LPIN1 promotes triglycerides synthesis and is transcriptionally regulated by PPARG in buffalo mammary epithelial cells.

ABSTRACT: Studies on 3T3-L1 cells and HepG2 hepatocytes have shown that phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase1 (LPIN1) plays a key role in adipogenesis, acting as a co-activator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1a (PGC-1a) to regulate fatty acid metabolism. However, the functional role and regulatory mechanism of LPIN1 gene in milk fat synthesis of buffalo are still unknown. In this study, overexpression of buffalo LPIN1 gene transfected with recombinant fusion expression vector significantly increased the expression of AGPAT6, DGAT1, DGAT2, GPAM and BTN1A1 genes involved in triglyceride (TAG) synthesis and secretion, as well as PPARG and SREBF1 genes regulating fatty acid metabolism in the buffalo mammary epithelial cells (BMECs), while the lentivirus-mediated knockdown
