Abstract

Numerous microRNAs (miRNA/miRs) have been reported to be associated with the initiation and progression of non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of the present study was to examine the expression and biological role of miR‑939 in human NSCLC, in vitro. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis was used to evaluate the expression of miR‑939 in NSCLC tissues. Cell Counting Kit‑8, 5‑ethynyl‑29‑deoxyuridine and Transwell assays were also used to determine the effects of miR‑939 on tumor cell proliferation and invasion in two human NSCLC cell lines (H1299 and SPCA1). Furthermore, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP2) was confirmed to be a target of miR‑939 by luciferase reporter assay, western blotting and bioinformatics analysis. Following downregulation of miR‑939 expression, cell proliferative and invasive abilities were significantly suppressed. Collectively, these findings indicated that the knockdown of miR‑939 may inhibit cell proliferation and invasion by regulating the expression of TIMP2 in NSCLC cells. Thus, miR‑939 may be a potential target in the treatment of NSCLC, although this requires further investigation.
