Abstract:

Objective To investigate the expression of ribosome-binding protein 1(RRBP1) in osteosarcoma tissues and the effect on the cell biological characteristics of osteosarcoma U-2OS cells. Methods A total of 91 patients with osteosarcoma undergoing surgical treatment in Nanyang Second People's Hospital and the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2014 to June 2020 were enrolled,and their osteosarcoma tissues were collected. Totally,45 patients who underwent orthopedic surgery and excluded bone tumors were enrolled,and the normal bone tissues were collected. The expressions of RRBP1 proteins in osteosarcoma tissues and normal bone tissues were determined by immunohistochemical method. The patients with osteosarcoma were followed up after surgical treatment,with a follow-up until December 2021,and the survival was recorded. The osteosarcoma cell line U-2OS was cultured and classified into si-RRBP1 group(transfected with RRBP1 interference sequence),si-NC group(transfected with negative control sequence) and blank group(only added with transfection reagent). Normal cultured U-2OS cells were used as control group. The expressions of RRBP1 mRNA and protein in each group were determined,and the proliferative activity,migration and invasion ability of cells were determined. Results The positive expression rate of RRBP1 protein in osteosarcoma tissues was higher than that in normal bone tissues(P<0.001). The positive rates of RRBP1 protein in osteosarcoma patients with Enneking stage ⅡB to Ⅲ and distant metastasis were higher than those in patients with Enneking stage ⅡA and without distant metastasis(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the positive rates of RRBP1 protein among osteosarcoma patients with different sex,ages,tumor locations,histological types and tumor sizes(P>0.05). The survival rate and time of patients in RRBP1 positive group were lower than those in RRBP1 negative group(P=0.003). The relative expressions of RRBP1 mRNA and protein in si-RRBP1 group is cell were lower than those in si-NC groups,blank groups and U-2OS (P<0.05). Compared with si-NC group and blank group,the absorbance(A) values in si-RRBP1 group at 24,48,72 and 96 h were decreased(P<0.05). The number of migrating cells and invasive cells in si-RRBP1 group were lower than those in si-NC group and blank group(P<0.05). Conclusions The expression of RRBP1 protein in osteosarcoma tissues is highly expressed,and it is related to patient prognosis. Down-regulated RRBP1 gene expression in osteosarcoma U-2OS cells can inhibit cell proliferative activity and inhibit cell migration and invasion.
