Goat intramuscular fat (IMF) content is mainly determined by the processes of intramuscular preadipocytes adipogenic differentiation and mature adipocyte lipid accumulation. However, the underlying regulators of these biological processes remain largely unknown. Here, we report that the expression of Liver X receptor alpha (LXRα) reaches a peak at early stage and then gradually decreases during goat intramuscular adipogenesis. Knockdown of LXRα mediated by two independent siRNAs significantly inhibits intramuscular adipocytes lipid accumulation and upregulates preadipocytes marker- preadipocyte factor 1 (pref1) expression. Consistently, siRNA treatments robustly decrease mRNA level of adipogenic related genes, including CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha (Cebpα), Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (Pparg), Sterol regulatory element binding protein isoform 1c (Srebp1c), Fatty acids binding protein (aP2) and Lipoprotein lipase (Lpl). Next, adenovirus overexpression of LXRα does not affect intramuscular adipocytes adipogenesis manifested by Oil Red O signal measurement and adipogenic specific genes detection. Mechanically, we found that both CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta (Cebpβ) and Kruppel like factor 8 (Klf8) are potential targets of LXRα, indicated by having putative binding sites of LXRα at the promoter of these genes and similar expression pattern during adipogenesis comparing to LXRα. Importantly, mRNA levels of Cebpβ and Klf8 are downregulated significantly in goat LXRα knockdown intramuscular adipocyte. These results demonstrate that loss function of LXRα inhibits intramuscular adipogenesis possibly through down-regulation of Cebpβ and Klf8. Our research will provide new insights into mechanical regulation of goat IMF deposition.

Adipocyte differentiation (adipogenesis) is a crucial process that determines the total number and size of mature adipocytes that will develop. In this study, the anti-adipogenic effect of sulforaphene (SFEN), a dietary isothiocyanate (ITC) derived from radish, is investigated both in 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes and in human adipose tissue-derived stem cells. The results revealed that SFEN significantly inhibit adipogenic cocktail-induced adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation at the early stage of adipogenesis. Additionally, the effects are more potent compared to those of other ITCs derived from various cruciferous vegetables. As a related molecular mechanism of action, SFEN promotes the post-translational degradation of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP) β by decreasing the stability of C/EBPβ, which is responsible for decreasing the expression of master regulatory proteins such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ and C/EBPα. Collectively, these results suggest that the intake of SFEN-enriched natural materials could be helpful as a strategy for preventing obesity.

Abstract Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous malignant disease characterized by accumulation of different types of mutations commonly the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-alpha (CEBPA). However, the dysregulations of CEBPA expression in AML is still a debatable issue. The aim of the current study was to assess CEBPA gene expression in bone marrow (BM) aspiration specimens of 91 AML patients, compared to 20 control donors of bone marrow transplantation (BMT), using RT-PCR. Data were correlated with patients’ clinico-pathological features, response to treatment, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) rates. Results There was overexpression of CEBPA gene in AML patients compared to normal control [1.7 (0.04–25.6) versus 0.17 (0–4.78), respectively, P < 0.001]. Upregulation of CEBPA expression associated significantly with increased BM hypercellularity, total leucocyte counts, peripheral blood blast cell count, and poor PFS (P < 0.001, 0.002, 0.001, and 0.013, respectively). There was no significant association between CEBPA expression and any other relevant clinico-pathological features or OS rates (P = 0.610) of the patients. ROC analysis for biological relevance of CEBPA expression with AML showed that sensitivity and specificity of CEBPA expression at a cut-off value of 0.28 are 92.3% and 78.6%, respectively (P < 0.001). All patients who had CEBPA overexpression and mutant FLT3 showed BM hypercellularity, adverse cytogenetic risk, increased TLC, and PB blast cells count (P = 0.007, P < 0.001, 0.016, and 0.002, respectively). Conclusion CEBPA overexpression could be used as a genetic biological marker for AML diagnosis, as well as a poor prognostic factor for disease progression. It has no impact on OS rates of the patients.
