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.

MicroRNA-886 suppresses osteosarcoma cell proliferation and its maturation is suppressed by long non-coding RNA OXCT1-AS1
