Abstract

Introduction: Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most aggressive malignancy among the bone tumors in the world. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to be participated in multiple cancers, including OS. Meanwhile, circPVT1 has been proved to be upregulated in OS. However, the mechanism by which circPVT1 mediates the tumorigenesis of OS remains to be further explored.

Materials and methods: Protein and gene expressions in OS cells were measured by western blot and RT-qPCR, respectively. Cell growth was assessed by flow cytometry and colony formation, respectively. In addition, cell migration was assessed by wound healing, and invasion was evaluated by Transwell assay. Meanwhile, the correlation among circPVT1, miR-26b-5p and CCNB1 was explored by RNA pull-down and dual luciferase assay. Finally, in vivo model was established to explore the role of circPVT1 in OS in vivo.

Results: CircPVT1 and CCNB1 were significantly upregulated in OS cells, while miR-26b-5p was downregulated. Knockdown of circPVT1 notably inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis of OS cells. CircPVT1 shRNA significantly suppressed the OS cell invasion and migration. Meanwhile, circPVT1 sponged miR-26b-5p and CCNB1 was found to be the direct target of miR-26b-5p. Furthermore, silencing of circPVT1 inhibited the growth and metastasis of OS in vivo.

Conclusion: Silencing of circPVT1 notably suppressed the tumorigenesis and metastasis of OS via miR-26b-5p/CCNB1 axis. Therefore, circPVT1 might be used as a target for OS treatment.
