TBL1XR1 promotes migration and invasion in osteosarcoma cells and is negatively regulated by miR-186-5p.

ABSTRACT: TBL1XR1 has been reported to play promoting roles in various malignances, yet little is known about its role in osteosarcoma, and the up-stream molecules regulating TBL1XR1 are also unclear. In the present study, we investigated the clinical significance of TBL1XR1 and its biological role in osteosarcoma, and further explored up-stream miRNAs regulating its expression. The results showed that TBL1XR1 was significantly up-regulated in osteosarcoma cells and tissues by using western blot and immunohistochemical staining. Overexpression of TBL1XR1 was positively related to adverse clinicopathological features and poor prognosis, and which may be an independent prognostic marker for osteosarcoma patients. Functional experiments revealed that down-regulation of TBL1XR1 inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of osteosarcoma cells. Further studies indicated that TBL1XR1 was a direct target of miR-186-5p, and miR-186-5p negatively regulated TBL1XR1 expression. Moreover, TBL1XR1 was involved in miR-186-5p-repressed migration and invasion in osteosarcoma cells. Taken together, miR-186-5p/TBL1XR1 may be a novel therapeutic candidate target in osteosarcoma treatment.

Project description:BackgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as key players in promoting tumourigenesis in osteosarcoma. LncRNA OR3A4 (OR3A4) has been reported as an oncogene in a number of tumours. However, the clinical value of OR3A4 in osteosarcoma and the role of OR3A4 in osteosarcoma progression are still unknown.MethodsThe expression levels of OR3A4 in the tumour tissue of osteosarcoma patients and osteosarcoma cell lines were detected by RT-PCR. Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank test were performed to evaluate the relationship between the level of OR3A4 expression and the prognosis of osteosarcoma patients. We investigated the association between the tissue expression levels of OR3A4 and different clinicopathological characteristics of osteosarcoma patients by χ2 tests. Bioinformatic databases and luciferase reporter assays were used to predict and validate the target microRNA of OR3A4. Finally, the role of OR3A4 in the proliferation and invasion of osteosarcoma cells was tested by MTT and Transwell assays, respectively.ResultsWe observed that the expression level of OR3A4 was upregulated in the tumour tissue of osteosarcoma patients (p < 0.001) and osteosarcoma cell lines (p < 0.01) compared with the normal adjacent tissue and a normal human foetal osteoblastic cell line, respectively. The survival curve revealed that patients with high expression levels of OR3A4 had lower overall survival. Increased OR3A4 expression in osteosarcoma patients was associated with distant metastasis (p = 0.02) and advanced clinical stage (p < 0.001). In addition, bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assays verified the complementary binding between OR3A4 and miR-1227-5p. Furthermore, we found that OR3A4 acted as a miR-1227-5p "sponge" to modulate osteosarcoma cell proliferation and invasion via downregulation of miR-1227-5p.ConclusionOR3A4 promotes osteosarcoma cell proliferation and invasion by sponging miR-1227-5p, which might be related to the metastasis of osteosarcoma and could be used as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in osteosarcoma.
