    abstract = {The effects of &#946;-carotene on differentiation of Bovine Intramuscular Preadipocytes (BIP) and Subcutaneous Preadipocytes (BSP) via <I>BCO2</I> and related genes were studied. After treatment of cells with 0, 10, 20, 30, 50 and 80 &#956;M &#946;-carotene, cellular lipid content was assessed by Oil Red O staining and a Triglyceride (TG) assay. The relative expression of &#946;-Carotene-15, 15'-Momoxygenase 1 (BCMO1), &#946;-Carotene-9', 10'-momoxygenase2 (BCO2), Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-&#947; (PPAR&#947;) and Retinoic acid X Receptor &#945; (RXR&#945;) were also investigated. Results showed that &#946;-carotene can suppress adipocytes differentiation as a whole. And different concentration &#946;-carotene addition to BSP had not obvious variation of BCO2, PPAR&#947; and RXR&#945; while BIP of same treatment had a highest expression of 30 &#956;M &#946;-carotene at 5 h which can be showed through the results of both Oil Red O staining of cells and fluorescence RT-qPCR. Besides, researchers found that BCMO1 did not nearly express in adipocytes of bovine but BCO2 had a good expression. The present study provides further evidence of the effects of &#946;-carotene on lipid metabolism and suggests that BCO2 may play an important role in the development of bovine adipose tissue <I>in vivo</I>.}
