description In the swine industry, meat quality, color, and texture are influenced by the excessive differentiation of fat cells. miRNAs have emerged as integral regulators of adipose development. This study delves into the influence of miR-10a-5b on the proliferation and differentiation of pig preadipocytes. Our findings reveal that miR-10a-5b is prevalent across various tissues. It hinders preadipocyte proliferation, amplifies the expression of adipogenic genes, promotes lipid accumulation, and, as a result, advances preadipocyte differentiation. We predict that KLF11 is the target gene of miRNA. A dual-fluorescence reporter assay was conducted to validate the binding sites of miR-10a-5b on the 3′UTR of the KLF11 mRNA. Results showed that miR-10a-5b targeted KLF11 3′UTR and reduced the fluorescence activity of the dual-fluorescent reporter vector. Our research also indicates that miR-10a-5b targets and downregulates the expression of both mRNA and the protein levels of KLF11. During the differentiation of the preadipocytes, KLF11 inhibited adipose differentiation and was able to suppress the promotion of adipose differentiation by miR-10a-5b. This underscores miR-10a-5b’s potential as a significant regulator of preadipocyte behavior by modulating KLF11 expression, offering insights into the role of functional miRNAs in fat deposition.
