ABSTRACT
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a highly recurrent aggressive tumor. This study works for the regulation of miR-21-5p on RCC cell functions and novel ideas for therapies of RCC. Isoform expression quantification data were offered by The Cancer Genome Atlas Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA-KIRC) to investigate differentially expressed miRNAs. The way miR-21-5p works on biological functions of RCC was examined with MTT and Transwell assays. The downstream targets of miR-21-5p were predicted using bioinformatics analysis. The binding of two researched objects was verified by the dual-luciferase method. TCGA data manifested a considerably high level of miR-21-5p in RCC tissue, while ARHGAP24 was significantly lowly expressed. miR-21-5p bound ARHGAP24 and stimulated RCC cell functions, whereas ARHGAP24 mimic could reverse such promotion. This work observed miR-21-5p, a stimulator in RCC, and it deteriorated this cancer via repressing its downstream target gene ARHGAP24 expression.
