TMEM182, a transmembrane protein highly expressed in muscle and adipose tissues, plays a crucial role in muscle cell differentiation, metabolism, and signaling. However, its role in fat deposition and metabolism is still unknown. In this study, we used overexpression and knockout models to examine the impact ofTMEM182on fat synthesis and metabolism. Our results showed thatTMEM182overexpression increased the expression of fat synthesis-related genes and promoted the differentiation of preadipocytes into fat cells. InTMEM182knockout mice, there was a significant decrease in abdominal fat deposition. RNA sequencing results showed thatTMEM182overexpression in preadipocytes enhanced the activity of pathways related to fat formation, ECM-receptor interaction, and cell adhesion. Furthermore, our analysis using UPLC-MS/MS showed thatTMEM182significantly altered the metabolite and lipid content and composition in chicken breast muscle. Specifically,TMEM182increased the content of amino acids and their derivatives in chicken breast muscle, promoting amino acid metabolic pathways. Lipidomics also revealed a significant increase in the content of glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids, and phospholipids in the breast muscle afterTMEM182overexpression. These findings suggest that TMEM182 plays a crucial role in regulating fat deposition and metabolism, making it a potential target for treating obesity-related diseases and animal breeding.
