Abstract

Adipose-derived stem cell (ASC)-released exosomes (ASCexos) have multiple biological activities. We examined the effect of ASCexos derived from the inguinal adipose tissue of exercise-trained rats (EX-ASCexos) on adipogenic conversion of 3T3-L1 cells and analyzed their microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles. Differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells into adipocytes was performed for 9 d with EX-ASCexos or ASCexos from sedentary control rats (SED-ASCexos), and the expression of proteins and miRNA involved in adipogenic differentiation were determined. EX-ASCexos but not SED-ASCexos attenuated 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation with increased phosph-Ser112PPARγ expression, the inactive form of PPARγ. These differentiated adipocytes were also accompanied by increased phosph-Thr202/Tyr204ERK and decreased dual-specificity phosphatase 3 (DUSP3) levels. The exosomal miRNAs miR-323–5p, miR-433–3p, and miR-874–3p were identified specifically in EX-ASCexos. Of these, miR-323–5p mimic replicated the EX-ASCexo-induced suppression of 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation and altered adipogenesis-related factor expression. In conclusion, exercise training-driven exosomal miR-323–5p suppressed 3T3-L1 adipogenesis by increasing phosph-Ser112PPARγ expression, while phosph-Thr202/Tyr204ERK accumulation inhibited DUSP3 expression.
