Abstract (original English)
Extracellular miRNAs have attracted considerable interest because of their role in intercellular communication, as well as because of their potential use as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for many diseases. It has been shown that miRNAs secreted by adipose tissue can contribute to the pathophysiology of obesity. Detailed knowledge of the expression of intracellular and extracellular microRNAs in adipocytes is thus urgently required. The system of in vitro differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into adipocytes offers a good model for such an analysis. The aim of this study was to quantify eight intracellular and extracellular miRNAs (miR-21a, miR-26b, miR-30a, miR-92a, miR-146a, miR-148a, miR-199, and miR-383a) during porcine in vitro adipogenesis using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), a highly sensitive method. It was found that only some miRNAs associated with the inflammatory process (miR-21a, miR-92a) were highly expressed in differentiated adipocytes and were also secreted by cells. All miRNAs associated with adipocyte differentiation were highly abundant in both the studied cells and in the cell culture medium. Those miRNAs showed a characteristic expression profile with upregulation during differentiation.
