MiR-4295 promotes cell proliferation, migration and invasion of osteosarcoma through targeting interferon regulatory factor 1


ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common form of primary malignant bone tumor. Despite encouraging progress in the treatment of OS, the survival rate for patients with OS has remained unchanged over the past 40 years. It has been established that miRNA plays a crucial regulatory role in the progression and development of OS. To explore the potential association of miRNAs with OS, bioinformatics techniques were used to screen for differentially expressed miRNA genes in OS in the Gene Expression Omnibus database. In the GSE70367 database, it was revealed that miR-4295 expression was abnormally elevated in the expression of OS cells. To characterize the potential function of miR-4295 in OS, the expression levels of miR-4295 in 30 samples of OS and adjacent normal tissues was examined. The results revealed that the expression of miR-4295 was significantly increased in OS tissues compared with the paired normal tissues. Moreover, the expression levels of miR-4295 in OS cell lines (MG-63 and Saos-2) were significantly higher compared with those in the normal human mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, miR-4295 was associated with OS cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the expression of interferon regulatory factor (IRF)1, a tumor suppressor, was regulated by miR-4295 directly in OS cells. Taken together, the present results revealed that miR-4295 may act as a tumor activator by targeting IRF1 during the progression of OS. Investigating miR-4295 may provide novel insight into the mechanisms of OS metastasis, and inhibition and targeting miR-4295 may be a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of OS.
