Abstract

Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) is a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family, which has been shown to regulate the progression of several tumors. Recent studies indicated that BMP9 affects osteosarcoma (OS) processes, but its specific roles and molecular mechanisms have yet to be fully elucidated. The human OS cell lines 143B and MG63 were used for the present study. We found that BMP9 overexpression suppressed the growth of OS cells, whereas inhibition of BMP9 reversed this effect. Our results also showed that BMP9 overexpression induced G0/G1 phase arrest and apoptosis in OS cells. We further investigated the possible molecular mechanisms mediating the biological role of BMP9. We observed that BMP9 overexpression reduced β-catenin mRNA and protein levels, and also downregulated its downstream proteins c-Myc and osteoprotegerin (OPG) and inhibited the phosphorylation levels of GSK-3β (Ser 9) in OS cells, whereas inhibition of BMP9 reversed these effects. Moreover, the suppressive effects of BMP9 overexpression on OS cells was reversed by exogenous β-catenin expression, but augmented by β-catenin silencing. In conclusion, our results revealed that BMP9 can regulate tumor growth of OS cells through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Therefore, BMP9 may be a new therapeutic target in OS.
