Abstract
OBJECTIVES: This study analyzed the effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on biological behavior of osteosarcoma cells through expression of miR-1307. METHODS: We performed routine culture of human osteosarcoma cells MG-63 and randomly divided into control group, low-dose DEX group (25 ng/ml), medium-dose DEX group (50 ng/ml) and high-dose DEX group (100 ng/ml). Subsequently, we detected the cell proliferation (by CCK8 method), cell apoptosis (flow cytometry), mir-1307 expression (qRT-PCR), cell invasion (Transwell), and cell migration (scratch test) respectively. RESULTS: The growth rate of osteosarcoma cells MG-63 slowed down with the increase of DEX concentration. Compared with the control group, the cellular absorbance in groups with different DEX dose decreased remarkably after 72 hours of culture (P<0.05). The proportion of apoptotic cells increased as well with the uplifting of DEX concentration, and the apoptotic rate in medium and high dosed DEX groups were remarkably higher than which in control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the invasive ability of MG-63 cells after DEX treatment decreased significantly, and with the increase of DEX concentration, the number of invasive cells declined more obviously (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the mobility rate of MG-63 cells after DEX treatment decreased significantly, and with the increase of DEX concentration, the cell mobility rate decreased more remarkably (P<0.05). In addition, the relative expression of miR-1307 in MG-63 cells after DEX treatment decreased significantly comparing to the control group, and the decline was more noteworthy with the increase of DEX concentration (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:DEX can effectively inhibit the proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells in a dose-dependent manner, and its efficacy may be related to its regulation of miR-1307 expression.
