SNHG15通过miR-335-3p/ZNF32轴抑制顺铂诱导的骨肉瘤细胞凋亡和ROS积累

Abstract

Small nucleolar RNA host gene 15 (SNHG15) is upregulated in many malignancies and mediates the development of multiple cancers, including osteosarcoma (OS). However, data on the regulatory mechanisms and role of SNHG15 in the chemoresistance of OS remain scarce. Here, we show that p53 binds to the SNHG15 promoter, leading to decreased SNHG15 expression. Decreased SNHG15 expression promotes cisplatin-induced apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in OS cells. Furthermore, SNHG15 sponges and inhibits the activity of endogenous miR-335-3p, leading to the upregulation of zinc finger protein 32 (ZNF32). Taken together, these findings reveal that p53 downregulates SNHG15 expression in OS. In addition, SNHG15 suppresses cisplatin-induced apoptosis and ROS accumulation through the miR-335-3p/ZNF32 pathway.
