摘要： Lipids are intimately related to the unique flavor and nutritional values of goat milk. MicroRNAs (miRNA) participate in the regulation of various biological functions, including the synthesis and degradation of lipids. Several studies have shown that miR-103 is involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism, however, the molecular mechanism by which miR-103 regulates lipid metabolism in goat mammary gland is poorly understood. In this study, miR-103 was knocked out in goat mammary epithelial cells (GMECs) by CRISPR/Cas9, and the accumulation of lipid droplets, triglycerides, and cholesterol in the cells was suppressed subsequently. Overexpression or knockdown of miR-103-5p and miR-103-3p in GMECs revealed that it was miR-103-5p that promoted lipid accumulation but not miR-103-3p. In addition, Pantothenate Kinase 3 (PANK3), the host gene of miR-103, and Phospholipid Scramblase 4 (PLSCR4) were identified as the target genes of miR-103-5p by dual fluorescein and miRNA pulldown. Furthermore, we identified that cellular lipid levels were negatively regulated by PANK3 and PLSCR4. Lastly, in miR-103 knockout GMECs, the knockdown of PANK and PLSCR4 rescued the lipid accumulation. These findings suggest that miR-103-5p promotes lipid accumulation by targeting PLSCR4 and the host gene PANK3 in GMECs, providing new insights for the regulation of goat milk lipids via miRNAs.
