The Effect of CacyBP/SIP on the Phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 Kinases in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
The prognosis for patients with RCC is very poor because this cancer is diagnosed mainly in the metastatic stage and is resistant to radio- and chemotherapy. According to recent research, CacyBP/SIP exhibits phosphatase activity against MAPK and may be involved in many cellular processes. This funct...

Sumario: | The prognosis for patients with RCC is very poor because this cancer is diagnosed mainly in the metastatic stage and is resistant to radio- and chemotherapy. According to recent research, CacyBP/SIP exhibits phosphatase activity against MAPK and may be involved in many cellular processes. This function has not been studied in RCC so far, so we decided to test whether CacyBP/SIP has phosphatase function against ERK1/2 and p38 in high-grade clear cell RCC. The research material consisted of fragments of clear cell RCC, whereas the comparative material consisted of the adjacent normal tissues. Immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR were used to identify the expression of CacyBP/SIP, ERK1/2, and p38. The studies showed an increase in immunoreactivity and gene expression of the parameters examined in clear cell RCC compared with normal tissues. Only in the case of ERK1/2 was it shown that the expression of the MAPK3 gene was downregulated and the MAPK1 gene was higher in clear cell RCC. These studies demonstrated that CacyBP/SIP lacked phosphatase function against ERK1/2 and p38 in high-grade clear cell RCC. Further research is needed because a better understanding of the role of CacyBP/SIP and MAPK offers hope for the treatment of urological cancer. |
