Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | renal cell carcinoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C64.9 |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot, RNAi etc. |
| Sample | cell lines (ACHN, lines A-704, 786-O and 769-P) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | WISP1-AS1 is expressed in all 20 samples of a human tissue RNA panel with the highest expression levels detected in uterus, kidney and adrenal gland. Its expression was confirmed in primary tissues of human kidneys. In addition, WISP1-AS1 is expressed at higher levels in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines compared to primary proximal tubule cells as well as in RCC lesions than in the adjacent healthy control tissue from the same patient. Using specific gapmer antisense oligonucleotides to prevent its upregulation, we show that WISP1-AS1 (1) does not influence the mRNA expression of WISP1, (2) affects transcriptional regulation by Egr-1 and E2F as revealed by RNA-sequencing, enrichment analysis and reporter assays, and (3) modulates the apoptosis-necrosis balance. |
