“…This is consistent with previous studies by Blondeau et al and Yu et al [15, 16]. Moreover, further validation was performed in an additional cohort of RCC clinical tissue specimens and cell lines.…”

High expression of the long non-coding RNA HEIRCC promotes Renal Cell Carcinoma metastasis by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition

Increasing evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been associated with cancer development. However, the contributions of lncRNAs to renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remain poorly characterized. Here, we identified a novel lncRNA, termed HEIRCC, which was up-regulated in RCC tissues through lncRNA microarray analysis and subsequent validation in 60 RCC clinical specimens and cell lines. The high expression of HEIRCC is associated closely with the clinical pathology features such as larger tumor size, poor differentiation, lymphatic metastasis. In vitro assays revealed that HEIRCC knockdown could inhibit cell proliferation, trigger late apoptosis, suppress cell migration and invasion. We further demonstrated that depletion of HEIRCC reduce the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) program by regulating expression levels of EMT-associated markers in RCC cells. Thus, HEIRCC might be act as an important regulator of EMT in RCC progression and might be a novel therapeutic target for the advanced RCC therapy.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the clinical values, including clinicopathology, prognosis, and diagnosis of different long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A total of 14 eligible studies, including 10 on clinicopathological features, 11 on prognosis, and 3 on diagnosis were identified. Results revealed that metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1(MALAT1) expression was associated with tumor stage (odds ratio [OR], 3.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.63-7.36; p=0.001). The high expression of MALAT1 could be considered a biomarker of the early detection of lymph node metastasis and predictor of poor survival in RCC patients, who likely manifested short overall survival (OS; hazard ratio [HR], 2.97; 95% CI, 1.68-5.28; p<0.001). For diagnostic value, the pooled result showed that lncRNA maintained a sensitivity of 0.89 and specificity of 0.91 in RCC diagnosis, The area under the curve of 0.94 (95% CI, 0.92-0.96) for lncRNA in RCC diagnosis also indicated a significant advantage over other biomarkers. Our systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated that lncRNAs could be considered biomarkers to detect lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis in early stages. LncRNAs could function as potential prognostic markers in RCC. LncRNAs could also display high accuracy for RCC diagnosis.

“…Interestingly, reports on VHL gene status of this cell line are inconsistent– some researchers detected no mutations [46], while others [47, 48] reported mutations in α-domain of VHL, which may imply the clear cell histology of Caki-2. Such misleading observations have led to non-uniform use of this cell line–it is now widely used both in clear cell RCC [66, 72, 73] and papillary RCC [69–71, 74] research. Finally, it is generally described as clear cell RCC by most cell banks, which may lead to misinterpretation.…”

Choosing the right cell line for renal cell cancer research

Cell lines are still a tool of choice for many fields of biomedical research, including oncology. Although cancer is a very complex disease, many discoveries have been made using monocultures of established cell lines. Therefore, the proper use of in vitro models is crucial to enhance our understanding of cancer. Therapeutics against renal cell cancer (RCC) are also screened with the use of cell lines. Multiple RCC in vitro cultures are available, allowing in vivo heterogeneity in the laboratory, but at the same time, these can be a source of errors. In this review, we tried to sum up the data on the RCC cell lines used currently. An increasing amount of data on RCC shed new light on the molecular background of the disease; however, it revealed how much still needs to be done. As new types of RCC are being distinguished, novel cell lines and the re-exploration of old ones seems to be indispensable to create effective in vitro tools for drug screening and more.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12943-016-0565-8) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
