Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant tumor in adolescent bone malignancies. It has the characteristics of a high metastasis rate, high mortality and poor prognosis. As a subclass of endogenous noncoding RNAs, circRNAs have been identified to be related to the occurrence, development and prognosis of different kinds of cancers, but the mechanism of their effect on osteosarcoma is not clear. In the present study, we identified a novel circRNA, hsa_circ_0087302, by RNA-seq, and we found that it was expressed at low levels in osteosarcoma. Using RT-PCR, we confirmed that the expression of hsa_circ_0087302 in osteosarcoma cells was lower than that in osteoblasts. Functional validation experiments revealed that hsa_circ_0087302 overexpression inhibited proliferation, cell cycle, migration, and invasion in osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, Western blotting experiments demonstrated that hsa_circ_0087302 affected the expression of cell cycle- and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related proteins. For the first time, we identified that hsa_circ_0087302 may affect the malignant biological behavior of osteosarcoma cells through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. In summary, hsa_circ_0087302 may provide a new direction for the diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcoma.
