摘要

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a malignant bone tumor that originates from interstitial tissues and affects the health of children and adolescents. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are an intriguing category of widely distributed endogenous RNAs involved in OS progression, many of which remain functionally uncharacterized. Herein, we observed an increased expression of lncRNA SPINT1-AS1 in OS tissues and cell lines. Further analysis confirmed that SPINT1-AS1 promotes the proliferation and metastasis of OS cells. Moreover, miR-135b-5p was identified as a downstream target of SPINT1-AS1. Through bioinformatics analysis, PGAM1 mRNA was validated as a target of miR-135b-5p via RIP and luciferase reporter assays. SPINT1-AS1 could enhance OS cell proliferation and metastasis by promoting aerobic glycolysis, acting as a ceRNA by binding to miR-135b-5p, thereby increasing PGAM1 expression. Taken together, these results indicate that SPINT1-AS1 functions as a tumor promoter and regulates OS cell progression through the miR-135b-5p/PGAM1 axis.
