Abstract

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant tumor of the bone, with a high mortality rate and poor prognosis. Receptor tyrosine kinase‑like orphan receptor 2 (ROR2) has been reported to be dysregulated in human malignancies. More recently, ROR2 has been demonstrated to promote OS cell migration and invasion. However, the role of ROR2 in the regulation of OS cell proliferation, as well as the underlying molecular mechanism, remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanism of ROR2 in osteosarcoma growth. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis and western blot analysis were used to examine the mRNA and protein expression. MTT assay, colony formation assay and cell cycle analysis were conducted to explore the function of ROR2 in osteosarcoma cells. In the present study, the expression of ROR2 was found to be frequently upregulated in OS tissues compared with matched adjacent normal tissues. It was also upregulated in the OS cell lines Saos‑2, MG‑63 and U‑2 OS, relative to normal osteoblast hFOB 1.19 cells. Knockdown of ROR2 expression by transfection with ROR2‑specific siRNA markedly inhibited the proliferation and colony formation of OS cells. Data from the cell cycle distribution assay revealed an accumulation of ROR2‑knockdown cells in the G0/G1 phase, indicating that knockdown of ROR2 leads to an arrest in cell cycle progression. Mechanistic investigation revealed that the protein levels of c‑myc, a target gene of the Wnt signaling, as well as cyclin D1, cyclin E and cyclin‑dependent kinase 4 were markedly reduced in the ROR2‑knockdown OS cells, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of ROR2 knockdown on OS cell proliferation is associated with the Wnt signaling pathway. In summary, the current study indicates an important role for ROR2 in the proliferation of OS cells. Therefore, ROR2 may be a promising therapeutic target in OS.
