Furthermore, GIT1 and SEMA4C knockdown inhibited the cell growth and reversed EMT, just like the effects of miR‐138 overexpression on NSCLC cells, whereas ectopic expression of GIT1 and SEMA4C partly rescued the suppressive effects of miR‐138 in NSCLC cells. This evidence concerns the gene GIT1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
