OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the role of TSIX/miR-30a-5p axis in particle-induced osteolysis (PIO). METHOD: PIO mouse model was established by the implantation of Co-Cr-Mo metal particles (CoPs). MC3T3-E1 cells received CoPs stimulation. Bone mineral density (BMD) in the skull was detected to evaluate PIO development. The expression of TSIX and miR-30a-5p was detected by using qRT-PCR. Osteoblast apoptosis was measured using flow cytometry. RNA pull-down was used to verify the regulatory relationship between TSIX and miR-30a-5p. RESULT: The results showed that BMD of the skull in PIO mice was significantly decreased compared with control mice, which indicated that the PIO model was established successfully. Moreover, CoPs could up-regulate TSIX level, down-regulate miR-30a-5p expression, and promote osteoblast apoptosis in vivo and in vitro. The results also found that TSIX negatively regulated miR-30a-5p expression, and knockdown of TSIX inhibited Runx2 expression. As expected, miR-30a-5p inhibitor could reverse the inhibition of si-TSIX on osteoblast apoptosis. CONCLUSION: TSIX played a pivotal role in PIO development by negatively regulating miR-30a-5p.
