ZBED6 was identified as a transcription factor that affects muscle mass and fat deposition in pigs. Mechanisms mediating effects on fat mass are unclear. The objective was to determine the effect of ZBED6 mRNA knockdown on 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation and gene expression. Differentiation was associated with increased mRNA abundance of CEBP/α (P < 0.05), CEBP/β (P < 0.05), CEBP/δ (P < 0.05), FASN (P < 0.05), PPARγ (P < 0.05), and SREBP-1 (P < 0.05), and decreased abundance of PREF-1 (P < 0 ...[more]
