The present study aimed to verify the function of miR-96 and miR-96 in relation to competing with endogenous RNA regulatory network in NSCLC progression including proliferation and metastasis.Materials and Methods: Clinical data of miR-96 expression was collected from StarBase 2.0 developed by Sun Yat-sen University. We used wound-healing, transwell and MTT assays to measure migration, invasion and proliferation of NSCLC cell lines after different treatment. Quantitative real time PCR and western blot were used to test differential genes expression. In order to identify target between genes (FOXO1 and DUSP1) and miR-96, luciferase assay was used. Luciferase activities in FOXO1 and DUSP1 wild type plasmid groups were compared to mutant groups.Results: qRT-PCR and online database results indicated that miR-96 is highly associated with NSCLC when compared to normal patients. In addition, miR-96 indeed induced migration, invasion and proliferation of NSCLC cell line. In addition, FOXO1 and DUSP1 are targets of miR-96 and these three molecules form competing endogenous RNA network. miR-96 related competing endogenous RNA network affects cell metastasis via epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling.Conclusion: miR-96 can be considered as one of tumor-inducer and form competing endogenous RNA network with FOXO1 and DUSP1, which affects downstream EGFR signaling.
