Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of multiple cancers, including non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The aim of this study was to determine the expression pattern of miR-769-5p in NSCLC and to investigate its biological role during tumorigenesis. We showed that miR-769-5p was significantly downregulated and predicted poor prognosis in NSCLC compared with corresponding normal tissues. We then investigated its function and found that miR-769-5p significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and reduced tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Furthermore, we explored the molecular mechanisms by which miR-769-5p contributes to NSCLC suppression and identified TGFBR1 as a direct target gene of miR-769-5p. Finally, we showed that TGFBR1 had opposite effects to those of miR-769-5p on lung cancer cells, suggesting that miR-769-5p might inhibit lung tumorigenesis by silencing TGFBR1 VSports手机版. Taken together, our results demonstrated that miR-769-5p plays a pivotal role in NSCLC by inhibiting cell proliferation, migration and invasion by targeting TGFBR1. .
