Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as important epigenetic modulators of multiple target genes, leading to abnormal cellular signaling involving cellular proliferation in cancers. Aberrant miRNA expression has been observed in human chondrosarcoma (CS). The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the expression and molecular mechanisms of Runx2 and miR-30a in human CS tissues and CS cell lines JJ012, SW1353, and L3252. In the present study, we found that the expression of miR-30a was markedly downregulated in CS cell lines and human CS tissues, compared to matched non-tumor-associated tissues. Furthermore, miR-30a expression was inversely proportional to that of Runx2 messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein. Upregulation of miR-30a dramatically reduced the proliferation, colony formation, and cell cycle-related proteins of CS cells. Flow cytometry analysis showed that ectopic expression of miR-30a significantly decreased the percentage of S phase cells and increased the percentage of G1/G0 phase cells. Luciferase reporter assays confirmed that miR-30a binding to the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) region of Runx2 inhibited the expression of Runx2 in cancer cells. Taken together, our results suggest that miR-30a plays an important role to inhibit the proliferation of CS cells and presents a novel mechanism for direct miRNA-mediated suppression of Runx2 in CS. Thus, miR-30a/Runx2 may have an important role in treatment of CS patients.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 June 2020.
All research outputs
#4,523,631
of 22,833,393 outputs
Outputs from Tumor Biology
#132
of 2,622 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#76,166
of 386,225 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Tumor Biology
#12
of 316 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,833,393 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 80th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,622 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 386,225 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 316 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
