Caveolin-1 (CAV-1), which is an oncoprotein and a tumor suppressor, is highly expressed in normal osteoblasts. Although researchers have investigated its role in human osteosarcoma, the mechanism of caveolin-1 action in osteosarcoma remains unknown. In the present study, Saos-2 and U-2 OS cells were cultured with a continuous induction protocol of gradually increasing Taxol concentration for 6 months to establish drug-resistant cell lines. CAV-1 expression levels in osteosarcoma cells were detected via western blotting and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. CAV-1 knockdown was achieved using a short hair-pin RNA lentivirus vector, and cell viability was analyzed by MTT assay. The effect of caveolin-1 on autophagy was investigated, and the downregulation of caveolin-1 and increased autophagy was identified in Taxol-resistant osteosarcoma cells. In addition, the results of the present study demonstrated that downregulation of caveolin-1 promotes autophagy and induces osteosarcoma cell resistance to Taxol. Notably, overexpression of CAV-1 resensitized drug-resistant cells to Taxol via declined autophagy. In conclusion, CAV-1 was demonstrated to be downregulated in Taxol-resistant osteosarcoma cells, and overexpression of CAV-1 in human osteosarcoma cells suppressed Taxol resistance by attenuating PI3K-Akt-JNK-dependent autophagy. The present findings suggest that further investigation into CAV-1's role in Taxol resistance is warranted. In the future, detection of CAV-1 may be used as an indicator to evaluate the treatment and prognosis of patients with osteosarcoma.
