Abstract

Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs), are significant in a number of biological stages and illnesses. The myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT) serves a function in numerous types of illness and physiological and pathological processes, including paranoid schizophrenia, diabetic retinopathy, myocardial infarction and neuroendocrine prostate cancer. However, the function of the lncRNA MIAT in the development of osteosarcoma is unknown. It has been identified that during the development of osteosarcoma, MIAT is upregulated in tumor tissues compared to adjacent non-tumor tissues. The spreading and proliferation of osteosarcoma cells was reduced by MIAT knockdown. These findings indicate that MIAT functions by competing with critical RNAs to target miR-150-5p and activate zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 to modulate the function of osteosarcoma cells. Together, the present findings may contribute to the understanding of the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma.
