| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To identify potential targets in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), we performed an experiment to confirm the significance of FABP7 as a potential target and marker in ccRCC. Our immunohistochemical analysis showed that higher FABP7 expression was significantly correlated with distant metastasis and poor cancer-specific survival in ccRCC. Functional suppression of FABP7 resulted in significant growth inhibition and significant reduction of the invasive potential of a ccRCC cell line. Functional suppression of FABP6 resulted in significant growth inhibition and significant reduction of the invasive potential of another ccRCC cell line.
FABP7 and 6 could be a potential therapeutic target and diagnostic marker in metastatic ccRCC.
