Schematic diagram of proposed mechanism. lncRNA H19 promoted matrix mineralization of osteoblasts through miR-185-5p/IGF1 axis. In mineralization condition, H19 is up-regulated and sponge miR-185-5p. The decreased in miR-185-5p availability, increases the level and translation of IGF1 mRNA, which in turn up-regulates the expression of OCN, ALP and Col1agen I involved in bone matrix mineralization. By contrast, when miR-185-5p is up-regulated, because H19 is decreased, the level of IGF1 is diminished and subsequent inhibition of mineralization, with arrows indicating the process
