Osteosarcomas are the most common type of malignant bone tumor. These tumors are characterized by the synthesis of an osteoid matrix. Current treatments are based on surgery and combination chemotherapy. However, for metastatic or recurrent tumors, chemotherapy is generally ineffective, and osteosarcomas are sometimes unresectable. Thus, the use of microRNAs (miRNAs) may represent an attractive alternative for the development of new therapies. Using high-throughput functional screening based on impedancemetry, we previously selected five miRNAs with potential chemosensitizing or antiproliferative effects on chondrosarcoma cells. We validated the tumor-suppressive activity of miR-491-5p and miR-342-5p in three chondrosarcoma cell lines. Here, we carried out individual functional validation of these five miRNAs in three osteosarcoma cell lines used as controls to evaluate their specificity of action on another type of bone sarcoma. The cytotoxic effects of miR-491-5p and miR-342-5p were also confirmed in osteosarcoma cells. Both miRNAs induced apoptosis. They increased Bcl-2 homologous antagonist killer (Bak) protein expression and directly targeted Bcl-2 lymphoma-extra large (Bcl-xL). MiR-342-5p also decreased B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) protein expression, and miR-491-5p decreased that of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR). MiR-342-5p and miR-491-5p show tumor-suppressive activity in osteosarcomas. This study also confirms the potential of Bcl-xL as a therapeutic target in osteosarcomas.
