miR-23a/b-3p enhances the stability of Srebp-1c and Fas mRNA by binding to their 5'-UTR, promoting triglyceride accumulation in hepatocytes.
miR-23a-3p and miR-23b-3p are members of the miR-23 similar to 27 similar to 24 similar to 2 superfamily. The role of miR-23a/b-3p in regulating hepatic lipid accumulation is still unknown. Here, we found that increased miR-23a-3p and miR-23b-3p levels were accompanied by an increase in the protein levels of the sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1 (SREBP-1) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) in the steatotic livers of mice fed a high-fat diet and leptin receptor-deficient type 2 diabetic mice (db/db). Importantly, overexpression of miR-23a/b-3p in Hep1-6 cells elevated the intracellular triglyceride level and upregulated the expression of Srebp-1c and Fas. Taken together, these results suggested that miR-23a/b-3p enhanced mRNA stability by binding the 5'-UTR of Srebp-1c and Fas mRNA, thereby promoting triglyceride accumulation in hepatocytes.
