Emerging evidence indicates that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of cell differentiation by acting as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA). However, the regulatory mechanisms of lncRNA and the lncRNA-associated ceRNA network involved in adipogenic differentiation of chicken preadipocytes remain elusive. Here, we first constructed the chicken preadipocyte in vitro induction model. Then, we identified differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs), miRNAs (DEMis), and mRNAs (DEMs) between differentiated and undifferentiated preadipocytes. Furthermore, we constructed the lncRNA associated ceRNA network by gene expression correlation analysis and target prediction of DELs, DEMis, and DEMs. Finally, we determined twelve candidate lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions from the lncRNA associated ceRNA network. Eight out of the twelve interactions were validated by RT-qPCR, indicating their potential role in the regulation of chicken preadipocytes differentiation. Among the eight interactions, TCONS_00026544-gga-miR-128-1-5p-RASD1, TCONS_00055280-gga-miR-135a-5p-JAM3, TCONS_00055280-gga-miR-135a-5p-GPR133, TCONS_00055280-gga-miR-135a-5p-CLDN1, and TCONS_00055280-gga-miR-135a-5p-TMEM123 may promote adipogenic differentiation of chicken preadipocytes while TCONS_00057272-gga-miR-146a-3p-FOXO6, TCONS_00057242-gga-miR-6615-3p-FOXO6, and TCONS_00057242-gga-miR-6615-3p-ENSGALT00000043224 have the opposite effects. Our results not only provide novel insights into ceRNA roles of lncRNAs in chicken preadipocytes differentiation and but also contribute to a better understanding of chicken fat deposition.

Non-coding RNA is known to play a crucial role in the generation and deposition of intramuscular fat (IMF) in vertebrates by regulating the expression of genes involved in the synthesis, degradation and transportation of IMF. With the introduction of the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) hypothesis, circular RNA (circRNA) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) have been identified as natural "sponges" for microRNA (miRNA), yet their precise mechanisms and biological functions in chicken IMF are still not fully understood. In earlier research, we observed a significant association between Carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 1, liver isoform (CPT1A) and fatty acid metabolism in chicken breast muscle.

In the broiler industry, intensive genetic selection has been placed on muscle growth which has undesirably led to increased fat accretion. Models of chicken preadipocyte differentiation in vitro have conventionally used incubators without the ability to control oxygen (O) tension; thus, the cells are exposed to atmospheric (∼20-21%) O, which is supraphysiological compared to the O tension within adipose tissue. The objective of this study was to investigate embryonic broiler preadipocyte differentiation at different O tensions, including atmospheric (20%), physiological (5%), and hypoxic (1%).

The excessive deposition of abdominal fat tissue (AFT) in broilers has emerged as a major concern in the poultry industry. Despite some progress in recent years, the molecular mechanisms underlying AFT development remain ambiguous. The current study combined RNA-seq with transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) to map the dynamic profiling of chromatin accessibility and transcriptional reprogramming in AFT adipocyte differentiation in broilers at day 3 (D3) and D14.

Chickens are the most abundant agricultural animals globally, with controlling abdominal fat deposition being a key objective in poultry breeding. While GWAS can identify genetic variants associated with abdominal fat deposition, the precise roles and mechanisms of these variants remain largely unclear. Here, we use male chickens from two lines divergently selected for abdominal fat deposition as experimental models.

Though it is well known that insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) plays an important role in myogenesis and adipogenesis in mammals, its impact on the proliferation, differentiation, and lipid deposition in chicken primary myoblasts (CPM) and intramuscular preadipocytes remains unexplored. In the present study, we firstly examined the correlation between SNPs within the genomic sequence of the IGFBP7 gene and carcass and blood chemical traits in a F2 resource population by genetic association analysis, and found that a significant correlation between the SNP (4_49499525) located in the intron region of IGFBP7 and serum high-density lipoproteins (HDL). We then examined the expression patterns of IGFBP7 across different stages of proliferation and differentiation in CPMs and intramuscular preadipocytes via qPCR, and explored the biological functions of IGFBP7 through gain- and loss-of-function experiments and a range of techniques including qPCR, CCK-8, EdU, flow cytometry, Western blot, immunofluorescence, and Oil Red O staining to detect the proliferation, differentiation, and lipid deposition in CPMs and intramuscular preadipocytes.
