Abstract (original English)
microRNAs play important roles in proliferation and differentiation of stem cells, but mechanisms by which microRNAs regulate osteogenic or adipogenic differentiation of adipose stem cells (ASCs) are still poorly understood. In the present study, results showed up-regulation of microRNA-196a was able to promote the osteogenic differentiation of ACSs, but down-regulation of microRNA-196a induced adipogenic differentiation. Further investigation indicated microRNA-196a could regulate Wnt signaling pathway to affect osteogenic or adipogenic differentiation of ASCs, addition of Wnt agonist 1 was able to reverse the down-regulated osteogenic differentiation of ASCs caused by microRNA-196a deficiency and inhibition of Wnt signaling pathway with XAV939 promoted the adipogenic differentiation of ASCs. Taken together, microRNA-196a may regulate Wnt signaling pathway to promote the osteogenic differentiation and inhibit the adipogenic differentiation of ASCs.
