From PubMed database
miR-382 inhibits migration and invasion by targeting ROR1 through regulating EMT in ovarian cancer.

Increasing evidence suggests that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in tumorigenesis. Decreased expression of miR382 has been observed in various types of cancers. However, the biological function of miRNA-382 in ovarian cancer is still largely unknown. Here, we found miR382 was downregulated in human ovarian cancer tissues and cell lines. miR382 inhibited ovarian cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Furthermore, we identified receptor tyrosine kinase orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) as a target of miR382, and miR382 rescued the promotion effect of ROR1 on migration, invasion and EMT process in SKOV3 and COV434 cells. Collectively, these findings revealed that miR382 inhibits migration and invision by targeting ROR1 through regulating EMT in ovarian cancer, and might serve as a tumor suppressor in ovarian cancer.
