Figure Legend Snippet: RAC2 expression is upregulated in ccRCC, and is associated with various clinicopathological parameters in ccRCC tissues. The mRNA expression levels of RAC2 were obtained from TCGA dataset, which contained 72 adjacent normal tissues and 534 ccRCC tissues. (A) RAC2 expression was higher in the ccRCC tissues than in the adjacent normal tissues in the 72 paired tissues from patients with ccRCC. The mRNA expression levels of RAC2 were increased in (B) ccRCC tissues than in normal tissues in TCGA, (C) Gumz renal database, (D) Lenburg renal dataset, (E) Jones renal dataset and (F) Yusenko renal dataset. The high expression of RAC2 mRNA was associated with various clinicopathological factors: (G) T stage, (H) lymph node metastasis, (I) distant metastases, (J) TNM stage and (K) G grade. **** P<0.0001; *** P<0.001; ** P<0.01. RAC2, Rac family small GTPase 2; ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma; KIRC, kidney renal clear cell carcinoma; TCGA, The Cancer Genome Atlas; TNM, Tumor-Node-Metastasis.
Techniques Used: Expressing
Figure Legend Snippet: Association between RAC2 mRNA expression and clinicopathological parameters of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Techniques Used: Expressing
Figure Legend Snippet: High RAC2 mRNA expression is associated with poor OS in patients with ccRCC. Patient samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas were separated into two groups: Those with low RAC2 expression and those with high RAC2 expression. (A) OS of patients with ccRCC was associated with RAC2 expression. OS subanalysis in regards to RAC2 expression was conducted in subgroups of patients with ccRCC: (B) Male, (C) age ≥60 years and (D) T1 + T2 stage. RAC2, Rac family small GTPase 2; ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma; OS, overall survival.
Techniques Used: Expressing
Figure Legend Snippet: RAC2 expression may be a diagnostic biomarker in patients with ccRCC. (A) RAC2 effectively discriminated between ccRCC and paired normal tissues (AUC 0.9095; P<0.0001). Receiver operating characteristic curve subanalysis was performed with respect to the following subgroups of patients with ccRCC: (B) G grade, (C) T stage, (D) lymph node metastasis, (E) distant metastases, (F) Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage, (G) overal survival and (H) disease free survive. RAC2, Rac family small GTPase 2; ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma; AUC, area under the curve; OS, overall survival; DFS, disease-free survival.
Techniques Used: Expressing, Diagnostic Assay, Biomarker Discovery
Figure Legend Snippet: RAC2 was up-regulated in RCC cells and tissues. (A and B) Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR assays of RAC2 mRNA expression in normal renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) and renal cancer cell lines (A498, ACHN, CAKI-1, OSRC-2, 786-O), and in 50 paired tissue samples of patients with ccRCC. (C and D) Western blot assays of RAC2 expression in normal renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) and in renal cancer cell lines (A498, ACHN, CAKI-1, OSRC-2, 786-O) and in 50 paired tissue samples of ccRCC patients. (E) Immunohistochemistry for RAC2 expression in ccRCC tissues, adjacent normal tissues and renal angiomyolipoma tissues. The inset images are the lower magnification of the same tissue as that presented in the larger image of each set. Magnification, ×40 and ×200. RAC2 expression was normalized to β-actin expression. The values of each group are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. Bars represented the means of three independent experiments. **** P<0.0001; ** P<0.01 vs. HK-2. RAC2, Rac family small GTPase 2; ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Techniques Used: Reverse Transcription, Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction, Expressing, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry, Standard Deviation
Figure Legend Snippet: RAC2 regulates certain tumor-related pathways. Enrichment curves are shown for activated gene sets related to the (A) Toll like receptor, (B) JAK STAT and (C) P53 signaling pathways, (D) apoptosis, and the (E) cell cycle and (F) MAPK signal pathways. RAC2, Rac family small GTPase 2; NES, normalized enrichment score; FDR, false discovery rate; JAK, Janus kinases; STAT, signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins; MAPK, mitogen-activated protein kinase.
Techniques Used: Protein-Protein interactions
Figure Legend Snippet: RAC2 promotes the proliferation, invasion and migration of RCC cell lines in vitro . (A and B) Reverse transcription-qauntitative PCR and western blotting assays of RAC2 knockdown in ACHN and 786-O cells; β-actin was used as a loading control. (C and D) Cell counting kit-8 assays detected the effects of RAC2 knockdown on the proliferation of ACHN and 786-O cells. (E-H) Representative images of migration and invasion assays performed using ACHN and 786-O cells (magnification, ×100). Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation from three independent experiments. **** P<0.0001; *** P<0.001; ** P<0.01 and * P<0.05 vs. si-NC. RAC2, Rac family small GTPase 2; ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma; NC, negative control; si-RNA, small interfering RNA; OD value, optical density value.
