HOTAIR Promotes Cisplatin Resistance of Osteosarcoma Cells by Regulating Cell Proliferation, Invasion, and Apoptosis via miR-106a-5p/STAT3 Axis.

ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common primary malignant bone tumor among adolescences, and the emergence of multidrug resistance poses a huge challenge for clinical treatment of OS. LncRNA HOTAIR (HOX antisense intergenic RNA) has been reported to be associated with many malignancies, including OS. However, the underlying mechanisms of HOTAIR involved in drug resistance in OS are obscure. Our study showed that HOTAIR was upregulated in cisplatin (DDP)-resistant OS tissues and cells. HOTAIR knockdown decreased the DDP resistance, drug resistance-related gene expression, cell proliferation, and invasion and promoted apoptosis of Saos2/DDP, MG-63/DDP, and U2OS/DDP cells. Mechanism researches displayed that miR-106a-5p was downregulated in DDP-resistant OS tissues and cells. MiR-106a-5p directly bound
