Drug Method: In this report, we used high-throughput microRNA (miRNA) expression analysis to reveal that expression of miR-140-5p was associated with chemosensitivity in osteosarcoma. The exact roles of miR-140-5p in the chemoresistance of osteosarcoma were then investigated, we found that knockdown of miR-140-5p enhanced osteosarcoma cells resistance to multiple chemotherapeutics while overexpression of miR-140-5p sensitized tumors to chemotherapy in vitro. Moreover, in vivo, knockdown of miR-140-5p also increased the osteosarcoma cells resistance to chemotherapy. Luciferase assay and Western blot analysis showed that HMGN5 was the direct target of miR-140-5p which could positively regulated autophagy. Silencing these target genes by siRNA or inhibition of autophagy sensitized osteosarcoma cells to chemotherapy. These findings suggest that a miR-140-5p/HMGN5/autophagy regulatory loop plays a critical role in chemoresistance in osteosarcoma. In conclusion, our data elucidated that miR-140-5p promoted autophagy mediated by HMGN5 and sensitized osteosarcoma cells to chemotherapy.
