Abstract Although increasing evidence indicates that the deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) contributes to tumorigenesis and invasion, little is known about the role of miR-133b in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
In the present study, we revealed that the introduction of miR-133b dramatically suppressed NSCLC cell
growth, migration, and invasion in vitro. On the contrary, miR-133b inhibitors promoted cell growth, migration, and invasion in vitro. Further studies revealed that matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) is a direct target
gene of miR-133b. Silencing MMP9 inhibited cell growth, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells, which
was consistent with the More >
