MiR-146a-5p expression correlated with adipogenesis in vivo. A HE staining of epididymal adipose tissues (100×). B Cell size profiles in epididymal fat mass. C Body weights of HFD-fed and control mice. D Correlation of miR-146a-5p expression with epididymal adipose tissue weight. E Relative expression of ErbB4 in epididymal adipose tissue from HFD-fed and control mice. F Oil Red O staining of the obese and control adipose cell models (400×). G, H Intracellular TG contents and relative miR-146a-5p expression in the obese and control adipose cell models. Data in (C–E), (G), and (H) are means ± SDs. ^*P < 0.05, ^**P < 0.01
