Exosomal miR-425-3p inhibited preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation. HPA-v cells were incubated with 50 μg/L of exosomes or 50 nM of miR-425-3p mimics for 24 h (for cell proliferation) or 7 days (for adipogenic differentiation), respectively. Adipocyte differentiation was induced using a standard protocol. CytoD (2 μg/mL) was administrated to inhibit endocytosis. Oil red O staining and western blot were performed at day 7 of adipogenic differentiation. (a) Effect of exosomes on cell proliferation. (b) Effect of exosomes on oil red O staining. (c) Effect of exosomes on the protein levels of aP2 and ADPN. (d) Effect of exosomes with miR-425-3p inhibition on cell proliferation. (e) Effect of exosomes with miR-425-3p inhibition on oil red O staining. (f) Effect of exosomes with miR-425-3p inhibition on the protein levels of aP2 and ADPN. (g) Effect of miR-425-3p mimics on cell proliferation. (h) Effect of miR-425-3p mimics on oil red O staining. (i) Effect of miR-425-3p mimics on the protein levels of aP2 and ADPN. Data are presented as mean ± SD, n = 4; **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 vs indicated group.
