Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is prevalent in Africa and East Asia, particularly
in the southern areas of China. Previous data has demonstrated that microRNAs
(miRNAs/miRs) may be involved in the formation and progression of NPC. The
deregulation of miR-342 has been identified in multiple types of cancer. However,
to the best of our knowledge, there are no data concerning miR-342 in NPC. The
present study aimed to measure miR-342 expression in NPC, and to investigate its
roles in NPC initiation and progression, in addition to the underlying molecular
mechanisms. miR-342 was significantly downregulated in NPC tissues and cell
lines. Low miR-342 expression was associated with distant metastasis and tumor
node metastasis stage in patients with NPC. The restoration of the expression of
miR-342 suppressed cell proliferation and invasion of NPC in vitro. In addition,
ZEB1 was identified as a direct target gene of miR-342 in NPC. Downregulation of
ZEB1 mimicked the tumor-suppressive roles of miR-342 in NPC. Taken together, the
present study identified that miR-342 directly targeted ZEB1 to inhibit NPC cell
growth and invasion, which may provide a novel therapeutic target for the
treatments of patients with this malignancy.
