis 7 (DOCK7) gene, abbreviated as circDOCK7. CircDOCK7 is mainly distributed in the cytoplasm of chicken abdominal preadipocytes and is stable because of its RNase R resistance and longer half-life. CircDOCK7 is significantly upregulated in the abdominal fat tissues of fat chickens compared to lean chickens, and its expression gradually increases during the proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of chicken abdominal preadipocytes. Functionally, the gain- and loss-of-function experiments showed that circDOCK7 promoted proliferation, G0/G1- to S-phase progression, and glucose uptake capacity of chicken abdominal preadipocytes, in parallel with adipogenic differentiation characterized by remarkably increased intracellular lipid droplet accumulation and triglyceride and acetyl coenzyme A content in differentiated chicken abdominal preadipocytes. Mechanistically, a pull-down assay and a dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed that circDOCK7 interacted with gga-miR-301b-3p, which was identified as an inhibitor of chicken abdominal adipogenesis. Moreover, the ACSL1 gene was demonstrated to be a direct target of gga-miR-301b-3p. Chicken ACSL1 protein is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria of chicken abdominal preadipocytes and acts as an adipogenesis accelerator. Rescue experiments showed that circDOCK7 could counteract the inhibitory effects of gga-miR-301b-3p on ACSL1 mRNA abundance as well as the proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of chicken abdominal preadipocytes.ConclusionsCircDOCK7 serves as a miRNA sponge that directly sequesters gga-miR-301b-3p away from the ACSL1 gene, thus augmenting adipogenesis in chickens. These findings may elucidate a new regulatory mechanism underlying abdominal fat deposition in chickens.
