Abstract

The present study aimed at investigating how long-chain non-coding RNA (lncRNA) tumor suppressor candidate 7 (TUSC7) regulates the malignant biological behavior of osteosarcoma cells. Tumor tissues and adjacent tissues of 30 patients with osteosarcoma were collected, and the expression levels of lncRNA TUSC7 and miR-375 were detected by RT-qPCR. lncRNA TUSC7 mimic and miR-375 mimic transfection models were established in MG63 osteosarcoma cells, and Transwell assays were used to detect the migration ability of MG63 cells. An MTT assay was used to assess the proliferation ability of MG63 cells. lncRNA TUSC7 in osteosarcoma tissue was significantly lower than that of adjacent tissues, while miR-375 levels were significantly higher than that of adjacent tissues; the two levels have a negative correlation. lncRNA TUSC7 mimic inhibited MG63 proliferation and migration abilities. miR-375 mimic promoted MG63 proliferation and migration abilities. The lncRNA TUSC7 mimic and miR-375 mimic co-transfection system could partially rescue the inhibition of lncRNA TUSC7 mimic on MG63 cells. In conclusion, lncRNA TUSC7 inhibited the proliferation and migration of MG63 osteosarcoma cells by regulating miR-375.
