Up-regulation of LINC00619 promotes apoptosis and inhibits proliferation, migration and invasion while promoting apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells through inactivation of the HGF-mediated PI3K-Akt signalling pathway.

ABSTRACT: This study is performed to evaluate the role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) LINC00619 in osteosarcoma through the PI3K-Akt signalling pathway by binding to HGF. Osteosarcoma and osteochondroma tissues from patients were collected. The relationship between lncRNA LINC00619 and HGF was proved by the dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. The expression patterns of lncRNA LINC00619 as well as the levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (Akt), Bax, Bcl-2, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and osteopontin (OPN) were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis. In addition, MTT assay, flow cytometry, scratch test, and Transwell assay were performed to assess the cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution,
