Abstract Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators in many types of cancer, including
osteosarcoma. miR-342-3p has emerged as an important cancer-related miRNA in several types of cancers.
However, the functional significance of miR-342-3p in osteosarcoma is unknown. The aims of this study were
to investigate whether miR-342-3p is dysregulated in osteosarcoma and to explore the biological function of
miR-342-3p in regulating cellular processes of osteosarcoma cells. We found that miR-342-3p expression was
significantly decreased in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of miR-342-3p inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma cells. In… More >
