| Abstract |
Recent studies have shown that microRNA-451 (miR-451) was significantly decreased in osteosarcoma tissues and was identified as a tumor suppressor in other types of human cancers. However, its clinical significance and molecular mechanisms in osteosarcoma are still not well understood. MiR-451 levels are evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in osteosarcoma cell lines and in 68 pairs of osteosarcoma and adjacent noncancerous tissues. Then, the associations of miR-451 expression with clinicopathological features of patients were determined. The effects of miR-451 in osteosarcoma cells were examined by MTT and Matrigel invasion assay. The functional target of miR-451 were determined by bioinformatics analysis and validated by luciferase reporter analyses and Western blot assay. Our results showed that the expression of miR-451 was significantly downregulated in osteosarcoma tissues compared with corresponding noncancerous tissues (P < 0.01). Particularly, statistical analysis of primary human osteosarcoma indicated that decreased expression of miR-451 was correlated with metastasis and recurrence. Moreover, the miR-451 force-expression suppressed cell proliferation and invasion in vitro. Based on bioinformatics analysis, we found that chemokine ligand 16 (CXCL16) was identified as a direct functional target of miR-451. Consistent with the effects of miR-451, silencing CXCL16 could phenocopy the effects of miR-451 on phenotypes of osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, CXCL16 expression was upregulated in osteosarcoma tissues and inversely associated with miR-451 in human osteosarcoma tissues. Our data reveal a downregulated expression of miR-451 in osteosarcoma tissues, which is inversely associated with CXCL16 levels. These observations demonstrated that miR-451 may play an important role in tumor growth and metastasis in osteosarcoma. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 May 2023.
All research outputs
#4,512,903
of 24,294,767 outputs
Outputs from Tumor Biology
#129
of 2,635 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#48,968
of 263,495 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Tumor Biology
#7
of 146 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,294,767 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 81st percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,635 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 263,495 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 146 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
