Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant epithelial carcinoma of the head and neck with strong ability of invasion and metastasis. Our previous study indicated that miR-324-3p, as a tumor-suppressive factor, could regulate radioresistance of NPC cells by targeting WNT2B. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of miR-324-3p on migration and invasion in NPC cells. Quantitative real time PCR was applied to measure the expression level of miR-324-3p and WNT2B mRNA in both cells and tissues, and the expression level of WNT2B protein was determined by western blotting. The capacity of migration and invasion were tested by using wound healing and transwell invasion assay. Ectopic expression of miR-324-3p or silencing its target gene WNT2B could dramatically suppress migration and invasion capacity of NPC cells. Meanwhile, the alterations of miR-324-3p in NPC cells could influence the expression level of the biomarkers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), including E-cadherin and Vimentin. Moreover, the expression of miR-324-3p was obviously downregulated and WNT2B was significantly upregulated in NPC tissues. The expression levels of miR-324-3p and WNT2B were closely correlated with T stage, clinic stage and cervical lymph node metastasis of NPC (P < 0.05). miR-324-3p could suppress the migration and invasion of NPC by targeting WNT2B and the miR-324-3p/WNT2B pathway possibly provide new potential therapeutic clues for NPC.
