Purpose. Osteosarcoma (Os) is the most frequent malignant tumor of the bone in the pediatric age group, and accumulating evidences show that lncRNAs play a key role in the development of Os. Thus, we investigated the role of RBM5-AS1 and its molecular mechanism. Methods. The expression of RBM5-AS1 in Os tissues and cell lines was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (QPCR). The effect of RBM5-AS1 on the proliferation of Os cells was detected using CCK8 assays and flow cytometry. The effect of RBM5-AS1 on the migration and invasion of Os cells was detected by transwell assays. And we performed QPCR and western blotting assays to investigate the relationship between RBM5-AS1 and RBM5. Finally, western blotting assays were performed to explore the mechanism of RBM5. Results. LncRNA RBM5-AS1 was overexpressed in the Os tissues and cell lines. And lncRNA RBM5-AS1 promoted Os cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. LncRNA RBM5-AS1 targets RBM5 in Os cells. Conclusion. To sum up, the results showed that lncRNA RBM5-AS1 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in Os.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
