Abstract EN
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implied to play crucial roles for epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of non-small-cell lung cancer cells (NSCLC cells).
Here we found that the expression of miR-149, downregulated in lung cancer, was inversely correlated with invasive capability and the EMT phenotype of NSCLC cells.
miR-149 inhibited EMT in NSCLC cells.
Furthermore, we demonstrated that miR-149 directly targeted Forkhead box M1 (FOXM1), and FOXM1 was involved in the EMT induced by TGF-β1 in A549 cells.
Overexpression of FOXM1 restored EMT process inhibited by miR-149.
Our work suggested that miR-149 might be an EMT suppressor in NSCLC cells.
