Pleckstrin homology-like domain family A, member 3, a miR-19a-3p-regulated gene, suppresses tumor growth in osteosarcoma by downregulating the Akt pathway.

ABSTRACT: Pleckstrin homology-like domain family A, member 3 (PHLDA3), is emerging as a critical regulator for multiple cancers. Nevertheless, the expression and role of PHLDA3 in osteosarcoma remain unknown. Herein, we purposed to elucidate the role of PHLDA3 in the progression and chemoresistance of osteosarcoma. According to the bioinformatics analysis, PHLDA3 expression was low in osteosarcoma patients, and low content was linked to poor prognosis. Additionally, activation of PHLDA3 suppressed osteosarcoma cell proliferation, migration, and chemoresistance, whereas PHLDA3 inhibition caused the opposite effects. Mechanistically, our data revealed that PHLDA3 negatively regulates the Akt/GSK3β signaling cascade in osteosarcoma. Furthermore, we found that miR-19a-3p might exert its oncogenic function by inhibiting PHLDA3 expression in osteosarcoma. These results demonstrated miR-19a-3p/ PHLDA3/ Akt/GSK3β axis has a pivotal role in osteosarcoma, and PHLDA3 is a prospective therapeutic target for treating osteosarcoma.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary bone cancer characterized by an aggressive phenotype with bone destruction. The prognosis of OS patients remains unoptimistic with the current treatment strategy. Recently, osteoclasts are believed to play a crucial role in cancer bone metastasis. Thus, osteoclast could be a target both in bone destruction and cancer progression in OS. However, mechanisms governing osteoclastogenesis in OS remain poorly understood. miRNA delivered by small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) could mediate cellular communications. In this study, we investigated the effects of sEVs on osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast function, also clarified the underlying mechanism. We herein found that sEVs promoted pre-osteoclast migration, osteoclastogenesis and resorption by exposing RAW264.7 cells to sEVs derived from OS cells. Bioinformatics analysis showed that phosphatase tension homologue (PTEN), and miR-19a-3p were involved in OS progression. Overexpression of miR-19a-3p or sEVs' miR-19a-3p promoted osteoclast formation and function through PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, while inhibition of miR-19a-3p showed the contrary results. The bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) were used to verify the results. OS mice, which were established by subcutaneous injection of OS cells, exhibited increased levels of sEVs' miR-19a-3p in blood. Moreover, micro-computed tomography (CT) and histomorphometry analysis demonstrated that OS mice exhibited osteopenia with increased number of osteoclasts. In conclusion, miR-19a-3p delivery via OS cell-derived sEVs promotes osteoclast differentiation and bone destruction through PTEN/phosphatidylinositol 3 -kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway. These findings highlight sEVs packaging of miR-19a-3p as a potential target for prevention and treatment of bone destruction and cancer progression in OS patients. And this finding provides a novel potentially therapeutic target for the bone metastasis.
