Adipocyte differentiation between obese and lean conditions depends on changes in miRNA expression.

ABSTRACT: Adipogenesis is the process by which precursor cells, preadipocytes (preACs), differentiate into adipocytes (ACs). Here, we investigated differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) between the two conditions to understand the regulatory role of miRNAs in altering adipogenesis-related mRNAs. A total of 812 and 748 DEMs were obtained in lean and obese conditions, respectively. The up- and downregulated DEMs were highly concordant with each other in both lean and obese conditions; however, DEMs related to adipogenesis in obese conditions were more strongly downregulated than DEMs related to adipogenesis in lean conditions. There were more obese-specific downregulated DEMs than lean-specific downregulated DEMs; in contrast, there were more lean-specific upregulated DEMs than obese-specific upregula
