ABSTRACT

Purpose Emerging evidences have demonstrated that annexin A13 (ANXA13) is closely related to the occurrence and development of malignant tumors. However, the functions and underlying molecular mechanisms of ANXA13 in Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) have not been defined. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify the potential role of ANXA13 in regulating the proliferation, migration, invasion, cell cycle, and apoptosis of ccRCC cells. Patients and methods The quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blotting was performed for detecting the ANXA13 expression in ccRCC tissues at the mRNA and protein levels, respectively. The GEPIA2 databases were used to derive data for analyzing the ANXA13 expression in pan-cancer and ccRCC clinical features. Cell Counting and colony formation assays, as well as flow cytometry, were used to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis, or cell cycle. The wound healing assay was used to evaluate the migration ability of cells, and the Trans-well assay was conducted to determine the cell invasiveness. Results ANXA13 was upregulated in ccRCC cells and human ccRCC tissues. Furthermore, siANXA13 inhibited ccRCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion and induced cell apoptosis. Conclusion ANXA13 was upregulated in ccRCC. ANXA13 promotes tumorigenic traits of ccRCC cell lines in vitro. ANXA13 is a potential novel biomarker and a potential therapeutic target in ccRCC.
