COL12A1 Promotes Osteosarcoma Progression via the FAK/PI3K/AKT/mTOR Pathway.
Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common malignancy among adolescents and children, characterized by a high propensity for metastasis and resistance to chemotherapy.
Aims: This study aimed to investigate the role of COL12A1, a gene often overexpressed in various cancers and associated with poor prognosis, in the progression of OS and explore the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: The expression pattern and potential function of COL12A1 in OS were evaluated using bioinformatics analyses, clinical sample examination, and OS cell lines. Various assays, including transwell, CCK-8, flow cytometry, and wound healing, were performed to assess the impact of COL12A1 on OS cell growth, cell cycle progression, apoptosis, invasion, and migration. Western blot analysis was conducted to investigate markers associated with the FAK/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.
Results: COL12A1 expression was significantly elevated in OS tissues and cells. Upregulation of COL12A1 promoted cell growth, accelerated cell cycle progression, and enhanced migration and invasion while inhibiting apoptosis. Conversely, the knockdown of COL12A1 had the opposite effect. Additionally, COL12A1 overexpression increased the phosphorylation of components in the FAK/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. The FAK inhibitor Y15 mitigated the effects of COL12A1 overexpression on cell apoptosis, invasion, proliferation, and the FAK/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in OS.
Conclusion: Our findings indicated that COL12A1 enhanced OS development by activating the FAK/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, suggesting that COL12A1 could serve as a valuable biomarker for the prediction and identification of OS patients.
期刊介绍:
Current Molecular Medicine is an interdisciplinary journal focused on providing the readership with current and comprehensive reviews/ mini-reviews, original research articles, short communications/letters and drug clinical trial studies on fundamental molecular mechanisms of disease pathogenesis, the development of molecular-diagnosis and/or novel approaches to rational treatment. The reviews should be of significant interest to basic researchers and clinical investigators in molecular medicine. Periodically the journal invites guest editors to devote an issue on a basic research area that shows promise to advance our understanding of the molecular mechanism(s) of a disease or has potential for clinical applications.
