Fat tissue-a vital energy storage organ-is intricately regulated by various factors, including circular RNA, which plays a significant role in modulating fat development and lipid metabolism. Therefore, this study aims to clarify the regulatory mechanism of sheep adipocyte proliferation and differentiation by investigating the involvement of circTIAM1, miR-485-3p, and its target gene PLCB1. Through previous sequencing data, circTIAM1 was identified in sheep adipocytes, with its circularization mechanism elucidated, confirming its cytoplasmic localization.

Fat deposition involves the continuous differentiation of adipocytes and lipid accumulation. Studies have shown that microRNA miR-136 and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 12 () play important roles in lipid accumulation. However, the regulatory mechanism through which miR-136 targets during ovine adipogenesis remains unclear.

Adipose tissue plays a crucial role in energy metabolism. Several studies have shown that circular RNA (circRNA) is involved in the regulation of fat development and lipid metabolism. However, little is known about their involvement in the adipogenic differentiation of ovine stromal vascular fractions (SVFs).

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate adipogenic differentiation in stromal vascular fractions (SVFs) through post-transcriptional regulation of transcription factors and other functional genes. miR-301 and the homeobox C8 (HOXC8) gene are involved in lipid homeostasis; however, their roles in the adipogenic differentiation of ovine SVFs are unknown. Here, we explored the effects of miR-301 and HOXC8 on adipogenic differentiation in ovine SVFs and the regulatory role of miR-301a in HOXC8 expression.
