Comparative Transcriptomic Profiles of Differentiated Adipocytes Provide Insights into Adipogenesis Mechanisms of Subcutaneous and Intramuscular Fat Tissues in Pigs

Abstract excerpt

Subcutaneous fat thickness and intramuscular fat content are closely related to meat production and quality in the pig industry. Adipogenesis in adipocytes from subcutaneous and intramuscular fat tissues involves different genes and regulatory mechanisms. Analyzing the data of mRNA and miRNA transcriptomes during the differentiation of adipocytes from these two sources will help identify the different mechanisms...
