Popis: Background Development of doxorubicin-resistance is the main difficulty for osteosarcoma treatment. LncRNA Taurine upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) has been identified as oncogenic lncRNA in different types of carcinomas and was involved in chemoresistance. We aim to evaluate the anti-proliferative effects and the underlying molecular mechanism of Polydatin in doxorubicin-resistant osteosarcoma. Methods Doxorubicin-resistant osteosarcoma cell lines were established. MTT, colony formation, apoptosis assay, qRT-PCR and Western blotting analysis, immunohistochemistry and animal study were carried out. Results It has been showed Polydatin (50–250 μM) inhibited the cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. Polydatin promoted the cell apoptosis significantly with the highest apoptosis rate >50%. Polydatin down-regulated TUG1 expression and TUG1/Akt signaling suppression was involved in Polydatin treated doxorubicin-resistant osteosarcoma cells. The in vivo study further confirmed the anti-cancer effect of Polydatin and related mechanisms. Conclusions Polydatin may be a novel therapeutic agent for doxorubicin-resistant osteosarcoma treatment and TUG1 would be a potential molecular target.
