Abstract:

Objective

This study aimed toinvestigate the underlying mechanisms, and the prognostic value of long non coding RNA taurine-upregulated gene 1 (lncRNA, TUG1)inthe development and progression of osteosarcoma.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, ChinaNational Knowledge Internet (CNKI) and Wanfang database were systematically searched for the relevant literature of TUG1 in the development and prognosis of osteosarcoma. STATA12 (Stata Corp, College Station, Texas) was used to estimate pooled effects and the heterogeneity among studies.

Results

Current studies indicated that TUG1 regulates the proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion by acting as a ceRNA. The underlying mechanisms include AKT and Wnt/β-catenin signal pathways. Four records with a total of 244 osteosarcoma patients were enrolled in this study. The pooled results showed that the patients with high TUG1 expression had shorter overall survival (OS) compared to the patients with low TUG1 expression (OR=1.921, 95% CI: 1.361, 2.712, P=0.000). Moreover, elevated TUG1 expression was associated with advanced tumor size (OR=4.084, 95% CI: 2.313, 7.211, P=0.000), clinical stage (OR=0.258, 95%CI: 0.098, 0.682, P=0.006), and early distant metastasis (OR=1.943, 95% CI: 1.130, 3.339, P=0.016). Nevertheless, high TUG1 expression was not related to gender (OR=1.055, 95% CI: 0.620, 1.793, P=0.844) and anatomical dislocation (OR=0.806, 95% CI: 0.424, 1.530, P=0.509).

Conclusions

LncRNA TUG1 plays an important role in the molecular mechanisms of osteosarcoma. Elevated TUG1 expression indicates poor OS and clinical parameters in patients undergoing osteosarcoma, which may be used as a moderate prognostic biomarker in human osteosarcoma.
