Our recent study of the microRNA expression signature of prostate cancer (PCa) revealed that microRNA‐224 ( miR‐224 ) is significantly downregulated in PCa tissues. Here, we found that restoration of miR‐224 significantly inhibits PCa cell migration and invasion. Additionally, we found that oncogenic TPD52 is a direct target of miR‐224 regulation. Silencing of the TPD52 gene significantly inhibits cancer cell migration and invasion. Moreover, TPD52 expression is upregulated in cancer tissues and negatively correlates with miR‐224 expression. We conclude that loss of tumour‐suppressive miR‐224 enhances cancer cell migration and invasion in PCa through direct regulation of oncogenic TPD52 .
