    Abstract:
    Osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) plays an essential role in bone formation. Its imbalance can lead to osteoporosis. Estrogen and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been confirmed to participate in osteogenesis. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. The purpose of our study was to explore the function of lncRNA H19 in estrogen-induced osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. The present research demonstrated that the expression levels of lncRNA H19 and SIRT1 were markedly downregulated in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP), while miR-532-3p expression was obviously increased. Moreover, estrogen induced the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by upregulating lncRNA H19. Furthermore, our integrated experiments showed that lncRNA H19 caused a decrease in the expression of miR-532-3p, which was verified to target SIRT1 directly. Additionally, estrogen alleviated osteoporosis in OVX rats through lncRNA H19-mediated miR-532-3p/SIRT1 axis. Our findings imply that lncRNA H19 mediates estrogen-regulated osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs via miR-532-3p/SIRT1 signalling and may become a novel target for alleviating PMOP.
