Overexpression of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) is associated with tumor progression in various cancers. The role of FGFR3 in melanoma remains unclear. Here, the study shows that FGFR3 mRNA expression levels are higher in melanoma tissues than in normal healthy tissues. FGFR3 expression in cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) tissues is positively correlated with Breslow thickness and lymph node metastasis. In A357 cells, knockdown of the FGFR3 gene reduces caspase 3 activity and apoptosis, while increasing caspase 3 activity and apoptosis rate. Conversely, overexpression of FGFR3 enhances caspase 3 activity, proliferation, invasion, and migration, but reduces caspase 3 activity and apoptosis rate. Furthermore, knockdown of FGFR3 upregulates E-cadherin expression, downregulates N-cadherin and vimentin expression, and reduces the phosphorylation levels of ERK, AKT, and EGFR. In the MCC xenograft mouse model, knockdown of FGFR3 reduced tumor growth and metastasis. Therefore, these studies indicate that FGFR3 is highly expressed in CMM tissues and is associated with increased Breslow thickness and lymph node metastasis. FGFR3 may promote melanoma growth, metastasis, and EMT behavior by influencing the phosphorylation levels of ERK, AKT, and EGFR.

In vitro experiments showed that FGFR3 knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation of A357 cells. At the same time, FGFR3 overexpression significantly promoted the proliferation of these cells. The apoptosis rate of FGFR3 knockdown cells was significantly increased. In contrast, the apoptosis rate of FGFR3 overexpression cells was significantly decreased (Figure 1e-f). Caspase-3 activity was significantly increased in FGFR3 knockdown A357 cells, while it was significantly decreased in FGFR3 overexpression cells (Figure 1g-h). The number of colonies formed in FGFR3 knockdown A357 cells was significantly reduced compared to control cells (Figure 1a-b). However, the number of colonies formed in FGFR3 overexpression A357 cells was significantly increased compared to control cells (Figure 1c-d).
