Approximately 40% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) develop bone metastasis. The formin protein formin-like 1 (FMNL1) plays a key role in the pathogenic processes of hematopoietic malignancies, and has been reported to be associated with the progression of multiple types of cancer. In the study, we found that FMNL1 expression was markedly up-regulated in primary NSCLC samples, and stronger expression of FNML1 was detected in bone metastasis. Reducing FMNL1 expression significantly suppressed cell proliferation in NSCLC cells. We also investigated the functional effects of FMNL1 knockdown on the inhibition of migration and invasion by meditating the expression of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated signals in NSCLC cells. The transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/SMADs signaling pathway was repressed in FMNL1-knockdown NSCLC cells. Further studies indicated that additional treatment with TGF-β1 could markedly abrogate FMNL1 knockdown-induced suppression of migration and invasion in NSCLC cells. In addition, NSCLC cell-induced osteoclastogenesis was also inhibited by FMNL1 deletion, as evidenced by the down-regulated expression of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and NFATc1. In vivo studies confirmed the results that FMNL1 knockdown markedly limited tumor growth. Importantly, decreasing FMNL1 reduced bone metastasis ability in vivo. Therefore, our results demonstrated that suppressing FMNL1 expression could inhibit bone metastasis in NSCLC through blocking TGF-β1 signaling, and FMNL1 might be a novel target for developing effective therapeutic strategy to limit the bone metastasis of NSCLC. |
