Cancer Name | renal cell carcinoma |

Methods | qPCR, Western blot etc. |
Sample | renal cell carcinoma tissues, cell lines (HK-2, 786-O, A498 and ACH) |
Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
Function Description | We show that THOR is expressed in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissues and established/primary human RCC cells. It was not detected in normal renal tissues nor in HK-2 and primary human renal epithelial cells. THOR silencing (by targeted siRNAs) or CRISPR/Cas9 knockout inhibited RCC cell growth, viability and proliferation in vitro. Reversely, forced over-expression of THOR promoted RCC cell survival and proliferation. IGF2BP1-regulated genes, including IGF2, GLI1 and Myc, were downregulated by THOR silencing or knockout, but they were upregulated after THOR over-expression. |
