الوصف: Objective In lung cancer patients, most deaths are caused by the distant dissemination of cancer cells. Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and collective cell migration are distinct and important mechanisms involved in cancer invasion and metastasis. Additionally, microRNA dysregulation contributes significantly to cancer progression. In this study, we aimed to explore the function of miR‐503 in cancer metastasis. Methods Molecular manipulations (silencing or overexpression) were performed to investigate the biological functions of miR‐503 including migration and invasion. Reorganization of cytoskeleton was assessed using immunofluorescence and the relationship between miR‐503 and downstream protein tyrosine kinase 7 (PTK7) was assessed using quantitative real‐time PCR, immunoblotting, and reporter assays. The tail vein metastatic animal experiments were performed. Results Herein, we demonstrated that the downregulation of miR‐503 confers an invasive phenotype in lung cancer cells and provided in vivo evidence that miR‐503 significantly inhibits metastasis. We found that miR‐503 inversely regulates EMT, identified PTK7 as a novel miR‐503 target, and showed the functional effects of miR‐503 on cell migration and invasion were restored upon reconstitution of PTK7 expression. As PTK7 is a Wnt/planar cell polarity protein crucial for collective cell movement, these results implicated miR‐503 in both EMT and collective migration. However, the expression of PTK7 did not influence EMT induction, suggesting that miR‐503 regulates EMT through mechanisms other than PTK7 inhibition. Furthermore, we discovered that PTK7 mechanistically activates focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and paxillin, thereby controlling the reorganization of the cortical actin cytoskeleton. Conclusion Collectively, miR‐503 is capable of governing EMT and PTK7/FAK signaling independently to control the invasion and dissemination of lung cancer cells, indicating that miR‐503 represents a pleiotropic regulator of cancer metastasis and hence a ...
