LINC01140 regulates osteosarcoma proliferation and invasion by targeting the miR-139-5p/HOXA9 axis.

ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma is one of the commonest metastatic tumor in children and teenagers, and has a hopeless, prognosis. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) acts momentous roles as a regulator on the proliferation and migration of cancer. Here, we performed GEO database analysis and qPCR to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs in osteosarcoma cells. Knockdown of lncRNA LINC01140 was used to detect the effect of LINC01140 on the proliferation, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of osteosarcoma cells. Bioinformatics analysis and qPCR identified the LINC01140/miR-139-5p/Homeobox A9 (HOXA9) regulatory axis. RNA immunoprecipitation assay, Dual-luciferase assay, and rescue experiments confirmed the interaction of LINC01140/miR-139-5p/HOXA9 in osteosarcoma. LINC01140 was overexpressed in
