We hypothesized that oleic acid (Ole) might stimulate the formation of satellite-cell-derived intramuscular adipose tissue. The role of Ole as a ligand of <em>G-protein-coupled receptor 43</em> (<em>GPR4</em>3) was previously identified. Thus, the objective of the current study was to determine the effect of Ole on <em>GPR43</em> and factors related to the adipogenic differentiation of bovine satellite cells (BSC). Treatments of 100 μM and 500 μM Ole tended to induce greater (P < 0.10) mRNA expression of <em>CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β</em> (<em>C/EBPβ</em>) compared to all other doses. The mRNA abundance of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (<em>PPARγ</em>) was not altered (<em>P</em> > 0.10) by treatment. The addition of 100 μM and 500 μM of Ole upregulated (<em>P</em> < 0.05) <em>GPR43</em> mRNA expression. Protein level of GPR43 was increased (<em>P</em> < 0.05) by 100 μM of Ole treatments. Addition of Ole to BSC cultures induced transformation of myogenic cells into adipocyte-like cells that formed cytoplasmic lipid droplets. Increased expression of<em> C/EBPβ</em> in response to Ole might suppress myogenic differentiation. After the treatment of cells with Ole, increased expression of GPR43 could lead to phosphorylation of 5’ AMP-activated protein kinase α (AMPKα). Altogether, the results indicated that increased Ole might stimulate adipose tissue accumulation within the skeletal muscle of cattle by promoting adipogenic differentiation and activation of GPR43 in satellite cells.展开更多
