Abstract

MicroRNAs are a class of small endogenous non-coding RNAs that play crucial roles in the initiation and progression of human cancers. miR-186 was found decreased in various human malignancies and function as a tumor suppressor. However, the regulating mechanism of miR-186 in growth and metastasis of human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still poorly understood. We investigated the role of miR-186 in the growth and metastasis of human NSCLC. In the present study, we found that miR-186 was significantly decreased in lung cancer tissues and cells. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-186 suppressed lung cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and induced cell apoptosis. Moreover, we found that confirmed mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 2 (MAP3K2) protein was increased in lung cancer tissues and confirmed that MAP3K2 is a target gene of miR-186. In addition, knockdown of MAP3K2 by RNA interference inhibited lung cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promoted cell apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, we observed tthat the overexpression of MAP3K2 partially reversed the inhibitory effect of miR-186 on the proliferation and metastasis of A549 and HCC827 cell lines. Taken together, our data indicated that miR-186 regulates lung cancer growth and metastasis through suppressing MAP3K2 expression, at least partly. Therefore, miR-186-MAP3K2 may represent a new and useful potential clinical treatment and diagnosis target for NSCLC.
