EBF1-mediated up-regulation of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 facilitates osteosarcoma progression by regulating miR-124-3p/G3BP2 axis as a ceRNA.

ABSTRACT:

Background

As a skeletal malignancy, osteosarcoma has high incidence among primary malignant bone tumors. With increasing researches on molecules which mediate cancer progression, molecular mechanism has gradually become the pivot of osteosarcoma research and treatment.

Aim

Our study aimed at investigating the function of G3BP stress granule assembly factor 2 (G3BP2), which is an oncogene for breast cancer (BC) and prostate cancer but remains unknown in osteosarcoma cells.

Methods

Related gene expression was confirmed by RT-qPCR. Functional assays including immunofluorescence (IF), colony formation, transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) as well as transwell assays were utilized to test the cell biological process caused by the genes. Meanwhile, RNA pull-
