MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression, and they have
broad roles in the pathogenesis of different diseases including cancer. Limited
studies and expression profiles of miRNAs are available in human osteosarcoma
cells. By applying a miRNA microarray analysis, we observed a number of miRNAs
with abnormal expression in cancerous tissues from osteosarcoma patients. Of
particular interest in this study was miR-449c, which was significantly
downregulated in osteosarcoma cells and patients, and its expression was
negatively correlated with tumor size and tumor MSTS stages. Ectopic expression
of miR-449c significantly inhibited osteosarcoma cell proliferation and colony
formation ability, and caused cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase. Further analysis
identified that miR-449c was able to directly target the oncogene c-Myc and
negatively regulated its expression. Overexpression of c-Myc partially reversed
miR-449c-mimic-inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation. Moreover, DNA
hypermethylation was observed in two CpG islands adjacent to the genomic locus of
miR-449c in osteosarcoma cells. Conversely, treatment with the DNA methylation
inhibitor AZA caused induction of miR-449c. In conclusion, our results support a
model that DNA methylation mediates downregulation of miR-449c, diminishing
miR-449c mediated inhibition of c-Myc and thus leading to the activation of
downstream targets, eventually contributing to osteosarcoma tumorigenesis.
