MiR-542-5p is a negative prognostic factor and promotes osteosarcoma tumorigenesis by targeting HUWE1.

ABSTRACT: Recent evidence has demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the proliferation and metastasis of osteosarcoma. Using miRNA microarray and functional screening methods to compare miRNA expression profiles in osteosarcoma cell lines treated with Trichostatin A (TSA), overexpression of miR-542-5p was determined to be involved in the proliferation of osteosarcoma. We used isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) and nanoscale liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (NanoLC-MS/MS) to identify differentially expressed proteins in MNNG/HOS and U2OS osteosarcoma cell lines transfected with miR-542-5p; in both cell lines, seven proteins were downregulated, and nine were upregulated. HUWE1 was found to be a direct target of miR-542-5p in both osteosarcoma cell lines,
