MicroRNA-10a-5p regulates macrophage polarization and promotes therapeutic adipose tissue remodeling.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:This study investigated the role of microRNAs generated from adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) during adipose tissue remodeling induced by pharmacological and nutritional stimuli. METHODS:Macrophage-specific Dicer knockout (KO) mice were used to determine the roles of microRNA generated in macrophages in adipose tissue remodeling induced by the β3-adrenergic receptor agonist CL316,243 (CL). RNA-seq was performed to characterize microRNA and mRNA expression profiles in isolated macrophages and PDGFRα+ adipocyte stem cells (ASCs). The role of miR-10a-5p was further investigated in cell culture, and in adipose tissue remodeling induced by CL treatment and high fat feeding. RESULTS:Macrophage-specific deletion of Dicer elevated pro-inflammatory gene expression and prevented CL-induce
