Abstract Background Syntaxin4 (STX4) gene encodes the protein STX4, a member of soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors protein, playing a vital role in cell invadopodium formation and invasion, which is associated with the malignant progression of various human cancers. However, the expression and prognostic significance of STX4 in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) remain to be investigated. Methods In this study, we collected the mRNA expression of STX4 in 535 KIRC patients from The Cancer Genome Atlasthrough the University of California Santa Cruz Xena database platform. Then we explored the expression of STX4 in KIRC, and the relationship with clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic value. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes function enrichment analyses were used to explore the potential mechanism of STX4 in KIRC. qRT-PCR analysis was performed toverify the above results with real world tissue specimens. Results The results indicated that STX4 was up-expressed in KIRC, and were associated with higher histological grade, advanced stage, and poorer prognosis. Moreover, elevated STX4 expression is an independent risk factor for KIRC. qRT-PCR analysis showed that STX4 was significantly elevated in 10 paired of KIRC samples compared to normal samples. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that endo/exocytosis, autophagy, mTOR signaling pathway, and NOD-like receptor signaling pathway were enriched. Conclusions In summary, STX4 is constantly up-expressed in KIRC tissues, associated with a poor prognosis. We suggest that it can be an effective biomarker for the prognosis of KIRC and may be a novel therapeutic target in KIRC.

Abstract Background: Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is the most common renal cell carcinoma types. This work aims to find potential diagnostic biomarkers and explore the biological functions related to the prognosis of KIRC. Method: First, Gene expression profiles of GSE15641, GSE72304, GSE71963, GSE53757, and GSE36895 from GEO database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by the limma package in R software. Next, gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome (KEGG) pathway analysis were performed. Then protein-protein interaction (PPI) and hub genes were visualized by Cytoscape with STRING database. Then, we evaluate the predictive potential of hub genes expressions in KIRC with TCGA data. In addition, the relevant biological functions were identified using GSEA. Finally, we examined the differences of hub genes expression between multiple tumor tissues and normal tissues.Results: A total of 141 DEGs (including 99 upregulated and 42 downregulated genes) were identified. GO analysis indicated that DEGs were mainly involved in oxidation-reduction process and response to hypoxia. The KEGG analysis primarily related to PPAR signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway. Moreover, the PPI analysis revealed 5 hub genes (AOX1, ALDH6A1, ABAT, HADH, and PCCA). The 5 hub genes were significantly correlated with KIRC progression and might have prognostic significance for KIPC patients. And low expression of the hub genes associated biological pathways were enriched in the NF-KB activation, focal adhesion, and JAK-STAT signaling pathway, respectively. Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that AOX1, ALDH6A1, ABAT, HADH, and PCCA can be used as prognostic biomarkers for KIRC.

There has been an increase in the mortality rate and morbidity of kidney cancer (KC) with kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) being the most common subtype of KC. GRAMD1C (GRAM Domain Containing 1C) has not been reported to relate to prognosis and immunotherapy in any cancers. Using bioinformatics methods, we judged the prognostic value of GRAMD1C expression in KIRC and investigated the underlying mechanisms of GRAMD1C affecting the overall survival of KIRC based on data downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The outcome revealed that reduced GRAMD1C expression could be a promising predicting factor of poor prognosis in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma. Meanwhile, GRAMDIC expression was significantly correlated to several tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs), particularly the regulatory T cells (Tregs). Furthermore, GRAMD1C was most significantly associated with the mTOR signaling pathway, RNA degradation, WNT signaling pathway, toll pathway and AKT pathway in KIRC. Thus, GRAMD1C has the potential to become a novel predictor to evaluate prognosis and immune infiltration for KIRC patients.

Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is the most common primary renal neoplasms. Currently, there are few molecular indicators and therapeutic targets that can be used in diagnostic and prognostic assessment. In this study, we identified the C19orf10 expression in KIRC specimens and explored the diagnostic and prognostic value of C19orf10 in KIRC using TCGA and CPTAC database. Loss-of- and gain-of- function of C19orf10 was performed to investigate the roles of C19orf10 on KIRC cell viability, proliferation, migration and invasion via CCK-8, Edu incorporation and Transwell assays respectively. C19orf10 was overexpressed in KIRC tissues and the elevated C19orf10 expression was closely associated with clinicopathological characteristics of KIRC including histological grade, TNM stage, metastatic status. Silencing C19orf10 significantly suppressed the viability, proliferation, migration and invasion ability, while overexpression of C19orf10 promoted the progression and malignant phenotype in KIRC cells. Furthermore, C19orf10 exerted its carcinogenic function by regulating ZO-1 and PTEN/Akt signaling pathway. Moreover, the Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, Cox regression analysis and receiver operating curve analysis showed that patients with C19orf10 overexpression have poor survival time. C19orf10 could discriminate KIRC patients with high-risk from low-risk. Taken together, C19orf10 contributes to KIRC development via ZO-1 and PTEN/Akt signaling pathway and C19orf10 could serve as a potential diagnostic and prognostic candidate and therapeutic target of KIRC.
