We investigated the effect of micro‐RNA 24 (miR‐24) and WWOX on non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell proliferation and migration in vitro and in vivo. We performed bioinformatics analysis and 3′ untranslated region luciferase assay to investigate the direct target of miR‐24. Proliferation, apoptosis, and transwell invasion assays were employed to evaluate the effect of WWOX overexpression with pcDNA3‐WWOX and knocking down miR‐24 with miR‐24 small interfering RNA. Quantitative real‐time PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry were also used to investigate miR‐24 and c‐Kit expression, and apoptosis and invasion‐related proteins. Finally, we constructed a tumor xenograft model in nude mice to confirm the effect of miR‐24 on NSCLC cell proliferation in vivo. According to our experimental data, miR‐24 inhibition could induce apoptosis by activating caspase 3 and suppress the viability and proliferation of NSCLC cells in vitro and in vivo. MiR‐24 downregulation could reduce the invasive ability of NSCLC cells by downregulating MMP9. WWOX was identified as a functional target of miR‐24. WWOX overexpression generated the same effect with antagonizing miR‐24, while blocking WWOX counteracted the tumor suppressive effect caused by miR‐24 inhibition. MiR‐24 may function as an oncogene and play an important role in the cell growth and migration of NSCLC. Our findings enhance understanding of the miR‐24 regulatory network and the molecular mechanism that underlies the oncogenesis and development of NSCLC. Suppressing the effect of miR‐24 on cancer cells using a miR‐24 inhibitor may be an attractive therapeutic strategy against NSCLC.
