ABSTRACT
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that, when dysregulated, are involved in the initiation and progression of various cancers, including lung cancer, in humans. In the current study, qRT-PCR was performed to measure miR-211 expression in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines and tissues. Cell proliferation, cell cycle, colony formation, and invasion were performed to detect the functional role of miR-211 in human NSCLC cell line. We used luciferase reporter assay to find the potential target of miR-211. We found that miR-211 expression was upregulated in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines and tissues. The overexpression of miR-211 enhanced NSCLC cell proliferation, colony formation, and invasion. SRC kinase signaling inhibitor 1 (SRCIN1) was identified as a direct target of miR-211. SRCIN1 silencing promoted cell proliferation, and SRCIN1 expression was downregulated in human NSCLC cell lines. Thus, miR-211 may function as an oncogenic miRNA in NSCLC, partly by regulating SRCIN1, and the modulation of miR-211 expression represents a potential strategy for the treatment of NSCLC patients.
