Objective To investigate the mechanisms of super-enhancer-associated LINC01485/miR-619-5p/RUNX2 signaling axis involvement in osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). Methods Osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs was induced in vitro . The expression levels of LINC01485 and miR-619-5p during osteogenesis were measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Osteogenic differentiation was examined by qRT-PCR, western blot, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, ALP activity measurement, and Alizarin Red S (ARS) staining assays. Thereafter, the effects of LINC01485 and miR-619-5p on osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs were evaluated by performing loss- and gain-of-function experiments. Subsequently, a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay was employed to determine the cellular localization of LINC01485. Bioinformatics analysis, RNA antisense purification (RAP) assay, and dual-luciferase reporter assays were conducted to analyze the interactions of LINC01485, miR-619-5p, and RUNX2. Rescue experiments were performed to further delineate the role of the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) signaling axis consisting of LINC01485/miR-619-5p/RUNX2 in osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. Results The expression of LINC01485 was up-regulated during osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. The overexpression of LINC01485 promoted osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs by up-regulating the expression of osteogenesis-relat...
