Poverty, race, ethnicity, and survival in pediatric nonmetastatic osteosarcoma: a Children's Oncology Group report. J Natl Cancer Inst 2024:djae103. [PMID: 38926133 DOI: 10.1093/jnci/djae103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Children living in poverty and those of marginalized race or ethnicity experience inferior disease outcomes across many cancers. Whether survival disparities exist in osteosarcoma is poorly defined. We investigated the association between race, ethnicity, and proxied poverty exposures and event-free and overall survival for children with nonmetastatic osteosarcoma receiving care on a cooperative group trial. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of US patients with nonmetastatic, osteosarcoma aged 5-21 years enrolled on the Children's Oncology Group trial AOST0331. Race and ethnicity were categorized to reflect historically marginalized populations, as Hispanic, non-Hispanic Black, non-Hispanic Other, and non-Hispanic White. Poverty was proxied at the household and neighborhood levels. Overall survival and event-free survival functions of time from trial enrollment were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Hypotheses of associations between risks for event-free survival, death, and postrelapse death with race and ethnicity were assessed using log-rank tests. RESULTS Among 758 patients, 25.6% were household-poverty and 28.5% neighborhood-poverty exposed. Of the patients, 21% of children identified as Hispanic, 15.4% non-Hispanic Black, 5.3% non-Hispanic Other, and 54.0% non-Hispanic White. Neither household or neighborhood poverty nor race and ethnicity were statistically significantly associated with risks for event-free survival or death. Postrelapse risk for death differed statistically significantly across race and ethnicity with non-Hispanic Black patients at greatest risk (4-year postrelapse survival 35.7% Hispanic vs 13.0% non-Hispanic Black vs 43.8% non-Hispanic Other vs 38.9% non-Hispanic White; P = .0046). CONCLUSIONS Neither proxied poverty exposures or race and ethnicity were associated with event-free survival or overall survival, suggesting equitable outcomes following frontline osteosarcoma trial-delivered therapy. Non-Hispanic Black children experienced statistically significant inferior postrelapse survival. Investigation of mechanisms underlying postrelapse disparities are paramount.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate patient and tumour characteristics, treatment and their impact on survival in patients with a solitary pulmonary metastasis at first relapse of high-grade osteosarcoma. PROCEDURE Two-hundred and nineteen consecutive patients who had achieved a complete surgical remission and then developed a solitary pulmonary metastasis at first recurrence of high-grade osteosarcoma were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Two hundred and three (94.9%) of 214 patients achieved a second complete remission. After a median time from initial diagnosis of osteosarcoma to first relapse of 2.3 years (range, 0.3-18.8 years), actuarial post-relapse overall survival after 2 and 5 years was 72.0% and 51.2%. Post-relapse event-free survival was 39.1% and 31.1%. Median follow-up time was 3.2 years (range, 0.1-29.4 years). A longer time until first relapse and diagnosis due to imaging were positive prognostic factors in uni- and multivariate analyses, as were a second complete surgical remission and, in regard to death, the absence of a subsequent relapse. The use of salvage chemotherapy and radiotherapy were not associated with patient outcomes, nor was the surgical approach (thoracoscopy vs. thoracotomy) nor the exploration (uni- vs. bilateral). CONCLUSION Approximately half of the patients who experience a solitary pulmonary relapse at first recurrence of osteosarcoma remain alive 5 years after this first relapse. Only one third will remain disease-free. A complete surgical resection of the lesion is essential for long-term survival while relapse chemotherapy does not seem to improve survival. Innovative therapies are required to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Treatments of osteolytic lesions due to malignant metastasis remain one of the major clinical challenges. The residual tumor cells after surgical resections and an acidic tumor microenvironment are unfavorable for osteogenic induction. Bortezomib (BTZ), a proteasome inhibitor used in chemotherapy, also has an osteogenic potential in concentration- and Ca2+-dependent manners. In this study, controlled delivery of BTZ in a novel bifunctional scaffold based on nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) and sodium alginate (SA) nanocomposite, namely BTZ/nHA@SA, has been explored. By smartly adjusting microenvironments, a sustainable release of Ca2+ from nHA could be achieved, which was not only able to cross-link SA but also to regulate the switch between the dual functions of tumor inhibition and bone regeneration of BTZ to promote the osteogenic pathway. The freeze-dried BTZ/nHA@SA scaffold has excellent interconnectivity, is capable to promote the attachment and proliferation of mouse embryonic osteoblast precursor cells, as well as effectively induces breast cancer cell death in vitro. Furthermore, in vivo, studies using a mouse tumor model and a rabbit femoral defect model showed that the BTZ/nHA@SA scaffold could promote tumor ablation, and also enhance bone repair. Therefore, the BTZ/nHA@SA scaffold has unique dual functions of inhibiting tumor recurrence and promoting bone tissue regeneration simultaneously. This smart bi-functional scaffold offers a promising novel approach for oncological treatments by synchronously orchestrating tumor inhibition and tissue regeneration for the repair of neoplastic bone defects.

Acute generation of reactive oxygen species that induced by doxycycline pretreatment results in rapid cell death in polyphyllin G-treated osteosarcoma cell lines. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY 2023; 38:1174-1184. [PMID: 36773305 DOI: 10.1002/tox.23757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2022] [Revised: 01/21/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Polyphyllin G, a pennogenyl saponin extracted from Paris polyphylla, has been shown to possess antitumor effects. In this study, we demonstrated that doxycycline, an antibiotic medicine, could significantly enhance the sensitivities of osteosarcoma cell lines to polyphyllin G. As the cells were pretreated with doxycycline at non-toxic concentrations and then co-exposed to polyphyllin G, this combination could induce a rapid cell death distinct from apoptosis. The non-apoptotic cell death was characterized by a loss of integrity of plasma membrane without externalization of phosphatidyl serine. Furthermore, this combined treatment resulted in suppression of cell viability and colony-forming ability, and increased the level of γ-H2A.X, a critical marker for DNA damage, in osteosarcoma cell lines. When examining the underlying mechanism, it was revealed combination of polyphyllin G and doxycycline triggered an enhanced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and up-regulated mitochondrial oxidative stress within 0.5 h. Co-administration of the ROS inhibitor NAC reversed the suppressed cell viability and colony-forming ability, and abolished the increased level of γ-H2A.X in the cells with the combined treatment, indicating that the enhanced ROS was involved in the anti-proliferative effect of the combined treatment. Overall, the results demonstrated that doxycycline may function as chemosensitizers by inducing an acute and lethal ROS production to enhance cytotoxic of polyphyllin G in osteosarcoma cell lines, and the combined use of drugs may provide an alternative thinking for the development of new therapeutic agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with relapsed osteosarcoma have poor treatment outcomes. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (HDCT/ASCT) has been used in several high-risk malignant solid tumors; however, few studies have evaluated their role in treating osteosarcoma. We evaluated the effectiveness of HDCT/ASCT in relapsed pediatric osteosarcoma cases. PROCEDURE We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 40 patients diagnosed with and treated for relapsed osteosarcoma at Asan Medical Center and Samsung Medical Center from January 1996 to July 2019. RESULTS The median age of this cohort was 13.4 years (range: 6.1-18.2). The cohort's 5-year overall survival (OS) was 51.0% ± 0.1% during a median follow-up period of 67.5 months. Twenty-five patients (62.5%) achieved complete remission (CR) with salvage treatment, and the 5-year OS was 82.4% ± 0.1%, whereas none of the remaining 15 patients who did not achieve CR survived (p < .0001). Of the 25 CR cases, 15 underwent subsequent HDCT/ASCT. We compared the effect of HDCT/ASCT among patients who achieved CR. There were no significant differences in the 5-year OS outcomes between patients who did and did not receive HDCT/ASCT (83.9% ± 0.1%, 13/15 vs. 80.0% ± 0.1%, 8/10, respectively; p = .923). CONCLUSION To our knowledge, we report the first comparative cohort study that proved HDCT/ASCT does not significantly improve survival outcomes in relapsed osteosarcoma. Achievement of CR remains the most crucial factor for good survival outcomes.

Attenuation of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Enhances Carvacrol-Induced Apoptosis in Osteosarcoma Cell Lines. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:life13030744.

Abstract
Carvacrol is a monoterpenoid phenol that has excellent antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activities. It can also improve wound healing. However, few studies have explored its antitumor effect on osteosarcoma. In this report, we tried to determine the potential efficacy of carvacrol against osteosarcoma cell lines. Our data revealed that carvacrol exposure inhibited the proliferation of osteosarcoma HOS and U-2 OS cells. In addition, carvacrol exposure enhanced the levels of cleaved PARP and caspase 3 and increased annexin V-positive cells, indicating that carvacrol exposure triggers apoptosis in osteosarcoma cell lines. Furthermore, the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were enhanced after carvacrol exposure and cotreatment with NAC, the ROS scavenger, decreased the levels of cleaved PARP and caspase 3, suggesting the involvement of ROS in carvacrol-induced apoptosis. Importantly, we found that carvacrol exposure triggered several protein expressions related to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, including GRP78/Bip, IRE1a, PERK, and CHOP, in HOS and U-2 OS cells, indicating that carvacrol exposure could result in ER stress in these cell lines. Cotreatment with the ER stress inhibitor 4-PBA increased the levels of cleaved PARP and caspase 3 and further suppressed cellular proliferation in carvacrol-exposed osteosarcoma cell lines. Overall, the results indicate that induced ER stress can protect cells from apoptosis, but increased ROS contributes to apoptosis in carvacrol-treated cells. In this report, we first demonstrate the role of ER stress in carvacrol-induced apoptosis and suggest that ER stress could be targeted to enhance the antitumor activity of carvacrol in osteosarcoma cell lines.

Abstract
Purpose: Osteosarcoma is a typical malignancy of childhood and adolescence. Recurrences usually occur early, but rarely may arise after decades of remission. Little is known about these very late events and we set out to fill this knowledge gap. Methods: The database of the Cooperative Osteosarcoma Study Group (COSS) was searched for patients with a first recurrence of a high-grade central osteosarcoma occurring >10 years after diagnosis of the primary disease. Identified patients were analyzed for demographic, tumor-, and treatment-related factors as well as outcomes. Results: Among a total of 1,178 10-year relapse-free survivors, 17 affected patients were identified. Only five of these had a documented good response to initial chemotherapy. No presenting factor was identified to predict these very late events. Prognosis was generally very poor despite intensive multimodal therapy. Inoperability of the recurrences seems to have constituted a major limiting factor. Conclusion: Osteosarcoma patients should be followed for potential recurrences for well >10 years from initial diagnosis. Only through such an extended truly long-term follow-up and a structured transition of young patients can these be detected while they are still operable and, hence, potentially curable.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1135655. [PMID: 36873361 PMCID: PMC9978000 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1135655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Targeted delivery of antitumor drugs has been recognized as a promising therapeutic modality to improve treatment efficacy, reduce the toxic side effects and inhibit tumor recurrence. In this study, based on the high biocompatibility, large specific surface area, and easy surface modification of small-sized hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-benzimidazole (BM) supramolecular nanovalve, together with bone-targeted alendronate sodium (ALN) were constructed on the surface of small-sized HMSNs. The drug loading capacity and efficiency of apatinib (Apa) in HMSNs/BM-Apa-CD-PEG-ALN (HACA) were 65% and 25%, respectively. More importantly, HACA nanoparticles can release the antitumor drug Apa efficiently compared with non-targeted HMSNs nanoparticles in the acidic microenvironment of the tumor. In vitro studies showed that HACA nanoparticles exhibited the most potent cytotoxicity in osteosarcoma cells (143B cells) and significantly reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Therefore, the drug-efficient release of antitumor effect of HACA nanoparticles is a promising way to treat osteosarcoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pneumothorax and tumor-bronchial fistula are rare complications of pulmonary metastasis of osteosarcoma. OBSERVATIONS We herein report the cases of 3 pediatric and adolescent patients who developed pneumothorax or tumor-bronchial fistula during treatment of pulmonary metastasis of osteosarcoma with chemotherapeutics or antiangiogenic agents. Two patients developed pneumothorax, and the other patient developed tumor-bronchial fistula. All of the patients finally underwent the surgery to treat their complications. CONCLUSIONS Although it is not a curative surgery, surgery for pneumothorax and tumor-bronchial fistula is acceptable. The operative procedure should be considered on the basis of the predicted prognosis of the patient.

Propranolol blocks osteosarcoma cell cycle progression, inhibits angiogenesis and slows xenograft growth in combination with cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Sci Rep 2022; 12:15058. [PMID: 36075937 PMCID: PMC9458647 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-18324-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteosarcoma is still associated with limited response to standard-of-care therapy and alarmingly elevated mortality rates, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Despite multiple efforts to repurpose β-blocker propranolol in oncology, its potential application in osteosarcoma management remains largely unexplored. Considering the unsatisfied clinical needs of this aggressive disease, we evaluated the antitumoral activity of propranolol using different in vitro and in vivo osteosarcoma preclinical models, alone or in addition to chemotherapy. Propranolol significantly impaired cellular growth in β2-adrenergic receptor-expressing MG-63 and U-2OS cells, and was capable of blocking growth-stimulating effects triggered by catecholamines. siRNA-mediated ADRB2 knockdown in MG-63 cells was associated with decreased cell survival and a significant attenuation of PPN anti-osteosarcoma activity. Direct cytostatic effects of propranolol were independent of apoptosis induction and were associated with reduced mitosis, G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and a significant down-regulation of cell cycle regulator Cyclin D1. Moreover, colony formation, 3D spheroid growth, cell chemotaxis and capillary-like tube formation were drastically impaired after propranolol treatment. Interestingly, anti-migratory activity of β-blocker was associated with altered actin cytoskeleton dynamics. In vivo, propranolol treatment (10 mg/kg/day i.p.) reduced the early angiogenic response triggered by MG-63 cells in nude mice. Synergistic effects were observed in vitro after combining propranolol with chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin. Sustained administration of propranolol (10 mg/kg/day i.p., five days a week), alone and especially in addition to low-dose metronomic cisplatin (2 mg/kg/day i.p., three times a week), markedly reduced xenograft progression. After histological analysis, propranolol and cisplatin combination resulted in low tumor mitotic index and increased tumor necrosis. β-blockade using propranolol seems to be an achievable and cost-effective therapeutic approach to modulate osteosarcoma aggressiveness. Further translational studies of propranolol repurposing in osteosarcoma are warranted.

Abstract
Inflammation is a common complication of many chronic diseases. It includes inflammation of the parenchyma and vascular systems. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent histone deacetylase, which can directly participate in the suppression of inflammation. It can also regulate the activity of other proteins. Among them, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) signaling can be inhibited by deacetylating four lysine residues (55, 88, 90, and 177) in quiescent endothelial cells. HMGB1 is a ubiquitous nuclear protein, once translocated outside the cell, which can interact with various target cell receptors including the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), toll-like receptor (TLR) 2, and TLR4 and stimulates the release of pro-inflammatory cyto-/chemokines. And SIRT1 has been reported to inhibit the activity of HMGB1. Both are related to the occurrence and development of inflammation and associated diseases but show an antagonistic relationship in controlling inflammation. Therefore, in this review, we introduce how this signaling axis regulates the emergence of inflammation-related responses and tumor occurrence, providing a new experimental perspective for future inflammation research. In addition, it explores diverse upstream regulators and some natural/synthetic activators of SIRT1 as a possible treatment for inflammatory responses and tumor occurrence which may encourage the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs. Meanwhile, this review also introduces the potential molecular mechanism of the SIRT1-HMGB1 pathway to improve inflammation, suggesting that SIRT1 and HMGB1 proteins may be potential targets for treating inflammation.

Abstract
Background and Objectives After diagnosing a primary bone tumor involving the forearm, various excision strategies and reconstruction methods must be considered. This study explored the oncological and functional outcomes of limb salvage surgery for primary malignant bone tumors in the forearm. Methods Patients with primary forearm bone tumors (n = 369) were retrospectively analyzed between 2000 and 2017. There were 266 patients with radial tumors, and 46 (17.3%) were malignant, whereas 103 patients had ulnar lesions and 22 (21.4%) were malignant tumors. The oncological results, prognostic factors, and functional results after limb salvage surgery of forearm malignancies were analyzed. Results The follow-up averaged 72.1 (7–192, median 62.5) months. Fifty-six patients who received limb salvage surgery were included in the final evaluation. Radius resection was performed in 38 patients, and distal radius (25 patients) was most frequent. Ulnar resection was performed in 18 patients, and the proximal ulna (13 patients) was most frequent. The surgical margins obtained were intralesional in 3 patients, marginal in 8 patients and wide in 45 patients. Local recurrence occurred in 11 patients (19.6%), and distant metastasis occurred in 14 patients (25%). The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate was 79.8%. Unplanned excision, ulnar involvement, proximal forearm location and inadequate surgical margins were associated with recurrence. The overall 5-year and 10-year survival rates were 83.5 and 71.7%, respectively. Distant metastasis was a poor prognostic factor for the survival rate. Forty-two patients were evaluated by MSTS score with an average of 27.9 ± 1.5. Conclusions The incidence of radial malignant tumors is higher than that of ulnar lesions. The distal radius and the proximal ulna are the most frequently involved sites. Unplanned excisions, ulnar tumors, proximal forearm tumors, and inadequate surgical margin are the risk factors for local recurrence. Distant metastasis is an independent poor prognostic factor of death. The oncology control and functional results of limb salvage surgery were satisfactory.

Abstract
Activation of the mTOR pathway has been observed in osteosarcoma, however the inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 has had limited results in osteosarcoma treatment. Certain metabolic pathways can be altered by mTOR activation, which can affect survival. Our aim was to characterize the mTOR profile and certain metabolic alterations in pediatric osteosarcoma to determine the interactions between the mTOR pathway and metabolic pathways. We performed immunohistochemistry on 28 samples to analyze the expression of mTOR complexes such as phospho-mTOR (pmTOR), phosphorylated ribosomal S6 (pS6), and rapamycin-insensitive companion of mTOR (rictor). To characterize metabolic pathway markers, we investigated the expression of phosphofructokinase (PFK), lactate dehydrogenase-A (LDHA), β-F1-ATPase (ATPB), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), glutaminase (GLS), fatty acid synthetase (FASN), and carnitin-O-palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT1A). In total, 61% of the cases showed low mTOR activity, but higher pmTOR expression was associated with poor histological response to chemotherapy and osteoblastic subtype. Rictor expression was higher in metastatic disease and older age at the time of diagnosis. Our findings suggest the importance of the Warburg-effect, pentose-phosphate pathway, glutamine demand, and fatty-acid beta oxidation in osteosarcoma cells. mTOR activation is linked to several metabolic pathways. We suggest performing a detailed investigation of the mTOR profile before considering mTORC1 inhibitor therapy. Our findings highlight that targeting certain metabolic pathways could be an alternative therapeutic approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the treatment modalities of relapsed osteosarcoma, treatment results, and prognostic factors. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of patients treated for relapsed osteosarcoma between 2005 and 2019. Patient survival was compared according to age, performance status, time to relapse, and surgical treatment at the relapse. Values of p<0.05 were considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS We included 49 patients who were treated for osteosarcoma. During the 13-year study period, 16 patients had relapsed osteosarcoma (32.7%). Prognostic factors of relapse were age over 18 years (p = 0.03), axial tumors (p = 0.01), and positive surgical margins (p = 0.018). Nine patients had palliative chemotherapy at the time of relapse. After a median follow-up of 8 months (range: 4-65 months), the overall survival at 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years after diagnosis of the relapse was 46.7%, 31.1%, and 20.7%, respectively. Relapsed osteosarcoma patients who had good performance status, late relapse (after 12 months), as well as surgery of the relapsed disease had better overall survival (OS). CONCLUSION Surgical treatment of relapsed osteosarcoma should be performed whenever possible since it improves significantly the survival of patients. Good performance status and late relapse were also associated with better survival.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the roles of microRNA-886 (miR-886) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) OXCT1-AS1 in osteosarcoma (OS). We predicted that they might interact with each other. The expression of OXCT1-AS1 and miR-886 (mature and premature) in osteosarcoma and paired non-tumor tissues from 66 OS patients was negatively correlated. Overexpression and silencing assays showed that OXCT1-AS1 suppresses miR-886 maturation. RNA-RNA pulldown and subcellular fractionation assays demonstrated the direct interaction between OXCT1-AS1 and miR-886. BrdU proliferation assays revealed that OXCT1-AS1 promoted OS cell proliferation, and miR-886 reduced the enhancing effects of OXCT1-AS1 on OS cell proliferation. Western blot showed that OXCT1-AS1 had no effects on the levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition biomarkers. Overall, OXCT1-AS1 suppresses miR-886 maturation to promote OS cell proliferation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma (OS) often occurs in children and adolescents and is highly malignant. Analyzing the pathogenesis of OS has great significance for prognosis and the discovery of new treatment strategies. METHODS The effects and mechanism of circular RNA (circRNA) on OS were analyzed, as was the correlation between circRASSF2 and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) in data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The expression levels of microRNA (miR)-6838-5p and circRASSF2 in OS cells and osteoblasts were detected. The dual luciferase report was used to verify the targeting relationship. OS cells overexpressing circRASSF2, miR-6838-5p and/or IGF1R were constructed. The expression level of IGF1R and the biological behavior of the cells were detected. Eighty-two pairs of OS tissue and adjacent normal tissue samples were collected, and the levels of circRASSF2, miR-6838-5p, and IGF1R mRNA were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). RESULTS Compared with osteoblasts, OS cells showed lower expression of miR-6838-5p and higher expression of circRASSF2. The dual luciferase report confirmed that miR-6838-5p targeted IGF1R. Overexpression of IGF1R significantly blocked the anticancer effects of miR-6838-5p. The dual luciferase report verified that circRASSF2 targeted miR-6838-5p, and promoted the expression of IGF1R. Overexpression of circRASSF2 not only promoted the malignant biological behavior of OS cells, but also blocked the anticancer effects of miR-6838-5p. In OS tissue, circRASSF2 and IGF1R were upregulated, and the two were positively correlated. MiR-6838-5p was downregulated, which negatively correlated with both circRASSF2 and IGF1R. High levels of circRASSF2 were associated with higher stage and metastasis of OS. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, the promoting effects of IGF1R on OS are targeted by miR-6838-5p. CircRASSF2 restored the expression of IGF1R by sponging miR-6838-5p, thereby promoting the progression of OS.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents and is characterized by early metastasis and frequent recurrence, which greatly affects patient prognosis and survival rates. However, the treatment of OS, its recurrence and subsequent metastasis is now at a clinical bottleneck. To explore new OS chemotherapeutic targets, investigate new therapeutic strategies and improve patient prognosis and survival rates, the roles of paclitaxel (PTX) and monopolar spindle kinase 1 (Mps1) in OS were investigated using in vivo and in vitro models. Mps1 expression was upregulated in OS samples and associated with patient survival times. Moreover, spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) activation and upregulation of Akt/mTOR signaling were both positively associated with OS progression. PTX treatment significantly inhibited Mps1 expression, as well as migration of OS cells both in vitro. In addition, the combination of Mps1 knockdown and PTX treatment inhibited OS progression in vivo. Mps1 overexpression inhibited the expression of SAC markers and upregulated Akt and mTOR expression, while Mps1 knockdown had the opposite effect. Cells subjected to combined Mps1 knockdown and PTX treatment exhibited activation of SAC and inhibition of Akt/mTOR signaling compared with Mps1 knockdown or PTX treatment alone. Based on these observations, Mps1 inhibition combined with PTX treatment may represent a potentially effective strategy for the treatment of OS.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs show essential roles in various cancer processes. This study aimed at the expression features, prognosis significance, and biological effect of lnc MATN1-AS1 in osteosarcoma (OS). Five kinds of cell lines and 117 pairs of tissues were analyzed by qRT-PCR for quantification of lnc MATN1-AS1 and miR-1299 level. Clinical data were analyzed using Chi-Square Tests to show the association with lnc MATN1-AS1 level. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression were used to judge the prognostic value. Cell counting kit-8 and Transwell assay were conducted, respectively, to analyze the effect of lnc MATN1-AS1 on cell proliferation and metastasis. The target miRNA was predicted. lnc MATN1-AS1 level was significantly elevated in OS cells and tissues and related to Enneking staging, lung metastasis, and histologic type. Patients with high lnc MATN1-AS1 level showed a shorter overall survival and recurrence-free survival. Lnc MATN1-AS1 knockdown inhibited OS cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by sponging miR-1299. Lnc MATN1-AS1 has oncogenic features and prognostic significance in OS and is a novel therapeutic strategy for OS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma (OS) is a type of bone cancer that occurs in children and adolescents at a rate of 5%. The purpose of this study is to explore the lncRNA GNAS-AS1 expression profile, prognosis significance in OS, and biological effect on OS cell function. METHODS One hundred eight pairs of tissues were collected, and OS cell lines were purchased. lncRNA GNAS-AS1 expression in these tissues and cells were analyzed by qRT-PCR. Clinical data were analyzed using chi-square tests, Kaplan-Meier curves (log-rank test), and Cox regression. CCK-8 and transwell assay were conducted to analyze the effect of lncRNA GNAS-AS1 on cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. The downstream miRNA was presumed. RESULTS The expression of lncRNA GNAS-AS1 was significantly increased in OS cells and tissues, and related to Enneking staging and distant metastasis. Patients with high lncRNA GNAS-AS1 expression represented shorter overall survival and was an independent prognostic predictor of OS. LncRNA GNAS-AS1 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by regulated miR-490-3p partly at least. CONCLUSIONS LncRNA GNAS-AS1 can be used as a prognostic indicator and its inhibition suppress the development of OS, suggesting its value as novel therapeutic strategies in OS.

Abstract
Background Bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals can deposit radiation selectively to some osteosarcoma tumours because of the bone-forming nature of this cancer. Objectives This is the first report of using 223-radium, an alpha-emitting calcium analogue with a high therapeutic index, in combination therapy with other agents in 15 patients with metastatic osteoblastic osteosarcoma. Methods Candidates for alpha-radiotherapy if 99mTc-MDP bone scan had avid bone-forming lesions and no therapy of higher priority (eg, definitive surgery). Monthly 223-radium infusions (1.49 μCi/kg or 55.13 kBq/kg) were given. Results The median infusion number was three and the average time to progression was 4.3 months for this cohort receiving 223-radium+other agents. Agents provided during 223-radium included (1) drugs to reduce skeletal complications: monthly denosumab (n=13) or zolendronate (n=1); (2) agents with antivascular endothelial growth factor activity, pazopanib (n=8) or sorafenib (n=1), (3) alkylating agents: oral cyclophosphamide (n=1) or ifosfamide, given as a 14-day continuous infusion (n=1, two cycles), (4) high-dose methotrexate (n=1), pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (n=1); and (5) two other combinations: nivolumab and everolimus (n=1) and rapamycin and auranofin (n=1). Radiation therapy, including stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), was also given to 11 patients concurrently with 223-radium (n=2), after 223-radium completion (n=3), or both concurrently and then sequentially for other sites (n=6). After 223-radium infusions, patients without RT had a median overall survival of 4.3 months compared with those with SBRT and/or RT, who had a median overall survival of 13.5 months. Conclusion Although only 1/15 of patients with osteoblastic osteosarcoma still remain alive after 223-radium, overall survival

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor, and its first line of treatment presents a high failure rate. The 5-year survival for children and teenagers with osteosarcoma is 70% (if diagnosed before it has metastasized) or 20% (if spread at the time of diagnosis), stressing the need for novel therapies. Recently, cold atmospheric plasmas (ionized gases consisting of UV-Vis radiation, electromagnetic fields and a great variety of reactive species) and plasma-treated liquids have been shown to have the potential to selectively eliminate cancer cells in different tumors through an oxidative stress-dependent mechanism. In this work, we review the current state of the art in cold plasma therapy for osteosarcoma. Specifically, we emphasize the mechanisms unveiled thus far regarding the action of plasmas on osteosarcoma. Finally, we review current and potential future approaches, emphasizing the most critical challenges for the development of osteosarcoma therapies based on this emerging technique.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most primary type of bone tumor occurring in the pediatric and adolescent age groups. In order to obtain the most appropriate prognosis, both tumor recurrence inhibition and bone repair promotion are required. In this study, a ternary nanoscale biomaterial/antitumor drug complex including hydroxyapatite (HA), bovine serum albumin (BSA) and paclitaxel (PTX) is prepared for post-surgical cancer treatment of osteosarcoma in situ. The HA-BSA-PTX nanoparticles, about 55 nm in diameter with drug loading efficiency (32.17 wt%), have sustained release properties of PTX and calcium ions (Ca2+ ) and low cytotoxicity to human fetal osteoblastic (hFOB 1.19) cells in vitro. However, for osteosarcoma (143B) cells, the proliferation, migration, and invasion ability are significantly inhibited. The in situ osteosarcoma model studies demonstrate that HA-BSA-PTX nanoparticles have significant anticancer effects and can effectively inhibit tumor metastasis. Meanwhile, the detection of alkaline phosphatase activity, calcium deposition, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction proves that the HA-BSA-PTX nanoparticles can promote the osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, the HA-BSA-PTX nanodrug delivery system combined with sustained drug release, antitumor, and osteogenesis effects is a promising agent for osteosarcoma adjuvant therapy.

Abstract
B7-H3 is actively being explored as an immunotherapy target for pediatric patients with solid tumors using monoclonal antibodies or T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). B7-H3-CARs containing a 41BB costimulatory domain are currently favored by several groups based on preclinical studies. In this study, we initially performed a detailed analysis of T cells expressing B7-H3-CARs with different hinge/transmembrane (CD8α versus CD28) and CD28 or 41BB costimulatory domains (CD8α/CD28, CD8α/41BB, CD28/CD28, CD28/41BB). Only subtle differences in effector function were observed between CAR T cell populations in vitro. However, CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells consistently outperformed other CAR T cell populations in three animal models, resulting in a significant survival advantage. We next explored whether adding 41BB signaling to CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells would further enhance effector function. Surprisingly, incorporating 41BB signaling into the CAR endodomain had detrimental effects, while expressing 41BBL on the surface of CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells enhanced their ability to kill tumor cells in repeat stimulation assays. Furthermore, 41BBL expression enhanced CD8α/CD28-CAR T cell expansion in vivo and improved antitumor activity in one of four evaluated models. Thus, our study highlights the intricate interplay between CAR hinge/transmembrane and costimulatory domains. Based on our study, we selected CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells expressing 41BBL for early phase clinical testing.

Abstract
Introduction PLAC 2 is a tumor-suppressive lncRNA in glioma, while its roles in other types of cancer remain unclear. This study was carried out to explore the potential involvement of PLAC 2 in osteosarcoma (OS). Methods Expression levels of PLAC 2 in OS and paired non-tumor tissues from OS patients were determined by RT-qPCR. A follow-up study was performed to analyze the prognostic value of PLAC 2 for OS. Interactions between PLAC 2 and miR-93 were assessed by cell transfection, followed by RT-qPCR. Cell proliferation assay was performed to analyze cell proliferation. Results Our results showed that PLAC 2 was downregulated in OS tissues, and the high expression levels of PLAC 2 were associated with favorable overall survival of OS patients. MiR-93 was upregulated in OS tissues and its expression was inversely correlated with the expression of PLAC 2. In OS cells, overexpression of PLAC 2 resulted in downregulated miR-93, while overexpression of miR-93 did not affect the expression of PLAC 2. Overexpression of PLAC 2 led to decreased proliferation rate of OS cells, while overexpression of miR-93 showed opposite roles and reduced the overexpressing effects of PLAC 2. Conclusion PLAC 2 is downregulated in OS and regulates cancer cell proliferation through miR-93.

Abstract
Introduction: Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor. It is currently treated with pre-and postoperative chemotherapy, associated with surgical resection of the tumor.Area covered: Relapses occur in about one in three patients presenting with localized disease, and three in four of those with metastases at diagnosis. Relapsing disease carries a very poor prognosis, with 5-year survival rates ranging between 13% and 40%.Expert opinion: Patients with unilateral lung involvement or solitary lung metastases and a recurrence-free interval (RFI) longer than 24 months have a better prognosis, and could be managed with surgical resection and close observation. Complete surgical resection of all sites of disease remains essential to survival: patients unable to achieve complete remission have a catastrophic overall survival rate. The role of second-line chemotherapy is not at all clear, and no controlled studies are available on this topic. It is worth considering for patients unable to achieve complete surgical remission, and those with multiple metastases and/or a RFI <24 months. Given their dismal prognosis, patients with multiple sites of disease not amenable to complete surgical resection should also be considered for innovative therapeutic approaches.
