Abstract

Aberrant microRNA expression has been implicated in metastasis of cancers. MiR-661 accelerates proliferation and invasion of breast cancer and ovarian cancer, while impedes that of glioma. Its role in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and underlying mechanism are worthy elucidation. Expression of miR-661 was measured with real-time PCR in both NSCLC tissues and cell lines. The effects of miR-661 on migration, invasion and metastasis capacity of NSCLC were evaluated using wound healing, transwell assay and animal models. Dual reporter luciferase assay and complementary experiments were performed to validate RB1 as a direct target of miR-661 for participation in the progression of NSCLC. MiR-661 was upregulated in NSCLC tissues as compared to paired adjacent tissues and associated with shorter overall survival. Furthermore, miR-661 promoted proliferation, migration and metastasis of NSCLC. Then, we identified RB1 as a direct target of miR-661 through which miR-661 affected EMT process and metastasis of NSCLC. RB1 interacted with E2F1 and both could mediate EMT process in NSCLC. MiR-661 promotes metastasis of NSCLC through RB/E2F1 signaling and EMT events, thus may serves as a negative prognostic factor and possible target for treatment of NSCLC patient.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 July 2017.
All research outputs
#18,562,247
of 22,990,068 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Cancer
#1,297
of 1,731 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#217,896
of 283,549 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Cancer
#30
of 44 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,990,068 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,731 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.7. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 283,549 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 44 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
