Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) has been identified to play a crucial role in osteolysis formation and stromal cell (GCTSC) proliferation in giant cell tumor (GCT). MiR-126-5p is an intronic miRNA identified as tumor suppressor in many tumors, but its role in GCT is poorly understood. We found that miR-126-5p was decreased in GCT and could directly regulate PTHrP expression. Furthermore, miR-126-5p could control osteoclast (OC) differentiation, GCTSC proliferation and osteolysis formation in GCT through negative regulation of PTHrP. Thus, these results suggest that miR-126-5p could directly target PTHrP and have a tumor suppressor function in GCT. |
